So.. my game just wont seem to load with any of the main plugins installed. The sample project and demo projects dont even seem to load for me to even begin to work.  Whenever I start a game for a playtest, I just get a black screen and the game never loads. It dosent crash either, so I dont have any kind of crashlog to assist in this. Could this be a me issue? 


Hey Zombiethederg, thanks for reporting this in. Afraid this might be a you issue, but let's try to solve it!  Couple things might be happening:

- What version of RPG Maker MV / MZ are you using? Have you updated RPG Maker MV / MZ to the most recent version?

- What version of NW.js do have on your computer? Have you tried updating to a more recent version?

- Try turning off the plugins one by one (start from the bottom and go up) and try running your game. At what point does standard behavior resume?

Let us know any details you may have on these questions and we can continue troubleshooting. We want to make sure you have a running Demo Project on your end :)

Thanks,

MythAtelier Team

Sorry it took me almost 20 days to respond.. live got very busy.

- As far as I know, im on the most recent version of RPGMaker MZ. Im not prompted for any updates on steam,  however nor do I know where to look.

- ... im gonna sound stupid, but what is NW.js? Is that something I can download? If so, where can I do so? 

- I tried, as you said, turning each one off and trying to see which ones could make the game work. Some stuff happened.
-Turning off "Core Engine" couldnt even get the game to the title screen. I didnt get an error or anything, just a black screen when I loaded the game.
- Anytime I turned off one of the other plugins, nothing seemed to change. Just a black screen with no error message that im unable to close without using task manager. If I close the game this way, I also cannot reopen it. Im using the "Blank Template" as a testing grounds for this. 

hey there, sorry for butting in, but by NW.js, I think they mean this:

Hope that helps!

Are there any resources for updating it for MZ? This guide seems to only cover MV and when I tried to follow the steps for the windows version, it ended up just not working

Sorry, can't help you there. Maybe just try un- and reinstalling RPG Maker MZ?
