Game wont start
-
So the client runs, but the game itself just crashes instantly?
If that is the case, you should have some game_XXXXXXXX.log files in your log folder.
(found here)
That might help to understand why the game crashed

This is what it says in the log
-
@ceasersmum That's an Ice-Adapter log (for debugging connection problems)
Game log should look something like this
and you can just drag/drop the file into the reply window (no quick reply) then we get the whole file. -
@nex I don't have anything that looks like that
-
the bottom game one doesn't have anything in it
-
@ceasersmum Then drop the client log in here
maybe it contains some more info than what you posted -
-
-
Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin\ForgedAlliance.exe" (in directory "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin"): CreateProcess error=740, The requested operation requires elevation
Did you run the client as admin once? that might break things.
try deleting the directory C:\ProgramData\FAForever and restart the client with your current user, then try to launch a game. -
@nex I did, I will give that a try
-
@nex Unfortunately that didn't work. thank you for helping, is there anything else I can do?
-
So same error?
try running the client as admin
if that works it's definitely a permission issue, if that also doesn't work then there must be something else -
That worked but now its crashing
-
can you get a game log now?
-
-
mh nothing out of the ordinary in there
try deleting/renaming your game.prefs file
(found here)
Maybe the settings are corrupt
Then try to launch the game through steam once. -
@nex I tried deleting it but that didn't work game_21158904.log
-
@ceasersmum isn't that log older than the other one?
Did starting it through steam work normally?
-
@nex That was the newest log I checked the time stamp on it. Yes opens completely normally and works through steam
