PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE POST BEFORE COMMENTING. I want you to know exactly what I've tried, so that you don't accidentally say something I've already tried.
Like a handful of other people, Feralheart will not open for me, instead giving me the "Feralheart has stopped working" error. This is a newer problem - when I FIRST downloaded it, it would start, but only music would play (the screen would remain black). I fixed this by changing it from running in Ogre to running in Direct3D9 via the ogre file, only to get this error instead. I have not installed maps, and there are no duplicate files in my media > particles folder (as some say this may be a cause of the problem). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the games 4 times (two using the online installation, one using the download installation, and one using the torrent), and every time I do, I get the same problem. I am using a Windows 7 computer. There was a mention of it being a problem with the drivers, but my computer does not use either of the drivers mentioned - it uses an Intel processor instead of AMD or whatever. Is it simply that this computer cannot run it? Or is there anything I can do?
I also apologize if I seem rather rude about how insistent I am on the READ CLEARLY thing - every time I've needed help previously, people just kept telling me to do the thing I'd already said I had done, and I'm just a little irritated.

Do you run Feral Heart on an USB stick or on your State Drive? If you ran it on an Stick, try it on your State Drive. If you did it on the State Drive, try it at a Stick. (I installed it on a stick because it didn't run on my SSD O.o)

Hey there, I have something you could try doing and if you have Windows 7 it should work fine. Delete and uninstall FH from your computer, fully, so no files will remain. After you have done that, restart your computer. Now, the FH game file should not have any problems when you download it because I have tested the 4 ways that you have tried: 'two' using the online installation, 'one' using the download installation, and 'one' using the torrent. Try downloading it again and make sure all the files are there. If it still does not work, take a screenshot of your FH file and media file and post it here, I might see what's the problem clearly, that's how I usually fix things. :3

Bloodwolf also has made a point there, take his advice. :)

I have deleted my game completely, time and time again, so sadly that will not work.
I will, however, attempt to run it out of stick drive as soon as I can get one. Hopefully that will produce better results!

Alright, do what pleases you! :) I hope it works that way and make sure it is not only deleted, but also uninstalled everywhere.
