1. Wrong forum section.

2. When you have the error window active press Ctrl+C key combination. It will copy the error message to clipboard so you'll be able to paste it here or paste it to the forum search field.

Why?

Rightclick the start icon, select properties - make sure the target line looks like this:

 

X:\Ka-50\bin\x86\stable\launcher.exe --console

 

Also make sure that it is executed in the root directory, the line below the above should read:

 

X:\Ka-50

I started getting a similar problem. When I double click the desktop icon for Single Player, the console window comes up briefly and disappears right away. Launcher.exe continues to run in the task manager, but nothing else happens.

 

Each time I click on the icon, it starts another Launcher.exe process.

 

I recently installed an ASUS 6950 card and upgraded drivers to 11.1. It's been running great for a while, then suddenly this happened.

 

One thing I noticed is that you can no longer disable Catalyst AI in 11.1 drivers (which I had to do in the past due to similar problems).

 

Any idea why this would suddenly stop working? BTW Multi Player starts just fine.

Have you ensured that you either start as administrator or have UAC turned off?

Yes, tried both with same result.

 

EDIT: I see this all over the forums:

"If you are running an ATI GPU, Disable the Catalyst A.I. "

 

With the new drivers required for the Radeon HD6950, this option is no longer available. What is one supposed to do?

 

Will I have to go back to HD4850 to get this working again?

EtherialN, do you have any other suggestions I could try?

 

Could it simply be that I need to reactivate my license with the new hardware since I've changed my video card?

Don't do this. Keep the "--console" thing.

I only removed "--console" to see if any error message would be shown, then I put it back. My biggest problem is that no error message is shown and no logs are written to the \Temp\ folder.

 

The launcher.exe starts and hangs, while the command console appears and immediately disappeared. Not a single clue as to what might be wrong. :huh:

 

EDIT: Looks like an uninstall/reinstall of patch 1.02 solved the problem. I'm a little nervous of what caused the problem in the first place, but at least I can fly again!!
