Title: Game won't start
Post by: Jestal on August 30, 2019, 12:37:01 pm

As the title suggests. I installed x64, as I run Windows 10 x64 and the launcher will not open. Analyzing my task manager, it opens up in tasks and closes a few seconds after. I tried compatibility mode and run as admin with different previous windows versions and the same outcome persists. So, I attempted to uninstall and reinstall, follow the same steps only to reach the same issue. As a result, I uninstalled x64 and attempted to run x32. Same issue. Did the same potential fixes and no such luck. Is there a workaround for this?

You must install the game as admin. Right-click the download and run as admin.

My best advice is toggle VBO on or off in the launcher settings if it's crashing  upon start up.
Others might have better advice.

Hit the dev's up on chat. There is a way to bypass the launcher but I don't remember how we dd it. It might well have been when I was running Linux.
