Hey Ramo1000,
I'm going to re-post another post I wrote about. Please try these steps below and see if it works:
So I followed the instructions provided here by Roone and it worked! No lies, it worked. I deleted the "bundle data" and the "manifesttime.txt" file and it worked. This happened a few weeks ago. Just tonight after working it happened again! DH 2014 froze again at the Glu icon and didn't load. So I did the same thing again and now it's working again! Please give this a try and I hope it works for you.
Thanks Roone!
FOR ADVANCED USERS ONLY:
For those using iOS, have version 1.2.1 and are hanging on launch of the game try these steps.
1. Download iExplorer from http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/
2. Install iExplorer
3. Launch iExplorer. Select continue to use in Demo Mode
4. Connect iOS device. If device has a password enter it on the device and have device on home screen before device will load in iExplorer
5. Double Click Apps
6. Double Click DH 2014 folder
7. Double Click Library
8. Delete the below FOLDER
Apps/DH 2014/Library/BundleData
9. Double Click Caches
10. Delete the below file
a. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/manifesttime.txt
11. Launch the game
If that works great! If not try also deleting this additional files.
a. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/Manifest
b. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/manifesttime.txt
c. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/ABTestConfig.txt
d. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/GluonConfig.txt
e. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/Killswitch.txt
f. 1 file. Apps/DH 2014/Library/Caches/MissionSettings.txt
Please reply here if that fixes it for you. If it worked if just the one file worked or you had to do the whole list.
Thanks for helping us verify this fix!
Update: DH crashed on me again earlier and I tried this and it fixed it again.
Are you the one to come up with this solution?
If so, how did you determine what was wrong?
There is a thread on it here from one of the devs, though it was for an earlier issue. If it's working for these newer issues, that's great to hear: http://ggnbb.glu.com/showthread.php?89634-DH14-UPDATE-v-1-2-1-live-on-iOS-Fixes-hanging-saving-and-more&p=133419#post133419
This update should fix the Gluman hangs without having to do it manually. Please let us know if it still will not load after getting 1.2.2.
The router/hosts blocking certain AD websites and or filtering web traffic will cause the game to close exactly as described above. Disable your WEB filtering/Url Blocking or check if your connection or location has a UTM Router or is blocking web traffic/ads. As soon as I turned off web filtering game started fine, turn it back on crash at the GLU logo or checking updates.
I believe blocking an advertising site should definitely not cause a game like this to not start up, its ridiculous.
Hey there! Great feedback. Code team has a couple of questions to help us narrow this down.
Do we know if it:
1) Crashes to home screen or
2) Hangs forever on the glu-man
3) Proceed to CHECKING FOR UPDATES (and if so, does it animate or freeze)
4) Plays music or not (and does the music get stuck/loop)
Thanks for your help!
