    Yes, if you're playing GTA V? Then you should be able to play this without issues really.

    I'm not sure what to suggest at this stage, however, if it was me, I would likely do the following (if you haven't already).

    Uninstall the game, navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents and delete the Ylands folder. (Or the equivalent location for windows 8)

    Reinstall Ylands, see if it's fixed.

    If not, I could only suggest something like a driver assistance tool, I personally use Driver Booster, because they constantly release free "Pro Version" keys on YouTube, just search on there for "Driver Booster Key". The advantage of this is it can check for up-to-date drivers for all your devices, and searches for latest dependencies for games as well, this saves me a lot of time and hassle. I use it a lot on fresh builds to save sourcing all the drivers from manufacturers and get the machine game-ready, I never have any issues but I've been using Windows 7 and not 8.

    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a bunch of times. Still doesn't work

    I would imagine you are likely missing a required dependency that either Ylands.exe or YlandsLauncher.exe needs to function correctly.

    Windows update should fix this, or you could attempt to uninstall Ylands and reinstall it, as I'm not certain if these dependencies are included in the game files at this early stage, this might do nothing.

    A developer could likely elaborate further on what could be missing or needing updating.

    In the meantime, you could potentially look to see if the following generally used dependencies are installed and/or updated on your machine (or just run windows update), though I have not much clue as to which if any of these could be required.

    - Latest Graphics Card drivers - Can be sourced from the manufacturer website of your device likely either AMD or NVIDIA.

    - Latest DirectX updates - A guide can be found from Microsoft.

    - Latest C++ Redistributables - A selection can be found from Microsoft.

    - Latest .NET Framework - .NET 4.0 or perhaps .NET 4.6.2.

    - Latest XNA Framework (not sure if needed at all) - Can be downloaded from Microsoft.

    Failing this, it may prove useful to provide the version of Windows on your machine, and system specifications, to allow further diagnosis.

    Also, the developers often ask which DirectX version are you using? And inform you that Ylands requires version 11.1, though version 11 seems to work for me (unsure if the .1 shows up anyway in dxdiag).

    You can find this by typing "dxdiag" in to the Windows Run / Search box in the start menu, and pressing Enter.

     

    As far as I am aware, everything is up to date. I updated windows and my drivers very recently. I typed "dxdiag" and it says my DirectX is 11. I use Windows 8.1
