uuuuuumm...It took me about 2 hours to download the game, bc my dumbass installed the mac version instead- So, basically i was trying to open up the game, and i extracted the files and when it was done it said:

! Cannot execute "C:\Users\39320\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$EXa8996.11891\Solipsism Reigns (smaller version).exe"

so uh.. any ideas of how i can fix this..? cuz i'd really like to play this game, the MCs are cute... The guys are cute.. the artstyle is stunning, and it has a very interesting concept i'd like to experience.. so by any chance, would anyone be so kind to please lend me a hand?

Hey hey! Sorry for my slow reply, and also for the fact that I'm probably not gonna be of much help here >.<

I've not come across that issue before, so I'm not really sure what to suggest :( Is it an old system you're running it on or maybe one with very little spare memory? I know the devs of the engine have said before that if a computer doesn't have enough free memory then it might not be able to run the game until some space has been cleared.

If you've got plenty of free space, and it's not going to take you too long, you could try downloading the larger Windows version instead, just in case there's an issue specifically with the smaller version for some reason. I'll try redownloading each Windows version myself from here and see if I can manage to replicate the issue, but they worked fine for me when I uploaded them originally, so I'm probably not going to be able to help >.< I'll do some Googling though and report back anything I find that might be of use!

Oh, one other thing could possibly be antivirus software stopping it from running I guess! Because every single game I've made so far tends to get blocked by my antivirus the first time I open it up. It just does a scan, then allows it through. But I'm not sure how other antivirus software works. It's possible it may just block it from running completely.

Thanks so much for checking out the game :3 I really hope we can manage to find a solution to get it up and running for you!

tysm! I dont have that issue anymore thanks to you,but.. sorry to bother you again... Though now when i extract the game files the exported application doesn't open and just gives me a blank note file. is that normal or am i doing something wrong? Also i'm on a Windows Vista, and i installed the smaller version i got this pc about a year ago.. do i need a 64 bit perhaps...?? also don't worry i'm pretty slow at replying too, so we're on the same boat.. ^^'

It's no bother at all :3 I'm glad that one issue is solved, but it sucks that something else is still preventing you from playing >.<

That's definitely not supposed to happen. When you run the .exe, it should just load up the game (which can take a while depending on system specs.) I'm by no means a tech expert, but if it's opening in notepad or something instead, something must have gone wrong somewhere >.< I would imagine something in your system settings, but I wouldn't really know what to change to stop it from doing that :( As far as I can remember, when you export a game made in Tyrano for Windows, it should just work with most versions of Windows.

I did some Googling, and I can find fixes for systems where all .exe files are opening in notepad, but nothing specific for just one, or it being blank >.< All those fixes seem to mention fixing stuff in the registry, but I wouldn't wanna tell you to go messing with stuff when I don't even know for sure if that would fix it, and I certainly wouldn't want you to accidentally screw up your computer somehow :(

I did download the small version for Windows from here after reading your first comment, just to check the download wasn't randomly broken or something, but it still starts up fine for me.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help >.< Like I said, I'm not the most techy person when it comes to computer problems, so I'm not sure what the solution could be :(

i'm very sorry for the late reply! Lately i've been staying up quite late to get my pc to work right for the game.

i'll try to download the file again in hopes for a better result, thank you very much for your concern and information! I'll keep you updated! I hope you have a lovely day/night!

No worries at all! I'm still sorry that I can't be of more help :( I know how frustrating it can be trying to get stuff to work cos I once tried to get my old PSVR headset working with my PC, and loads of people had managed it just fine, but for whatever reason, I just couldn't get it to work for me so I had to give up in the end >.<

I hope you do manage to get it working :3 I wanted to be able to have a browser version available for anyone that had issues running the downloadable game at all, but sadly, it's too large to be able to host it as a browser game, even the smaller version :( Good luck! And thank you :3 I hope you have a lovely day/night yourself!

HEY HEYYYY!!! Lol it's been awhile since my last reply huh? ^^ I basically gave up like, a week ago. uh... turns out my pc had the issue with several games, and it's because it's 32 bit, i tried it on my 64 bit old pc and it worked. And omg do i love it so far--- i finished the whole student route and it actually reaklly scared me lol, and i really liked it. I'm not sure abou my full opinion on it cause i'm still processing and rating the characters in my head, but i really can't wait to play the other routes if they're just as good. Tysm for trying to help me and sorry for wasting your time i'm really happy i finally get to play this. Hope you have a good day maybe you'll hear from me again when i finished the game!! :D

Ahh, well, I'm glad you found a way to play it in the end :D I don't really remember, but I don't think Tyrano gave the option to export specifically for 32 bit or 64 bit Windows. I think it just straight up said Windows, with no further explanation >.< haha.

I'm glad you're enjoying it so far anyhow :3 Trust me, the Student Route is actually the worst-written route of them all x3 My heart wasn't really in it for that one, and it shows compared to the others! It's by far the shortest, with the least overall detail. I hope you continue to enjoy the game! Thank you for playing :3 Oh, and you don't need to apologise cos you weren't wasting my time at all! I'm just happy you finally found a way to play it ^_^ I'm sorry I wasn't any help on that front >.< Have a lovely week!

Okay, so, I have no idea if this will help at all, but I copied the error you posted into Google, and one of the things that came up was a YouTube link to this short video. It seems to be the same sort of error, but the fix seems to be related to antivirus stuff. I'll link it to you anyhow just in case it's helpful at all :3
