Game refusing to open

I click play, the windows preparing to open shows up, disappears, game doesn't open, and the stop button changes back to play. i've tried closing things in task manager like malwarebytes, tortoiseSVN, Xbox 360 controller drivers, and restarting my laptop but nothing has worked so far. so far as i can tell the game never opens at all, i don't ever see it appear in task manager when i click play. i think it's just insufficient VRAM (i only have 128mb) but i hope i'm wrong

Same, game's not working. When I try to open it from the folder it says

"The program can't start because XINPUT1_4.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I'll update if it helps doing so.

EDIT: Nope. Well f***. I hope FBF addresses this very soon because that's going to be a problem.

That's lower than the recommended minimum VRAM so it's possible that's the issue, but difficult to confirm. What's the rest of your setup like? OS, etc.

Unclear if these 2 are the same issue, but this sounds controller related.
Found a similar report here:

With apparently a confirmed fix, but the solution sounds quite bizarre. You can try it though and let us know if that worked. That'd give some idea where the problem lies at least.

Good to know! Looking into it, seems to be a Windows 7 issue, will fix ASAP.
