BluLightning Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 this is my second time installing this game on my computer. after i click on the scarlet blade vendetta (sbluncher) icon and log in successfully i click "start the game" button and and the whole thing shuts down. furthermore i looked online and forum for some solutions and this is what i've done: -turned off antivirus -turned off firewall -downloaded files from DrDieLess's post called "If you game, install this first!" non of these options worked, the game still shuts it self down after clicking "start the game" button. any ideas why this is happening ?

DrDieLess Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 It's not about disabling you antivirus, you need to add sb.exe to your antivirus exceptions list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 i'm using totalav antivirus. i added the exe file and launcher file, to the "exclusion list" i don't really know if that is what you meant but it didn't work either. like i click on the exe file and luncher file but it doesn't do anything, only a blue circle spins next to the cursor spins a few times and then nothing.

DrDieLess Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Have you tried uninstalling your AV, trying SB, and then reinstalling your AV and see if that works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 I will try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 I wonder when downloading the game it says (size: 4.7mb (patch download: 8gb+) however when I install the game its size is 4.15 GB. Am I not downloading the whole game or is there a secret patch i need to download ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Also while installing the game it says " There may have been some data loss during download. Do you want to verify the data to ensure successful installation. I know it might not be important but I'm trying to give as much details as I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDieLess Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 The game is over 10Gb fully patched. Seems like you're missing half the game. Try my alternate download post. It's the fully patched game, just unzip and play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Still didn't work. I guess I won't be playing this game after all. Thanks for help tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDieLess Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 There's something on your computer that's blocking SB. turn off all other programs before trying SB. When you start SB and it doesn't look like anything is happening, open your Task Manager and see if you see SB.exe listed there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluLightning Posted May 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 I honestly dont know what could be blocking the game. Also I've already noticed that as soon as I press Start game button the exe file shows up in task manager for 1 or 2 sec and then disappears with the launcher. There is no black screen either which suggests that the game is running, no error messages,nothing it just shuts down instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDieLess Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 so that means that it's being shut down by something. If you're using Windows 10 and you tried to uninstall your TotalAV program, that would mean that Windows Defender has taken over and tbh, it's even worse at blocking SB. Make sure you go add SB into Defender's exception list. And while you may think you can disable Windows Defender, you cannot. Give that a try?

BluLightning Posted May 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Nope still nothing. I went into windows defender firewall and changed the setting for sb.exe and sb launcher. I clicked on the " change settings and "allow another app". I ticked the private and public boxes and still nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norleras Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) The only thing I've yet to see documented is whether your installer, launcher, and SB itself are set to run as administrator. Its not just SB that should be added to exceptions lists. Put EVERYTHING in the SB folder you could possibly add to the lists affiliated to SB should be added.
