Hello!

So I've recently installed LOVE and am following /u/Sheepolution's guide on getting started. However, I can't get very far because I've run into the error "love.exe has stopped working".

Error looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/Fuh9lgB.png

I've tried updating my graphics drivers (one of them had to update, but LOVE still doesn't run). I've also tried updating LOVE's permissions based on some forum posts from like 5 years ago, but that didn't change anything either.

If anyone has any idea what may be wrong, please help a fellow dev, would ya?

• My OS is Windows 10 Home Edition (64-bit).

• I have LOVE 64-bit installed.

• My primary graphics card is Intel HD 520 and my secondary card is AMD Radeon R5 (this one is the one I updated).

• I'm trying to use LOVE with Atom. When running from Atom, I just get an error that says "Error running LOVE". The screencap above is what displays when I just try to run love.exe

EDIT: Something interesting I noticed is that it seems like I can't run games that were made with LOVE either. I tried running Mari0, but it gives me a "Mari0 has stopped working" error too.

EDIT 2: I've tried everything that I could find on the forums and nothing works still.

Looks like it might be something related to your drivers.
Try running it from the command line using:

Code: Select all

love.exe --console

This might give you some additional info as to what could be wrong.

My goodness, sorry I hadn't seen this reply sooner. However, you nailed it exactly on the head. What I had to do was downdate my graphics drivers to make it work. Weird, and kinda dumb, IMO, but it works now.
