    Hey @adcaelums  Do you use any overlay programs while trying to start SWBF2? 
     
    Also, have you tried moving the SWBF2 documents folder to the desktop and then try to start SWBF2 and see if that helps?

Really glad the game works now after that hot fix. I noticed in other peoples topics related to the black screen/freezing where they were still having the same issues after the fix. If that's the case for anyone, everybody who tried all the various possible workarounds to get the game to work should delete everything Battlefront 2 related from their computer. This includes everything in the documents folder (C:/users/documents). I personally waited not wanting to mess anything up, didn't even try the DX12 workaround, let the patch install and mine runs great with no problems every time. I hope this helps someone.

Here's my crappy laptop info 😳 :

*Windows 10 Home 64 Bit

*Intel i7-7500U CPU

*Nvidia GeForce 940MX 2 GB

*12 GB Ram
