Haven't played in 7 years... decided to come back, game crashes immediately when trying to launch in Windows 10.... does this game run under Win 10?
Haven't played in 7 years... decided to come back, game crashes immediately when trying to launch in Windows 10.... does this game run under Win 10?
I got it to run by lowering the resolution. Does the game not support 2560 x 1440 x 32? It is listed as an option but won't run with those settings.
Are you running the old client or the new client ?
Are you running it fullscreen, or windowed borderless ?
The old client supports a maximum resolution of 2048x1536.
220s "Wakizaka", "Sneakygank", "Wakimango", "Wakisolja", "Tardersauce", "Bushwaki", "Midgetgank", "Bugfixxx", "Ramsbottom", "Paskadoc"

I'm running it in Win10, 2560 x 1440 x 32, in borderless window, new client. Works well enough. The new client still has bugs and crashes from time to time (and almost certainly in certain places) but for me it works better overall than the old one.

Thanks for the help everyone! I haven't even tried the new client. Downloading now...
Does the new engine support DX12? It keeps prompting me for wanting Ver. 9.
Edit: Never mind, I'm stupid.

A) I vouch for this. On Nvidia my crashes went from average of hourly, regardless of activity, to none over 12 hours dual logged.
B) FUNCOM ... you need to pay this man. Or at least put a link to this video in the launcher.
Maybe an "!if ($new_engine = 1) { show_youtube_link; }" or something. Whatever. But given I can't be the only person who came back to see the new engine and almost left because of the crashes ... it would be a service.
Or at least redo the information in your own format. Anything to get the word out.
C) Honestly the video deserves it's own thread. I came here to search for it's link to make sure it was posted on the forums but there isn't a quick thread purely about it that I found with a simple search. Seems to just be in your massive thread o' knowledge and in a couple of Win10 threads.
PS. Thanks.
