Hello, the runtime library fails to initialize something. Game.log content is needed.

The problem is just that the game won't start without a keyboard.

So it works with keyboard plugged-in?

From what it looks like, using a proper USB 3.0 to C converter should allow you to have a keyboard which might solve your problems. Consider also adding a mouse in the mix with a USB hub

similar issue with Cryinput.dll on my 2017 MacBook Air with a custom precision touchpad driver, I have to switch to the default Apple drivers then back to open Crysis or the Editor (same result unpatched)

Similar issue on Windows 11 PC.

Game.log

Well, this is something else.

Engine crashes because it cannot save Documents/My Games/Crysis/Profiles/default/profile.xml due to an invalid path. The problem is also visible at the beginning of the log:

User directory: c:\users\maxtr\onedrive\?????????\my games/crysis

Crysis is an old application and it doesn't handle paths with non-ASCII characters well.

I think in your case, you need to either fix the name of your Documents folder, so it doesn't contain special characters, or change the user directory that Crysis uses. Luckily, c1-launcher has -userpath for that. Create an empty directory that is writable without admin rights ("Program Files" where the game is installed is not). For example, C:\Crysis and then run the game with -userpath C:\Crysis.

By the way, thanks for the report. This is something that definitely needs to be fixed as well. It seems modern Windows puts Documents into OneDrive under some weird directory name. I suspect localization is the problem here. English version of Windows 11 works fine:

User directory: C:\Users\dhryz\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\Crysis

Appreciate the quick response!
Renaming the OneDrive folder to "Documents" did the trick and the game was able to create the folder C:\Users\maxtr\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\Crysis

Weirdly, this non-ASCII folder name in OneDrive is some throwback to having the Microsoft account first created while overseas a couple decades ago. The actual Windows 11 install is US/English.
