I searched the forum for useful links, and the channel login-info didn't work with Chatzilla?

Do an official IRC channel for C2 exist?

Ashley - The free standalone version works perfectly on all my PCs, so it should have something to do with the communication between Steam and Construct.

This is what happens: You launch Construct from Steam, and then a Steam-window flashes for 1 sec or something at the bottom of the screen (as if it's about to launch), but then nothing happens. If you click on Launch again/multiple times, it will tell you that the app is already launched.

I hope this helps :)

Today I just got Windows 8 installed on my Mac, which I bought only to use C2. Does it work? Nope! The exact same error message occurs, and I really doubt it has anything to do with my graphics driver which is fully updated.

This is a major bummer, as I can't switch to Windows 7 now. The only OS C2 has worked with is W7 in my experience, which I occasionally borrow from a friend when it's available. The reason I bought W8 was to test out my games as W8 apps.

I advice you guys to consider fixing this bug as it impacts a LOT of users. I posted this problem on the Steam page as well, and others have answered that they have the same problem and don't know of any solutions.

In short, I can't use the C2 I've PAYED FOR before you fix this...

I have tried to run Construct 2 through Steam with multiple XPs and it doesn't work. Steam just says "Failed to start game (app already running).

I tested it on a Virtual Machine today with XP on my Mac. The same thing happened, so I think it's actually a Construct 2 bug. I then borrowed a W7 laptop from a friend of mine and testet it, and there it worked just fine!

Just wanted to let you know ;)

I see! Windows 7 it is then! ;)

I see, but what'd you recommend using, W8 or W7? I'm a Mac guy so I don't keep updated in the Windows world, but I've heard some bad rumors about W8.

I really appreciate your help so far!

I get this message when I use Intel Detect:

A customized computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update Utility is not able to update the driver. Installing a generic Intel driver instead of the customized computer manufacturer driver may cause technical issues. Contact your computer manufacturer for the latest driver for your computer.

I think it's time to run a virtual machine on my Mac. That should help with the graphics card related bugs, I assume?

Thanks.

I'm not sure whether this is a Steam bug or a C2 bug, but I can't launch Construct 2 Personal on Steam with Windows XP Service Pack 3.

I'm using a Windows XP fully updated and I've tried all of these steps:

-Reinstalling Steam

-Reinstalling Construct 2

-Validated/verified the appcache

-Restarted my computer

-Fixed my registry

-Disabled firewalls etc.

All of these things with a lot of different combinations, but without success.

I can see that Steam is about to open a new window, but it just flashes for a second and hides again. When I click on "Launch" multiple times, after a while, it says that Construct 2 is already active when it's not?

Sometimes I also get an error message telling me that it failed to "start game with shared content, please update construct 2 free".

Not sure if I posted this the correct place though, but any ideas? This is so annoying because there's nothing more I'd like to do right now than to play with C2!<img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Thanks,

It works great on my XP for now, but I haven't tried making any hardcore, graphics intensive games yet, so I can see the issue it may cause on a 32-bit XP.

Regarding Chrome, it works now! I don't know how it was fixed though.

Hey everyone! My name is Chris, and I mostly work with graphic design and websites currently, but I'm considering making games for full time. I'm really happy I found CC2, so I can start creating my ideas for real.

Thanks for the links! I don't know the excact type because it was my brother's PC, and I don't have it anymore, but it was from Intel.

I have only been using the latest release of CC2.

I'm currently working with an old HP PC with Windows XP installed, and it works much better on this one. The only problem now is that the preview (alt+4) doesn't work in Chrome (it just loads forever), but it works in Firefox though.
