Just started playing the game. Not far in, but not bad so far.. however...
I can't fight Sergei. I mean, I can fight him, but the game locks up when I get the underdog achievement.
So far to fix this I have. Tried fight manual vs skip. Same result.
I have fought Duncan,no issues.
I have re-downloaded the game completely (Viking files) no change.
I tried to fight him first on Thursday of the first week. I had to skip time to get to 22:00. I read skipping time causing this with achievements sometimes, so. I tried to just move around the map until 22:00 after her board meeting. Same result.
I tried to fight him on Friday since it was after 22:00 when your done with Annabells art class. Same thing.
I do not use any mods. I was using the Incest mod, but on my new download of the game, never used it.
Any ideas? Soon as underdog pops up, its locked up. have to alt-f4

Can you upload your save and your player log from when that happens?
Your log is located at...
C:\Users\{your name}\AppData\LocalLow\Faerin Games\Midnight Sin

Here you go.
I found out, I can scroll text back to the sentence he says before that, but nothing else works.

First thing, did you extract the game to a new folder, or did you overwrite files?
I would also suggest trying to move the game folder out of Downloads (and only have one Midnight Sin folder deep).

No overwriting anything when I did the fresh download.
Ok i'll try a new extract to new folder outside of downloads and let you know what I find

Don't use the following folders to extract the game to:
C:\Program Files
C:\Program Files (x86)
C:\Users
C:\Windows

This will avoid any issues with the game, including but not limited to write protection.

Okay, the first thing I noticed in the log is the path (as in the folder is in triplicate).
G:\Midnight_Sin\Midnight Sin v0.8.1\Midnight Sin v0.8.1
Try using just G:\Midnight Sin v0.8.1
Next, try using 1920x1080 as your resolution. It appears you are using 2560x1440.

Please let me know if the problem persists.

Same result. I don't have time now, but i'm going to try to download from a different site (other than viking) and see what happens.)
I did manage to get the brawler achievement, which caused no issues.

A few things you can try:
  • Disabling V Sync in your Nvidia control panel (should be in "Manage 3D Settings").
  • Make sure the drivers for your video card are up to date.
  • And as a last resort, make sure you have the latest Visual C++ Redistributable runtimes installed. Go and download the all-in-one pack from a mirror site closest to you. Extract all of the files to a temporary folder (which you can delete after installing), then run the included "install_all.bat" file.
  • Go into Control Panel >> "Device Manager" >> "Display adapters". If you have more than one device showing, disable it.
Please let me know if any of those worked for you.
