Crash Before Launcher
I can't even get to the launcher before I get an error message. I get an error message that says, "System.InvalidOperationException: Sequence contains no element
at FF8_Launcher.FF8ConfigFile.WriteDefaultFile(String path)
at FF8_Launcher.FF8ConfigFile.Read(String Path)
at FF8_Launcher.FF8Launcher..ctor()
at FF8_Launcher.Program.Main()"

If anyone knows of a fix, please let me know.

I solved it by creating "config.txt".
If there is no "config.txt" file in the following folder, please create it.
hope your problem will be solved.

I’m an idiot when it comes to this stuff. How do I go about adding this?

Just go to Documents > My Games> Final Fantasy VIII Remastered > Steam > (random numbers)

When you create the config.txt file, right click an empty spot, go down to new, create a text document, and name it config (do not add .txt at the end).

After that, start the game up and it should work. You'll need to manually edit the config file however to get the settings you want.

This new config.txt still be empty ?

Once you start the game, it will auto populate. You will need to open it to configure your settings.

Just FYI, 0 = Full screen, 1 = Borderless, 2 = Windowed
