ROM CLient crashes at launch

For some reason, the client crashes at launch. I was playing fine yesterday and today it wont launch. I have uninstalled twice and still nothing. I have tried doing the manual patches, but it still wont launch. The launcher opens and I click play, a black screen shows and then the crash report comes up. Any Ideas?

This might sound like a silly suggestion, but have you restarted your computer? That sometimes does the trick.

But if it doesn't, and you've been using the Gameforge Launcher (GFL) to install and start your game...well, it would be far better to get rid of it. That will require opening Control Panel, running the Programs and Features applet, and removing both RoM and the GFL.

Once you've done that, go here:

Manual Downloads for the 6.0.1 RoM Client

Read what Inferiority says and follow his directions. The ten (10) installation files are clean and virus-free. Get them downloaded and installed, then run the client to get it patched up.

Hope this helps.

OK I've reinstalled windows 7 and still get the same error when using the 6.0 client and bin files. And with gameforge installer. This is really frustrating now. Is there anything in the crash log that can help me find out where the client is crashing?

I have submitted a support ticket....Hopefully they have an answer. Included a copy of the crash report.

I am not too sure what could be causing this but have you tried either of these 2 things...

1. Right-Click the client icon and select "Run as Administrator"

2. Right-Click the client icon and select "Properties", then click the tab "Compatibility" and select "Run in compatibility mode for "Windows XP"... (use the highest number service pack in the list , 1/2/3)

Also i apologize for any errors in my post, currently posting on my phone while at work.

Ok I went back to Windows 8 Pro. Used the exe and bins and the manual downloads, still crashes. This is impossible. It is one of the first programs installed and doesn't even work. Im in disbelief over this. I am out of Ideas and am about to throw my computer out the window. I have used the Gameforge client and still crashes at black screen. Can support read the crash files and tell whats wrong?
