[SOLVED] RMVXAce Won't open!

[Foron]

I've had RPG Maker VX Ace for less than 24 Hours, and it's doing something weird...

1. I click the icon on my taskbar.

2.It takes A LOT longer to load, then just crashes... It does the same thing when I opened it up from steam for desktop shortcuts!

HELP!

...also, I've heard about some kind of steam key...

FIXED!

 

[Foron]

If I reinstall it, will I have to pay for it again?

 

[Lars Ulrika]

If you have the product key of course not. 

 

[Foron]

Oh. well, I just reinstalled it and it still won't work.

Btw, I'm using Steam, if that helps.

I had problems using the Steam version at first. For me, if I go to the Steam icon on my taskbar and click once, it was RPGM at the top. When I had problems with it opening, if I used that it seemed to open.

I really don't know why I stopped having problems (perhaps a Steam update?) but this is how I worked around it when I did.

So far, this error has been only reported with the steam version - and in all cases where it was solved, it was discovered to be a problem with steam data synchronisation.
1) if you have choosen any download from the steam workshop, deselesct everything until you can start the editor again, and then only add single parts from the workshop, allowing them to download and start the game before adding the next object.


2) deselect the steam cloud synchronisation in the program properties


then try again

Deselected, didn't work.

Didn't work for me...

Switch steam to offline-mode and test if RM works then - if yes, you need to wait until the synchronisation (with as few opjects as possible) succeeds. If not, you need to check what other programs might block RM from execution - there are some antivirus programs that do this, or perhaps another background program.
