Hi, I'm having this problem too. Same as in Beta Backer 4. Here is my BB4 post with all the deets: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/96997-bb4-mac-starting-a-new-game-hangs-on-black-screen/ Thanks!

So far I have not been able to start a new game. This is the sequence: 1. The title screen comes up 2. I select my difficulty and click 'new game' 3. Camera rises with music and fades to black 4. Music stops and POE2 becomes unresponsive I am running on a 2014 macbook Pro with 16gb of ram and MacOs 10.13.4 (I also tried it on 10.12) I am running through a Steam installation but have also tried running it directly from under ~/LibraryApplication Support/Steam/steamapps/common I'm not permitted to attach my player.log so I have pasted it in here. Sorry for the verbosity! <<EDIT I have created a pastebin with my player.log in it>> --------- player.log ----------- https://pastebin.com/ZtEDVMj8

Oh no :/ Can you elaborate a bit on your steps to load? Does it attempt the game on steam and just black screen, or are you able to get into a New Game? I can get to the title screen, but when I launch a new game it never gets to the character creation, there's just a black screen unfortunatel Alright thank you for the info, that helps! Can you first try giving it a good amount of time on the black screen? There we some bugs with the loading screen on first load. I let it try to load overnight but still nothing, just a loading black screen. It's okay though! Will just be more anticipation/excitement when I can play in April! Darn I was hoping was this would do it, I am sorry! If youd like to continue troubleshooting it with me please send me a direct message with your specs and I will see if we can get the ball rolling for you! Hi CDiaz, I am having the same problem. I have just bought the backer beta upgrade and installed it. When I run it through Steam I can also get to the title screen and select a difficulty. Once that is done the screen goes black and the application becomes unresponsive. I have left it for 15 minutes without any change.
