I just installed the Beta version of Planetary Annihilation, but whenever I try to start the game, it shuts down immediately. Here are the details provided by my computer: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: pa.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 52603a1c Fault Module Name: pa.exe Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 52603a1c Exception Code: 80000003 Exception Offset: 001eb9ba OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Also, just before downloading it said "Elevation required," which I think might have something to do with this problem. I have the most recent build and I'm running it on it on Windows (32-bit). Please let me know how I can get this working. Thanks in advance for your help.
Most likely limitations of 32-bit OS it's your problem. Game only able to use 2GB of RAM on 32-bit OS and game usually require much more RAM. You can find more information in this thread: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/beta-error.51695/ There also very tricky workaround available: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/crashing-on-32-bit-windows-heres-a-guide-to-help.51990/ But for most people easier way it's upgrade to 64-bit.
Tried the 32-bit workaround to allow more memory usage, and it still stops working the instant I try to play.
Most likely crash on start caused by outdated drivers: Code: Card name: NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M Driver Date/Size: 5/12/2010 22:05:18, 7728744 bytes Download and install latest drivers from here: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/68097/en-us
Also if game will crash even after driver update please do that: Download glewinfo.exe from here Run it. It's should generate glewinfo.txt file, upload it on forums. This util make list of supported OpenGL features, so I'll check if your video card actually compatible with game or not.
