TGB crashes or fails at start up.

i just purchased a TGB license after using the demo version w/o problems.
After installing the licensed version, TGB no longer starts. It appears it crashes and closes as soon as it starts.
It opens the TGB web page and that's it, nil. I tried uninstall, restart, and reinstall. Same problem. Tried updating OS X from 10.5.6 to 10.5.7. Same problem.

I've installed TGB v1.7.4; I'm quite certain that the demo was the same version.

I'm using MacBook Pro 2.4GHZ Intel Core2Duo. 4GB RAM. GeForce 8600, 200GB HD w/ plenty of free space.

I'm also using LIttle-Snitch, but all rules are allowed for TGB.

Can anyone help please?

This should probably be in the private forum, but have you looked at the console.log it makes when you launch it? It should be in the same directory as the app.

There will also usually be a crashlog on the system, which can be found with the program Console (launch it from Spotlight). Either of those might give a hint as to where it fails, and why.

Files you could possibly remove to fix the problem:
~/Library/Preferences/com.garagegames.torqueGameBuilder.plist
~/Library/Application Support/GarageGames/*

Thank you. Deleting those files and rebooting worked for me.

This worked for me as well, thanks Ronny!
