noet Posted December 31, 2023 Report Share Posted December 31, 2023 Ever since the .net7 update I have been struggling to play the game. After launching it the game briefly shows "Loading shaders" and suddenly goes completely black, only the music is playing and the game cursor seems to be present. I have tried reinstalling both the game and .net7 as suggested by the site but still couldn't solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn Posted December 31, 2023 Report Share Posted December 31, 2023 You need to provide a bit more information. System specs would be a good start. I've never seen it stop there, and have it installed on Win 7, 8.1, 10 and 11. Are you certain you used the right .Net7 for your OS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

estancio Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 Did some searching, afraid i am not going to be much help, but two notes, and a bump (which is probably the most helpful thing i'm doing here). whens the last time you ran a virus scanner, might want to give it a whirl, a full scan, if you haven't already. seems like a stretch, but whenever its a weird/uncommon problem its a good start. you, like me, seem to have a unique issue. read a thread where people were mentioning the 3070 got flaky when memory got tight. some even mentioned black screens, although this was in the game, not just starting the application, still, if you haven't already, start shutting everything you can down. I know it worked before, but this is microsoft(.net) and it tends to be unneccessarily bulky and intrusive, who knows what its doing, and moreover it might be conflicting with or commandeering something. so you will be saving ram and removing potential conflicts. you might want to go so far, if you can that is, as to shut down any apps that came with the RTX, if you don't need them. most people don't use that software anyway in my experience but install it all the same.. just once to see anyway. i'm assuming the drivers are up to date.
