Game does not launch

[xTopaz]

Hi, I tried to update to 0.4.0 and I can launch the first time through the installer but after that when I click the icon nothing happens. 0.3.5.1 is working fine. When I click on -verbose the cmd window pops up but then closes, also there is nothing in the crash folder in my documents. I have tried turning off my antivirus to see if that was interfering and that did not help. I am using windows 10.

I am also having the exact same issue. I have no fix yet either.

Can you both download the newest develop build from here: https://openrct2.org/downloads/develop . You’ll want an installer build, and most likely x64.

Just tried v0.4.0-697fa7c and that does not work.

I have the same issue, tried reinstalling everything but it just doesn't launch.

Windows 11

(gog version of the game works)

I've tried running it verbose with 

openrct2.exe --verbose > log.txt 2>&1

But the log is blank

Had a similar issue; was able to circumvent it by launching 0.3.5.1, specifying the target directory so it would read the game data, then overwriting it with 0.4.0 files. Presumably whatever the issue is, it prevents the 0.4.0 executable from opening the "choose game data folder" window to begin with but it launches fine once the data is copied.

0.3.5.1 works perfectly fine but when I upgrade to 0.4.0 it doesn't run anymore

Now I have the same problem on my laptop, gog version of the base game and from version 0.4.0 game doesn't launch anymore. Have anyone found a solution?
On the desktop I reinstalled windows and now the game works but I don't plan of doing it on the laptop.
Thank you
