Issues fixed

Crash at launch (no error message)

Install the game outside Program Files (running as an administrator does not fix this). The game will then run properly without any compatibility modes or other tweaks.

Crash when loading gameplay (no error message)

You have set a resolution your monitor does not support. Select a new resolution in-game or edit bmx.ini (see Widescreen resolution).
