Help needed with - walkingdead101.exe has stopped working

edited November 2013 in Game Support

Playing game late last night.

Just went to start the game for another go and got the error, "walkingdead101.exe has stopped working"

I have tried running in compatibility mode and as admin with no results.

My computer data file as requested for aid is located:

Please advise.

    Problem signature:
    P1: WalkingDead101.exe
    P4: DINPUT8.dll

    On Windows 8 the game crashes if joysticks/gamepads are connected. That bug is fixed in Windows 8.1, available for free in the Windows 8 Store.
    If you don't want to upgrade yet, you can try an unofficial workaround. In short, by downloading and extracting this zip file, and copying the dinput8.dll next to the WalkingDead101.exe, you should be able to use the controller normally. Make sure you delete that dinput8.dll after updating to Windows 8.1, to avoid possible problems in the future.
