Hey guys,

This is usually one of a few things. The main one is that you aren't opening with the DBOGLauncher, and are instead opening with DBOG. You should always open with DBOGLauncher. Otherwise, here's a list of common installation issues!

• DBOG folder not excluded from antivirus/firewall
• DBOG folder is stored on a cheap external/USB drive
• DBOG folder is in a folder that syncs to Onedrive/some other automated sync process
• DBOG folder is in the C:\ drive in program files
• Cracked versions of Windows
• Missing .net framework 3.5, or DX9, or Visual C++ Redistributable 2010/2013
• Very little free space on the hard drive holding the DBOG folder
• Spaces or the letters "rpe" in the DBOG folder name (every file in the DBOG folder path should have no spaces in it)

now i get this

This is usually a missing file, are you running the launcher to see if you need a patch before you start the game?

10-20% free is usually ok, yeah!

It's still giving you issues? You may want to try a full reinstall, and make sure to check the list I sent up there for common installation issues.
