Hi,
That's one of the things I hate about CSharp, and the .NET platform in
general. You really have to make an effort to obfuscate.
Don't worry, your copy isn't the only demon in the dark. I'm getting:
System.PlatformNotSupportedException: MonoGame requires either
ARB_framebuffer_object or EXT_framebuffer_object.Try updating your graphics
drivers.

at Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.GraphicsDevice..ctor(GraphicsAdapter
adapter, GraphicsProfile graphicsProfile, PresentationParameters

C:\Data\Recent\Games\RPG\RPGStartup.cs:line 114
at Ian.RPGStartup.PerformStandardStartup() in
C:\Data\Recent\Games\RPG\RPGStartup.cs:line 21
It may be worth noting that Windows Update has a tendancy to update my
graphics drivers, which I never generally need, whether I want it to or not.
Disable it, hide it, try as I might. So it's quite obviously not that. Lol.
Plus...Graphics access in an audio only game? That suggests that there is an
underlying game engine involved, and I reckon it's the game engine itself
that is throwing a tantrum before the game itself even initialises. I don't
even get a menu. Just a piece of music, that error, then it completely boots
me off.
Having said that. A lot of people are successfully playing it. So it must
just hate my system for whatever reason. I would hope that it's not because
I don't have a dedicated graphics card. Just your bog standard on-board
thingumajig.
Cheers.
Damien.

ps: doesn't having the name of the file from the game's sourcecode
referenced in an error make it vulnerable to hackers?
