Game crashes after hitting play button.

Had it on Steam, deleted and installed standalone launcher now I'm back on Steam. No matter what version I have it will not generate a crash report. Game starts I can see the start up loading screen of Malus etc. but only for a second. It's done it before and a reset of the laptop would fix it, but not anymore. I've tried pretty much everything I can find. Including the clientsettings.ini fullscreen shenanigans.

  • Cheese and Crackers, my HDD was essentially full. I deleted a Gig off and SWTOR runs now. Sorry for the trouble, but I appreciate you. Idk how it even crossed my mind but I'm giving you the W.

    Glad to hear its working now 

    full hdd will do it, as the game creates static cache files on launch , if they cant be created the game will fail to load

    Idk man, nothing works. Tried the driver, tried compatibility mode. This is why I stopped gaming on computers, they just decide not to work. The enslaved demons must be mad I keep telling people that's how computers work. Oh well I guess.

    Cant see anything out of place , i would definitely try the AMD beta video driver linked earlier 

    other then that try verifying the game files just in case per this guide on steam

    can also try cutting that client_setting file out to the desktop and see if any change when it attempts to load with defaults
