Why the game is crashing
For some reason this game hates x64 bit systems and or dose not want to run is x64 bit mode.

Or at least this is what I can make of this from all the online forums.

In the coming segments i will run through the steps to allow the game to open and playable.
Step one!
Open the game files for the game.

The easiest way to find these game files is to go to your steam library and find "StoneHearth" and right click on it and head to "Manage" , Then click on "Browse Local Files".

This will bring up all the game files we will need!
Step two!
Look for a file called "user_settings.json", select the file and left click. Open the file with notepad, Notepad++, Wordpad or any other file editor.

Once opened there are a few states this file can be in:

If the game is freshly installed it may look something like this ->

{
"user_id" : "b95a45d0-0e31-11e5-bbe0-74d435857f2e"
}

If this is the case, skip to step three. If this is not the case then continue

In this file you should be able to find a setting that looks like this ->

`"force_32_bit" : false,`

(If you are unable to find this setting once again skip to part 3.) Change this to -> `"force_32_bit" : true,`. Once this is done try running the game again and it should run fine. if for what ever this dose not work please follow step three.



Step three!
If all else fails just delete or remove the file called "x64" and all of its continence.

Please bare in mind that the game may potentially become unstable after removing these files, not sure why just what i have seen from my testing.

the game should run and be playable after removing these files.

Thanks so much for reading and I hope it helps!
