Upon startup the app goes to a black screen. The mouse works and sound plays but I cannot exit or escape unless by force.
I tried to access the folder in Application Support but it does not seem to exist. Is it a hidden folder?
I downloaded this game yesterday...
What should do??

Please post your system specs, operating system version, processor, and graphics card.

Have you tried disabling fullscreen or altering graphical settings?
Preferences are found here on a Mac: .../[Username]/Library/Application Support/CDE/Preferences.txt
If the folder does not exist, go ahead and make it and then place this preferences file in it (this is the default preferences but with fullscreen disabled):

I'd suggest anything involving the graphics settings be set to low, Bloom be set to 0, and turning off VSYNC.

Hi,
I couldn't seem to find the folder "CDE" in the application support folder, does anybody else have this problem or a solution?

Amendment to this:
browsing the games local files yielded a certain .txt called "DefaultPreferences.txt". edited the file with the replacement text above, this has worked.

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\CDEThat's where it should be on Winblows (replace Username accordingly, don't put spaces or spooky characters in that).
Did you edited any of these folders permissions-wise earlier to some non-standard values via chmod/chown or other means?
Can you try creating new user profile and launching from there? Would touch whatsneeded.txt work?
Can you try to "launch as administrator" / su - / sudo ?
Edited to add: I do have unmodified CoaDE\Resources\Data\DefaultPreferences.txt but I see no path-related stuff in it, only what was pasted above ^
Disclaimer: "my" version 1.2.1 has SmartSteamEmu.ini without any paths in it (you see where I'm at, sad as it is) and no Steam trojan installed.
