Game loading 99%

  • Error Message: 99% loading

  • Details:

Here’s the problem. The game was working fine today initially. I wanted to enable the “Smart Zoi” feature. But after enabling it, the game showed me something like “Configuration file is not available to you”, or “File is not available to you”, or something similar. And the feature automatically turned off.

Then I completely deleted all configuration files in AppData — both saves, logs, config, and so on. I also deleted all files in “Documents”.

And now when I launch the game, it loads the cache up to 99% and that’s it. I waited 2 hours and it’s still stuck at 99%.

I completely reinstalled the game. I also verified the game integrity in Steam. I updated the graphics card drivers.

Launching as administrator doesn’t help. For some reason, when I try that method, the game says “Failed to authenticate through Steam, restart Steam”.

SteamDiagnostics.log (6.7 KB)

Here are the logs, if those are the right ones.

I also deleted these folders:

  • [NVIDIA]

    • C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\NVIDIA\DXCache
    • C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\NVIDIA\DXCache
    • C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\D3DSCache
  • C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\NVIDIA\PerDriverVersion\DXCache I didn’t have this folder.

But not all files from the folder were deleted, because some files are used by other applications.

I’m not sure if it will help, but let’s try this way (You didn’t mention that you deleted it, so I think it’s still there) Open the folder:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\BlueClient\Saved\Config\Windows

There are files GameUserSettings.ini and B1GameUserSettings.ini

Find the following parameters in them, and if they’re set to 1 - change the values to 0 to match what’s shown below:

SmartZoiActive=0
SmartZoiAutonomyActive=0

I deleted the “BlueClient” folder earlier too, I just forgot to mention that I deleted the entire folder, not just the configs and saves.

The problem was solved just now, one time.

  1. Deleted the game

  2. Deleted the BlueClient folder in Appdata.

  3. And the nvidia cache.

  4. After that I restarted the computer and reinstalled the game. And it launched that way in the end.

But it only launched 1 time, because the game settings were reset to default. I set the game to low graphics, and restarted the game, and now again the loading stops at 99%.(((

SmartZoiActive=0
SmartZoiAutonomyActive=0

Everything is like this, as they are disabled by default. I don’t think this feature is related.

B1GameUserSettings.ini And I don’t have such a file

I don’t understand what kind of problem suddenly appeared, it never happened before.

Unfortunately, I don’t want to delete and reload everything again just to launch the game once right now)

I want to clarify that the problem appeared when loading the game precisely because of deleting the “BlueClient” folder, not because of enabling the “Smart Zoi” feature.

Then try experimenting with the values in the first section of the file. Lower the 4s and 3s by one point each (currently set to ultra, except for shadows) — and you’ll get “quality”. Lower by one more point — and you’ll have “balance”.

sg.ViewDistanceQuality=4
sg.PostProcessQuality=4
sg.ShadowQuality=3
sg.AntiAliasingQuality=4
sg.GlobalIlluminationQuality=4
sg.ReflectionQuality=4
sg.TextureQuality=4
sg.EffectsQuality=4
sg.FoliageQuality=4
sg.ShadingQuality=4

Now I deleted all .ini files in AppData\Local\BlueClient\Saved\Config\Windows

Result. The game launched the same way. Then I restarted the game without changing the settings, and the game launched the same way.

However, if I change the graphics settings to minimum, then loading gets stuck at 99% again.

And I noticed that only after changing the settings to “MINIMUM”, the engine.ini file appears, which contains only 1 line about ray tracing. And its value is “0”.

I deleted it. And the game launched with minimum graphics as I had set it before.
The problem was probably in that file. Since the game wouldn’t launch completely right after it appeared.

Now please help me enable “Smart Zones”. When the game came out I was able to enable it. But now the game displays this when I try to enable it.

I don’t understand what this means. It never happened before
