RA2 Crashing on startup
« on: January 20, 2016, 05:40:22 PM »
When I try to open the game, it starts loading like normal, but before any screens appear, the process ends... This happened in Stock 1.4, download version, and DSL 2.2... any advice?

yeah. No error message, no nothing. It just flashes the process is not responding screen, then closes without any permission.

It did, but I just restarted my computer and everything works fine. I even reopened my antivirus software to see if it was blocking the game, and it still worked. I have no idea what might have caused it....

EDIT: I know that there's a glitch where opening a bot with certain statistics and then opening another one crashes the game. Maybe this has something to do with a glitch with what I did to the game the last time I ran it?
