We haven't had any reports of AHITR crashing upon launch so we're not exactly sure what the issue could be.

You could try holding shift right after launching the game and if the game menu pops up, you could try a different renderer.

Other than that, I'm not too sure. I can keep digging but I'm sorry you're encountering this error.

Good news is, holding shift successfully brings up the renderer select screen. Bad news is, no matter what renderer I choose, I get the same result.  Would either of the log files help at all? 

What's extra weird is that I have a folder with a copy of 0.6.13r3 in it, and that runs just fine, but as soon as I overwrite it with the latest version, i get crashes. Even weirder is that I previously had 0.6.16r1 in use (i have a save), but I can't get that to work anymore either. 

real strange. 

Edit: I've been slowly overwriting 6.13r3 with newer versions and have managed to get 0.6.15r3 to work again...but still going up to 0.6.16r1 and beyond is causing issues (i take it back, it ran once or twice, and now it's back to not working...weird. So 0.6.14r1 works consistently, but once i get to 0.6.15r3 and beyond, it either just doesn't work, or works inconsistently. :/ )

Update: Managed to get it to work. I *think* what did it was disabling Gamepad in that shift-settings menu bit. Don't know *why* that does it...but it works now at least. 

Oh that's great to hear! I'm not sure why it's working but I'm glad it is! Sorry again for the hassle. I'd still suggest a possible fresh install if any issues popup. Happy Rifting o/

Definitely glad it's working now too. What was also weird (and not mentioned previously) was that I was also testing fresh installs in separate folders, and *those* weren't working either. Not until i went into those folders and made the disable gamepad change as well. Really weird. *shrug*

Sorry that the renderer solution didn't solve the issue.

With the odd issues going on with all these versions, I'd suggest downloading the latest version, in a completely new/separate folder. The latest free version here is 0.7.1.

Hopefully that resolves the issue for you, sorry that it's been an ongoing thing.
