Immediately crashes when launched.

[Fennecai]

Describe the bug When trying to launch the program, it does not open- it shows up for a split second in task manager and then closes.

Steps to reproduce

1. open compile pal and boom it crashes.

Expected behavior ....that it works.

Can you try the latest prerelease?

this was on the prerelease actually. same happens on the non-pre-release.

[Exactol]

Can you upload your GameConfig.txt? should be located in the bin folder of the game you are compiling for

[Fennecai]

not sure why it matters because i cant even get to the screen where i even choose the game; but ok, ehres portal 2 for example just in case im wrong. github messed the formatting up.

"Configs" { "Games" { "Portal 2" { "GameDir" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\portal2" "Hammer" { "GameData0" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\bin\portal2.fgd" "TextureFormat" "5" "MapFormat" "4" "DefaultTextureScale" "0.250000" "DefaultLightmapScale" "16" "GameExe" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\portal2.exe" "DefaultSolidEntity" "func_detail" "DefaultPointEntity" "info_player_start" "BSP" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\bin\vbsp.exe" "Vis" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\bin\vvis.exe" "Light" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\bin\vrad.exe" "GameExeDir" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2" "MapDir" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\sdk_content\maps" "BSPDir" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\portal2\maps" "PrefabDir" "H:\Antonios stuff\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\bin\Prefabs" "CordonTexture" "tools\toolsskybox" "MaterialExcludeCount" "0" } } } "SDKVersion" "4" }

EDIT: and now the program decided to randomly work for some reason. great. now i look dumb. still worth checking in to maybe

[Exactol]

I'm going to close the issue if its working now
