Crash on startup

Postby Woldking2 » Sat Sep 22, 2012 10:50 pm

Hi,
I just bought FTL, and when I try to start it up, it gets to LOADING and then crashes. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Can you provide us with more details?

- What operating system do you use (Windows, Mac, Linux), which version, is it 32-bits or 64-bits?
- If on Windows, in the installation directory of FTL, what do the files stdout.txt and stderr.txt contain?
- If on Linux (and also maybe Mac), try to run the game from a command-line, what does it display in that case?
- In the installation directory of FTL, is there any file in the crashlogs subdirectory?
