hey im trying to run gtkradiant 1.6.3 on my new laptop with windows 8 and i get this error "gtkradiant synapse server initialization failed" I basically copied all my files from my pc to my laptop, i did not reinstall anything... could this be the issue? i havent had the time to work at the issue so i figured id ask here first to see what was problem, hopefully get a quick answer without having to search for it or someone telling me to use the search feature. |

GtkRadiant needs to initialize itself when it is executed the first time. It writes files to the game and program directories, which has since changed when you migrated between systems. BTW: Just saying "Gtk" means GIMP Tool Kit. It is not the same thing as GtkRadiant, which uses GTK. |

so got it to work half way, it opens but am getting the desktop composition error, but there is no actual check box to disable it, i messed around with the other checkboxes... i can get it to work sometimes but its purely random... so how do i actually fix this, if there is an actual fix |

Right click the Radiant.exe file and go to the "compatibility" tab. I have it configured as follows: "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" is checked. I have the dropdownlist below set to "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" The "Disable visual themes" checkbox is checked. All other checkboxes are unchecked, but you could try checking the "disable desktop composition" checkbox as well. |

Where did you extract GtkRadiant? (Example: C:\GtkRadiant) Where is your game installed? What is in your console log? It should record errors. Also, make sure you install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012. On a 32-bit OS you'll need vcredist_x86.exe. On a 64-bit OS you'll need both vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe |
