And to this day, there has been no luck for me.
Update:
Ladies and Gentlemen, I may have found the solution to the black screen problem.
Well, I found a solution for myself. I won't guarantee its success with you, but you can give it a try ...
First, I downloaded the original installer from Enterbrain's official website. Then, I used that installer to "repaired" both the RTP AND the RMXP application. Finally, within RMXP's default directory, I opened the properties of the RMXP application and established the following settings ...
I DO NOT run the program in compatibility mode. I don't think that made a difference, but anyways, I do run it as an administrator. The significant change that had yet to be mentioned however, was made on the first page of the properties tab. I unchecked the "read only" attribute from the RMXP editor application. I also unchecked the "read only" attribute from the RGSS application within the system folder inside the Enterbrain folder. If you had a shortcut on your desktop, replace it with this new file.
See if that works for you.
Good luck my friends -Calintz-
Update:
Can anybody confirm whether or not this worked for them??
My test play works fine now. I can test music and everything in the editor now too.
