Issues fixed

Various fixes can be found in the Steam Users' Forum FAQ by the developer.

Language Settings

Launch Property • Link In order to force a specific language add -lang en to the shortcut of Bastion. Instead of "en" you can use "fr", "it","de", and "es". For the Steam version: Find Bastion in your list of Steam games Right click on it Select Properties Select Set Launch Options... In the text field put -lang language-name, "language-name" can be any of the languages listed above

Lost Savegames

Move saves to new location • Link When starting the game, all or some save games are missing. Search all the Save game locations and find the most recent ones. Copy these most recent Saves to all the other save game locations. You may have to create some which are missing (Make sure you only create ones that are relevant to your operating system!) Now your save games should appear again the next time you launch the game.

Game Crashes During Launch

Close the MSI Afterburner overlay (Windows) • Link When you launch the game it goes through the intro screens and then crashes before you are able to do anything. In the taskbar, right click on MSI Afterburner and click Close. You may need to click show hidden icons to see the icon. Other overlays such as Mumble or Fraps may apparently cause the same issue, so try disabling those as well.

Bugs

Dual Monitor Resolution Bug (Windows) • Link If you run multiple monitors and try to alt+tab out of this game before properly exiting, then your visible screen will contract to a very small portion of the normal resolution. At this point the resolution can only be fixed by restarting your operating system. Note: Deactivate any additional monitors before launching the game.
