    Benchmark Failing

    I play FFXIV currently and have no problems running it. Yet, when I go to run the Heavensward Benchmark it does not run at all. The Benchmark shuts down automatically and returns to "character creation" and "start" window. Any suggestion as to why this is happening?

    I'm seeing the same issue ... The benchmark launches and no matter how I tweak the settings if I enter character creation or start the benchmark crashes.

    PLEASE help!!!!

    Won't even start and my computer meets the stated requirements.

    The generated file has a typo:
    [EVN]
    REGION=1
    LAUNGUAGE=1 <<<< has a typo

    Maybe it can't properly run the check because of that?

    Windows 7 x 64 Pro
    1920x1080 display
    Directx 11
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770
    Intel Core i7-4790k
    ASUS Maximus Hero VII

    Things tried:
    Ran as Admin and not; Also attempted with and without firewall/antivirus
    Redownloaded, reunzipped, reinstalled FFXIV Benchmark
    Redownloaded, reinstalled Directx 9c & 11
    Checked video driver with NVIDIA
    Downgraded video settings to match minimum
    Rebooted numerous times
    Windows Update
    Deleted ini; corrected ini

    doesn't work

    Getting the same issue here, it'll ask if I want to run the application, then just reload the launcher. The strange thing is it worked the first time I used it, but then when I went to increase the settings, it failed, and continued to fail when I changed it back to the settings it failed at the first time.

    Edit: Rebooted, everything works now.

    Empty Zip Folder

    I'm having a different problem.

    When I download the zip file for the benchmark, all I'm getting is an empty zip folder. Am I missing something?

    I'm also having a different problem.

    I downloaded the zip file and extracted it onto my computer however when I go to run the application nothing comes up, nothing happens. Can someone help me with this?
