Didn't work. Tried running as admin and xp service pack 2 compatibility and that didn't work either.

Hey sno0ks,

Thanks for reaching out, sorry to hear that didn't work for you.

May we please know more about what issue you have when attempting to launch the game?

And have you attempted any further troubleshooting steps such as those in our guide here[ubi.li]?

I'd already tried run as admin and checking compatibility mode. This was the change that got everything working. Thanks!

I can't run it too. The game starts, resolution is changing and then game goes down to the taskbar. I hear 2 seconds of lagged intro music. And the game shutdown itself. I tried every single method. Changing compatibility, turning off the overlay, running as administrator. And other few things. OMG

I tried to run it with +datacachesize "128" +map_background none -novid. And it dont shutdown the game no more. But it is frozen on the first screen with game logo. And it minimalize itself to the taskbar every time I click it.

I can't launch the game. A few weeks ago everything was working fine.

I changed resolution in Windows to 1280 x 720 and the game started to run.

Hi !

I've taken note of your message, and I'm glad to hear that the game is running with the steps you found !

Wookash1111, can you let us know if the problem persists after setting the Windows resolution to 1280x720 before launching the game ?

Runs with no problems and steam overlay in 1080p under Win11.
I see no reason why it should not run under win10

Always have a look in the Guide section of Steam

Thanks for noting this EvilReFlex!

There's never a guarantee it'll run, so we like to help where we can.

I'd also recommend compatibility mode[ubi.li] if anyone's having issues too!
