Endeavor Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Hello! I'm very new to both the game and the forums, so apologies if I did something wrong regarding creating a new topic or anything! I have a problem with launching the game via Steam. I'm using Windows 10. I get a notification saying ''Steam initialization failed. Application will be terminated.'' and will stop the game. I've tried running the app as an administrator, reinstalling, removing appcache. I'm lost and don't know what to do- I'd really love to be able to play the game myself and not resort to playthroughs. Can anyone help? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 There should be an Academagia.log file somewhere with more detailed info on why the game crashes. Not sure where it's located on Windows 10, though. On 7 it should be in C:\ProgramData\Academagia, same as the game's cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 That's an odd one- I'd also try shutting Steam down and bringing it back up as well. If you are running with Admin, though...that shouldn't be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No luck finding the file, I do know where Academia.exe and whatnot is located, though. 20 hours ago, Legate of Mineta said: That's an odd one- I'd also try shutting Steam down and bringing it back up as well.

Metis Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Just to check, did you set hidden folders to be visible? More'n likely it's in a hidden folder somewhere, and searches don't find stuff in hidden folders if they're not set to visible ('least on Windows 7, no clue 'bout 10, but...).

Legate of Mineta Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 The log is indeed in a hidden folder- you'll need to make it visible in order to go there. It's in ProgramData/Academagia, but it's hidden by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
