Help HoN crashes when updating

[RedBear 27]

Greetings.

HoN x32 crashes every time it try to update. 

However, if I delete startup.cfg file from "C:\Users\RedBear\Documents\Heroes of Newerth\game" it is updated without any problems.

It really annoys me. Is there any way to solve this problem at the developer level?

Thanks.

My update has error at 69% in the download...every time. Not trolling, always at 69%.

That's probably a different issue, you should instead open a different thread for it.
And you should probably click on the "more details" button and get error messages.

Coincidentially I'm investigating which files are missing on the update/repair servers, so I can probably tell you if that's "normal" once you tell me which file is not downloading at 69%

Assuming it doesn't crash with a fresh startup.cfg, I'd keep the new one.  You could copy & paste keybinds over as it's probably not that.

There are a couple of different updater flaws that can cause this but it's probably a failed update.  In such cases, those files get stuck in Heroes of Newerth x64/Update and the updater can't overwrite them.  So delete the folder.

My game still crashes on update after removing startup.cfg. I havent been able to update the game in months - would REALLY love a fix right about now :p
