Re: Game Wont work
What version of the game did you buy? The one from Steam, the one from GOG, or the one from the official website?

Post your system specs.
Windows version:
CPU:
RAM:
GPU:
DirectX version
any Anti-Virus software active?
are you using a notebook?
look for a folder called "crashlogs" where you installed FTL and see if there's anything there.

Re: Game Wont work
Then you must have one of these two directories on your computer. This is where the game executable and data are stored:
- C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\FTL Faster Than Light
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FTL Faster Than Light
Do you know how to display them and look at what they contain? There should be three interesting things in there:
- stdout.txt (file)
- stderr.txt (file)
- crashlogs (directory)
Can you copy/paste the contents of stdout.txt and stderr.txt in this forum? (stderr.txt might be empty, this is not a problem).
Also, are there any files in the crashlogs directory? If yes, can you copy/paste the most recent on in this forum?

Re: Game Wont work
Can you open the stdout.txt file in that directory, and post the contents in this thread?
