IWBTG won't start?
« on: August 15, 2014, 03:09:57 am »
So I've downloaded the frameskip version of IWBTG, and whenever I try to start it, nothing happens. I've tried:

  • Double clicking the executable
  • Running as admin
  • Downloading the slo-mo version
  • Redownloading frameskip

I have 64-bit Windows 7.

Thanks.

Try running it in compatibility mode. Right click the executable and select "Troubleshoot compatibility". Choose "Troubleshoot problem" and select "I don't see my problem listed" followed by "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" and then "I don't see my problem listed" again. Then launch the program on the prompt afterwards. If it doesn't work, well, I dunno then.

When I try to troubleshoot, it immediately ends saying there was nothing wrong. I've tried going into Properties > Compatibility and changing compatibility mode from there, if that's the same.

Slomo has the exact same problem.

Is there a way to run it in compatability mode via right-clicking?

Yes, you do it by right-clicking, going to Properties, and then going to the Compatibility tab.

MMF2 has a LOT of compatibility issues with Windows 8 and 7. Try (if you haven't) to choose at compatibility "Windows 9x/ME"

Hope that helps  :fruit:  :fruit:  :fruit:
