LGG Forums

I just recently installed Revolution Ace. I have tried restarting my computer, Re installing the game, and installing/repairing all the installs that came with the game.
It loads the first start up screen, but once it goes to full screen it has a windows message saying "RA has stopped working." Windows is checking a solution for the problem... Then it says "A problem has cause the program to stop working properly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Then the only option is to close the window.
Please help.
Windows 7 Pro x64, Intel Core i7-2600K @3.40GHz, 16GB Ram

I have this exact same problem, please help

If you go to: Documents\My Games\Revolution Ace\ShmupGame\Logs\

If there is a file called Launch.log, please paste the bottom half of it so I can see.

Here is the file for Launch log. Just noticed that there are a couple files not found. How can I fix this.

Try going into

Find the setting:

Set it to false.

i can see it maybe have something to do with the shader...with this pc i'm currently playing games like sc2, pillar of eternity, diablo 3...i really dont think my video card is not supported by a game like REVOLUTION ACE...and
if that is the problem you maybe should insert it to minimum requirements of the game... i am copy pasting from steam:

Requisiti di sistema
MINIMUM:
OS: Windows XP SP2 or greater
Processor: 2.0+ GHZ Dual Core Processor
Memory: 1 GB RAM
Graphics: 256 MB Video Card
Hard Drive: 2 GB available space
Sound Card: Windows Supported Sound Card

sorry for my bad english, thank you for your attention, and i really hope we can solve this problem...its the third time i buy a game on steam and it wont work....so i'm little bit angry...

What video card do you have?

ati x1650

I'm sorry, but that card doesn't support Shader Model 3 which is required by the game (and many other games nowadays).
