Submitted support ticket. Messaged Ash, because reasons.

Specs:

i53570K@3.4 GHz
GTX 660ti for main monitor
GTX 650ti for secondary monitor
SSD for OS: 90 GB Corsair Vengeance
SSD for games: 128 GB OCZ vertex 4
RAM: 8GB corsair Vertex + 8GB G Skill ARES
Mobo: Some sort of Gigabyte

Done all this: http://steamcommunit...49191386284415/

Also rolled back the drivers twice, restarted 100x, drank 5 beers, and I'm pretty sure other stuff. Help_

Edit: works now! Don't know why!

Error messages from the .log files would help.

Did you get an error message when tried to start it_

Does Hawken show up in your task manager after you started it via Steam_

Are your graphics card drivers up-to-date_

Do you use SLI or the GeForce Experience app_ Try turning 'em off.


Did you already check if there is a Hawken-related error record in the Windows event viewer_ If so please post the excact wording of the error title and error description in this thread.

Did that twice. Once before anything, once after everything. No avail.

When you reinstalled Hawken did you also manually remove the Hawken folder in your Steamapps folder and the Hawken folder in your "My Games" folder after you uninstalled_ Did you also check if the registry keys were removed_

BTW: Did you try starting the game without using Steam by executing the .exe in the Hawken folder_ This might help with identifying wether this is a problem with the game or with Steam.

I did, both by clicking play and running as admin. Same result (nothing.)

Oh, btw, if you restore windows to like few days before that fuzzy bunny starts happening, it might get back working.
