I'm trying this program for the first time, using the latest version and a fresh download. In every way possible I could start up the program, I only get a black screen.
I tried using an xbox controller but that did nothing.
Waiting 5-10 minutes also did not yield different results.
I'm on an i5 6600k @4,6 GHz, 16 GB DDR3, and AMD 5700XT. My cpu is far from being maxed out by this program, and I see no issues with temperatures either.
Is there anything I'm missing, or are there things I can do to try and make it work?
 
There may be several problems.
1. First, the configuration may be incorrect.
in VaM directory, delete [prefs.json], [Cache] Folder and start again.
I have also experienced cases where something that worked well in another environment did not work when migrated.

2. If there are special characters in the folder name, it may not run. change it to a simple name and run it. ex) C:\VaM
3. Or maybe the GPU driver version is too obsolite for it to work.
4. If not, your system memory may be too low and it may not work. How about free memory?
5. Lastly, your binary may be incorrect. In this case, download again from below site.

If the problem is solved, please let me know. :giggle:
