Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Will not start

Can't edit my previous message, so a quick post to confirm that since the last update, the game can be launched on Pro versions of Windows, yay!
Don't hesitate to post if that's not the case for you.

Agh, Patch 3 hasn't fixed it on my computer. I haven't been able to play it since I got it. I've spent over 12 hours trying every different tip or trick listed here and nothing works. I'm tempted to just get a refund at this point because I just don't know what else to do.

I'm going to say this went to the website to 'FIX' this issue.

I'm fucking computer illiterate I play games on them, that is it. This hit shift 2233243t25352353 is bullshit, or winrx I'm not looking for a prescription. I'm looking to play a game. It's like this I press Baldurs Gate 3 shortcut game loads up. I go to steam library choose the game I want to play, game loads up. If note I want something shiny on your website saying 'we're working on it. work around can be found here.

copy paste works fucking wonders.

IF IT DOESN'T theres a problem, a big problem. How to is on ya'll. But heres the problem, a vastly larger problem then my game currently not starting. This last I checked is a forum to let Larian Studios know hey theres a problem. The solution should be copy fucking pasted, clipboard, tacked the fuck on this forum. Not some goddamn random ass website, but here. So yeah Larian you want to respond on another website great. FUCK OFF! your now on the same page as EA as in last of my money your getting since you can't respond on your own goddamn forum.

Sadly I'm not even mad, got other games to play. Just wanted to share how I feel.

Posts like this are easily avoidable. Have major issue, person says Hey I'm having xyz problem, on xyz game. Someone from your company goes 'Oh shit!' *person then goes on your website with "Hey, this is occuring, we are hard at work on fixing it! for now here's some workarounds! Also problem can be seen at http:Iwantyourmoney.weapprecaiteorcustomers" Wow so goddamn fucking hard. Can even pot sticky damn note up 'We're looking to fix this problem. workarounds are here xykhohhoh.'

I had this problem too. I'm using Steam, so I tried to launch it through the Steam client but when the Larian launcher would load and I'd click on 'Play', it would just result in a prompt telling me the game crashed and I should verify the integrity of the files. No matter how many times I tried that, it would not fix it. I fully uninstalled and then reinstalled the game too but it didn't help. I also tried getting the latest version of the Microsoft Visual C++ package (which I already had installed) but it didn't fix the issue. Both the bg3.exe and bg3_dx11.exe already had checkmarks to run as administrator, so I launched the game through those executables and I was able to play the game. However, using the Larian launcher, I'd still get crash prompts so I decided to go to the 'Launcher' folder in the game install directory and I checkmarked 'Run as administrator' on the LariLauncher.exe and it worked. The game so far runs perfectly fine, and I can launch the game from the Steam client, just as I do for any other game now.
