PR Launcher doesn't open on Win 8.1
Hi, i start saying that my english it's not good
. Anyway i have just downloaded V 1.3.5 Standalone. When i double click the icon of PR the pc starts to load the launcher but later a few seconds nothing happen and it stops to load it. I have tried too much things that i have read in the forums but nothing is helping me. I tried too to start it from the folder by clicking on PRB2.exe, at that time it starts but say that i must run it from the launcher and i can only exit, if i start from PRB2launcher, happen the same thing of ever: it starts to load but nothing. I tried too with changing the compatibility. Please help me im new and i like too much this game, i'd like too much to play it

Re: PR Launcher doesn't open on Win 8.1
Go to Documents/projectreality/profiles/default/video check resolution is the same as your system.
Launcher is here on mine you can maybe remove the Games bit it auto installs in Program files iirc:
C:\Games\PR\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe run as admin
Check and rerun the installer for the three stooges, C++, directX and .Net
What OS are you, what CPU, RAM and GPU?

Re: PR Launcher doesn't open on Win 8.1
The project reality folder in my dox will get recreated when you launch PR for the first time.
Operating System - win10 or 8.1 or 7
GPU Graphics Processing unit or Graphics Card
Will the launcher launch? - the first window with PLAY manual options etc.
Have you set run as admin, have you done DX .Net? and .NET in that order try after each one.

Re: PR Launcher doesn't open on Win 8.1
They are windows programs needed to run games amongst other things fairly often if they aren't installed PR won't start
Direct X first
