Star wars squadrons black screen on start, previous fix doesn't work.

★★★ Novice

When I tried launching the game, the screen turned black and game didn't load. I found another question with the same problem, but the fix that was listed there didn't help. Anyone knows why this is happening and how can I fix it?

Omg this worked. Load it up to the black screen. ALT+ENTER. then hopefully for you it should show the game in a small window. After that I went to the screen setting then changed back to windowed borderless.

 

Hope this helps you as it did me.

 

I don't have time to play tonight but I hope it holds up

OK, the solutions did work. After the Intro I just had to wit 10 min instead of 3 min. If you change all the thinks in the .exe just wait.

i dont see the exe file. is that just the game file itself? if so, when i right click on it there is no combability tab. i would love to figure this out as all of my friends had no trouble starting and it sucks.

Apology. After the posted fix you just have to wait 5 minutes at the black screen. I only waited 2 minutes before hitting alt+f4. So thats my bad. Still not a good look for AAA game, but it works.

On Origin, start Squadrons, it plays upto the setting screen, then the EA, Lucas logos but after pressing any button to start all I get is a black screen and nothing else.

I have an up to date driver, I  have tried starting in windows and borderless mode and run at 1080, still no joy. Beginning to think I have wasted my money. Assistance is required.
