I just downloaded current version of Giants Editor. I have Windows 10 on my laptop. When i try to open Editor, i get the two windows to pop up, but they close within 10 seconds on their own. Any and all help would be appraciated.

First at all check the editor log for errors: {USER}\AppData\Local\GIANTS Editor ...\editor_log.txt

If the logfile doesn't exist, the editor wasn't started successfully. The reason is commonly insufficient system or resources.

Thanks for the quick reply Bilbo. No logfile was found. i assume my laptop isnt capable of handling. Can you recommend min requirements for a PC to handle Editor?

Minimum: ( * = essential)
CPU: 2-Core, 3.5 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
GPU: 4 GB VRAM, * OpenGL 4.5 capable
OS: Windows 7, * 64bit

It may run on lower systems, but is no fun anymore ;)

Hello, is it possible that the editor will not start if I have a 2.4Ghz CPU and not a 3.5Ghz CPU?

depends on direct X 11.* if you dont have the proper Direct X the 'Shaders' will not load causing crash . had a machine i had to update , to make work .... Simon --- it was on a 2.4ghs cpu (old gateway)


hope this helps

No - the editor doesn't use DirectX, but OpenGL.
At least OpenGL 4.5 is required for the GE 8.x.
