I have run into crash between levels in Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena . Continue game -> crash.
My support request

That sounds familiar. I had an issue with something else I can't even remember now. The only thing I remember was never getting a reply to whatever it was. They must have closed it too because I only have one open ticket, the one for Dirt Showdown now.
I did a little homework on this problem and found a Mac user in the Steam forum complaining about the same issue. What is much worse though is I also found more than one Windows user complaining about it which I think probably means certain doom here. I have no idea what might cause it in Windows but it only affects some people not everyone so it has to be some sort of configuration problem. But what? Who knows? I doubt VP does. I doubt Codemasters cares. I think I am probably out of luck here. Even I am starting to not care about this now.
Ah, so many problems and so little time.
There's nothing new under the sun though is there? I mean, for so long as I have been using software I have experienced random problems with software. To quote a line from Jerry Seinfeld, "it's like an infinity wheel of hell." I should know by now for a very long time that once I hit an issue and cannot resolve it in a short time I should simply bail, uninstall and go do something else. It's not like my paycheck depends on making this crap work anymore thankfully.
Considering the problems I've read about with VP ports I think I will avoid anything they touch in the future. I waste enough time already without any help from them. Since I foolishly purchased a bunch of games they did I will be sure to post about the fun of attempting to play them as I get to them. I may as well have a few laughs I guess.
