Fixing Prototype Game Loading Crash Issue

Methods (fix's way)

• Metod 1
• Metod 2

---

When launching the Prototype game, some users experience a problem where the game gets stuck at the loading screen and then abruptly closes. Below are two methods to fix this issue.

---

Method 1: Create a Custom Launcher Script

Step 1:
Navigate to your Prototype game installation folder.

Step 2:
Create a new text file named Launcher.txt in the game directory.

Step 3:
Open Launcher.txt and paste the following code:

@echo off
cd /d "%~dp0"
start /affinity F prototypef.exe

Explanation:

• @echo off: Hides command lines for cleaner output.
• cd /d "%~dp0": Changes the directory to the location of the script (Prototype folder).
• start /affinity F prototypef.exe: Launches the game with specific CPU affinity to stabilize performance and prevent the loading crash.

Step 4:
Rename the file extension from .txt to .bat so it becomes launcher.bat.

Step 5:
Run the game using launcher.bat instead of the original game launcher.
