grindmonkey Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I just got the first Xenonauts today and while I like the old X-Com games I was itching to play this. problem is the launcher in steam, once you config and hit to play game, it appears if the game is launching and then it just quits back to being not running. back to Steam. no error messages, nothing.

Max_Caine Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Have you tried launching Xenonauts directly, rather than through steam? It would be Steam/steamapps/common/xenonauts/xenonauts.exe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grindmonkey Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) yes I have, compatiblity modes, launched as admin, etc. what else is there? I heard there was this Launcher.bat but all the dropboxes 404'd Edited June 30, 2019 by grindmonkey needed to add something I noticed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grindmonkey Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 well I found out what the issue was - Run as admin - Windows XP (Service Pack 3) - disable full screen optimizations (this was what needed to be done) and now it works fine. oh well at least I can play now. and yes I started it within the folder instead of the steam overlay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
