Well, here's an idea: Try the Alone in the dark forum/technical support.
*glances at Xinghoa's avatar* I love irony.
But seriously, it's much better to ask help with a game on a forum where lots of people actually play it.

Heyy guys. Need some help with a problem im having. I just got the new Alone in the dark game yesterday, but im having some problems. The first time i played the game it worked fine, but once i exit the program it will not start again. Tried everything, but the only thing that seems to work is by re-installing the game, then after the setup when i click 'Launch program' it works fine. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks. |

This does belong in the "Computer Help" section. Anyways, does it come up with an error? |

There should be a faq for the game about this kind of stuff. Or go to the develpers and tell them about the error. |

Try running it as an admin, if you're on vista. |

So, it just won't start after the first time? Sounds like you have a bad copy. |

Wait, this game's out? Awesome. Take it back where you bought it if it continues to not work. |

But... you couldn't have the game. It doesn't come out until the 24th, unless you live in Europe because then it came out the 20th. |

Yeah Europe (talking to a banned person, so fun) havent tried running as an admin yet, totally forgot about that. Ill try it when i have time. If it still wont work then yeah, must be a bad copy. Still have 5 days left on the weeks definate return policy, so Ill be fine. |

Oh my god... For like the ninety-trillionth time. I am not banned, I just asked Wizzy James if I could have something under my name (I was bored) and he gave me the Banned sign, even though I am not banned. |

Fixed the problem, didnt get a single reply on the actual AiTD forums (Shows how helpful Atari is) I played around in folder for AiTD in the program files folder, and I copied the AiTD run shortcut to my desktop and it worked. Turns out that the autorun is screwed. Ah well, at least it works now. @J, Yes the physics are quite good IMO, the fire is nice, and the lighting is good. I also like smashing wooden doors down, and how they splinter where you hit them. |
