Yeah, if that happens - try the link that @Hakumi gave above.

3. You might have double particles, or other particle problems.
- You should also check for doubles in the object files.

What you have to do is go to your particle folder (by default: My Computer -> C: Drive -> Feralheart -> Media -> Particles).

Look at your .particle files. See any with a _0, _1, etc. behind their name? If so, delete them. These are copys automatically made (for some wierd reason I don't know yet - maybe a glitch?) and therefore are uneeded. Be sure you don't delete your main stuff tho, don't kill the original particle template.

It's important to note that 1.15 is a setup, not a patch. If you had FH already installed, it is best to rename the current FH folder to something like "OldFeralHeart" if you have files you need to keep. If not, you could just uninstall and delete it.
The important part is that you install using a fresh install, not overlapping it onto an existing FeralHeart.
This is the best way to avoid any issues.

The next best thing would be to not use the Web Setup, and perhaps go for the torrent:

I have reinstalled it twice now, also tried doing it via the torrent way. It still hasn't fixed the black, also i checked out the particles and there are no double up glitches, so hm. Is there anything else i can do? ://

It could be that the antivirus or something is eating up those important files. Make sure FH is allowed through the antivirus and make sure it doesn't delete the folders.

Install it in a different folder. The (32), (64) folders will require you to start the game in administrator mode in order to access certain files.
You could always right click on the launcher and start in administrator mode, however that just seems extremely tedious. You're better off re-locating it.
