 ...and I can't play the game 

I mean, it patches fine but after I click "Game Start" I get a white screen and it automatically closes.

I was able to run DragonSaga of G-Potato but I can't connect to the server then

I've just recently realized that the G-Potato client has ceased services with SEA last March of this year.

I'm hoping the client here would be different,

I'm literally having a nostalgic breakdown.

Have you tried to rein-stalling and running as an administer? Ensuring that no corrupt files go through.

[arkeosphoros]

 Yes, about three times since last night

I'm going to do the fourth now...

[ShazamO]

Have you deleted the Dragon Saga folder completely before rein-stalling?

[TheCristall]

did you adjust the screen resolution while the patcher is opened ? the game tries to start in widescreen and if you havent got one your game will crash

Hi arkeosphoros,

 

I have 4 things you could try out:

 

1. Go to your "My Documents" folder and delete the "Dragonsaga" folder you find there.  Then try to restart the game.

2. Go to the folder you've installed the game. There you will find a folder with the name "Release". Go into it and delete the file "config.xml". Restart the game.

3. This is an almost impossible solution, but you could give it a try. I had this strange behavior with Dragonica on gPotato years ago. Don't install the game

to the default folder. Change the installation folder to a different one instead, for example "SagonDraga". Then try again.

I have installed my Dragonica to a folder named "Dargonica_N" (whyever) back then, and then it worked great. But this had most likely to do with the anti-cheat

system gPotato used (GameGuard) and it's isn't used here, but you can try it out although if you want, maybe you're lucky.

4. We heard of users having problems starting the game in fullscreen mode, so give the windowed mode a try.

 

It's strange that you can start the gPotato client but not this client. When all this doesn't work, we have to think about it again.

 

Please let us know if it works.

 

Good luck and greetings from Germany,

Yuri

I think I'll the third thing is what I'll do, the first thing that actually came to mind was maybe it was with the widescreen setting so I've set it to "Windowed" now all I got was a client startup, then it automatically closes ~same thing... going to do the third step mentioned by yuri

[yurioj75]

Let me know, if it works. If not, we can try to investigate your problem... We don't give up so fast.

I hate double posting, but did the installation to another folder work?

 

[arkeosphoros]

 MUCH YES!   YOU THANKS!    DANKE!   YES YOU!    THANKS MUCH!

after the fifth try!

 

I guess it's fifth time's the charm?

 

[yurioj75]

I'm happy for you   

 

[arkeosphoros]

 I'll be deleting this post soon just in case there's already a topic with the solutions you've handed.

I wouldn't want to overstock the forums with topics on a dilemma with similar solutions.

[ShazamO]

Great to hear that the game is working now~

 

I'll close the topic and leave it up for other who happen to have this issue in the future.
