Goliath35 Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Everytime I go to launch APB from the launcher, the screen goes blank and then it goes back to the desktop itself. There's no error, or any error related files for me to check out. Everything is running as administrator. I did click and repair the games installation, but to no avail.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have an antivirus running on your machine? If so, try disabling it and running APB again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can run Reborn or IA just fine, it's APB that wants to be awkward lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reborn and IA don't use scripts 5.0, which is hated by a few select antivirus programs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search "Avast" in our Discord tech support channel and you will see. If disabling isn't doing what you want, can you try adding game.exe in APB's install directory to Avast's whitelist? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the game seems to launch now. I've just placed the entire w3d folder to the exceptions list. Now I can enjoy the 105mm L7A1/M68A1 gun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
