Cannot launch Mass Effect Legendary Edition
I got MELE from the most recent Humble Choice selection, and have been trying to get it to launch for roughly two hours, and have not had any progress in doing so. It will launch, do the BioWare intro, and then crash roughly three seconds later. This has always happened, and no fix has changed this, including:
-Verifying the game files
-Updating my drivers
-Disabling overlays
-Closing all other applications
-Launching it in windowed/fullscreen
-Resetting NVIDIA's 3D settings
-Disabling Hardware Acceleration (was never on)
-Reinstalling the game
Nothing seems to work. I'm on Windows 10, my system is perfectly capable, and yet nothing I do seems to do anything. Please help?
I've attached my DxDiag in case that's useful.
It seems the launcher is crashing before you even get to the specific game.
So the easiest way to circumvent this problem might be the custom launcher made by dvidebyzero.- Go here.
- Download the updated custom launcher (Preferable form the Nexus mode page, it is free.)
- Go to your ">drive<:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\Launcher\" folder and rename the "MassEffectLauncher.exe" to "Old_MassEffectLauncher.exe" (Without the quotes)
- Put the downloaded custom launcher in the ">drive<:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\Launcher\" folder.
- Try to start the game from the custom launcher.
