Guh...now Compatibility Mode won't open Standalone at all. Very disappointing.
Hopefully the Devs are working on a solution. Crazy that this issue didn't get logged or was somehow missed during Beta Testing.

Again, it's connected to graphics.
Right Click the T-Racks 5 exe and select Properties
Select The Compatibility tab and under Settings, Click "Run This program as an Administrator "
Check the "Override high DPI scaling behaviour.
In the drop down menu change "Application' to "System" or "System (Enhanced)
Click "Apply" and "OK"
Try to start T-Racks Standalone version.
For me this work, but the graphics are a bit blurred. But it is starting T-Racks successfully.
I've informed IK support of this workaround so they can find a real fix.

Ok so now that I've got the standalone version of T RackS working using the modifications to the compatibility as described. I now have another issue. No longer will the EQ plugins display their curves with the exception of EQUAL. You can still move the parametric points around but you can't see the actual curves of what you are doing. Hahaha that's a lot of use! Obviously has something to do with overriding the DPI settings. The plugins work fine inside of my DAW so it's only limited to the standalone version.
NOTE: EQual processor requires an OpenGL 2 compatible graphics adapter.
jcarter200 wrote:No actually EQUAL works absolutely fine it's the rest of the EQ plugins within standalone that aren't displaying their EQ curves. I'm sure this is linked to the fact we had to change a few settings on the graphics option to get this program to open without crashing. I'm hoping IK release a patch that resolves these issues.

Sorry to hear that daronmacke , it seems to work for me. Do you have it set to Compatibility mode for Windows 8 ? I don't have that setting changed so the Compatibility Mode Checkbox is unchecked....
Hopefully support will get to the bottom of it.

No worries Davey...I appreciate your help. So far Support hasn't solved it. They suggested the compatibility trick you provided and they also suggested that I delete a 'settings' file in the TR5 Roaming folder...still nada.

It seems that all the problems related to this are on laptops. In my case I'm on an HP Envy with an Intel HD Graphics 5500 adaptor. The old Intel HD 5500 drivers had problems with OpenGL so if you have that type of Display Adaptor you might get better results by updating to the latest driver although I'm sure you already have. Worth checking out all the same. The latest driver is ver. 20.19.15.4549.
You would still need to do the Compatibility change by Overiding high DPI scaling from 'Application' to 'System' ...also, I've since noticed I don't need to be running as administrator either..
