LogCore: Engine exit requested (reason: SteamAPI failed to initialize, conditions not met)
Verify game files in Steam and remove any and all mods (if you use them), restart Steam client and ensure the game or Steam are not running with mismatched permissions (as admin on one of the executable).
weird. Verified few times. Let me try again.
btw no mods in the files
Same issue
hello! Is it the first time you are laucnhing the game> Or have you played before?
Following. Still haven’t figured out my permission issue
Hi Drake, so apparently reinstalling fixed the issue for now. Will check again today
Hi @bold loom/@frosty wraith still having the same issue again
As Arc pointed out earlier it is the same SteamAPI failed to initialize, conditions not met issue in the log.
From my own monitoring you are so far the only one with this particular issue.
Do you have custom Steam client maybe ? Modified files in any way ?
Have you tried to completely uninstall the game, the demo and remove all leftover files manually ? (both in %LOCALAPPDATA% as well as from installation directory)
I do have the demo folder. but no modified files whatsoever
Worth a try for uninstalling both and clearing out every folder.
ok I may have found a workaround. After verifying the files We need to put engine.ini at %AppData%\Local\R5\Saved\Config\Windows
every time we quit the game, it will remove the file
so if it doesn't open next time, we need to put it there again
Hi, I think this may be a coincidence as this file was only supposed to add more detailed logs so that we can see if there was a specific game asset causing trouble
I think I saw a similar bug where someone launched the game as administrator, while the steam was started as regular user
Did you launch the game from outside steam?
Nope. After the bug, I'm starting from steam
I believe the culprit was steam overlay. Disabled it. Now running fine so far
