It's strange I have to go this far for some basic support.
Cant you just attach the file to your original post in this thread
(Click the cog wheel next to the star, then edit. It should say "attach a file" right above the save/preview buttons)
Nope that won't work. Best is to use some kind of cloud drive like dropbox or google drive.
Have you tried all the things in the how to make a good tech support post? They work in most cases.
If you realy can't upload your tech_support.zip pls post your dxdiag and log.
EDIT: ...I don't actually know how to attach files to this forum. Just upload it to google drive. Just the zip with no dump first, it's much faster that way, if that doesn't contain the needed information you will need to upload the whole thing.
if you navigate to your hidden
%appdata%/Natural Selection 2/
folder you will notice a system_options.xml file.
Open it in notepad or some text editing software.
Find and change
<device>D3D9</device>
to
<device>D3D11</device>
or the other way around.
Then change
<window-mode>fullscreen</window-mode>
to
<window-mode>windowed</window-mode>
Save it then close it.
Now run NS2.
You should see the menu now, and you can now change the graphics options to your native resolution, and swap back to fullscreen and DX9 etc...
If you cant see the menu, we need your log.txt thats found in that very same folder.. it should have an error.
Did not work. I hope this google drive doesn't bite me in the butt. Here's the link, I think.

Have at it!
This is probably the issue. Do you have the following file, "\Steam\steamapps\common\natural selection 2\ns2\game_setup.xml".
If not I might be able to give you one so it works, verify from steam would also prob work but I don't trust that.
I have that xml file.
I never thought you pirate the game. Just wanted to be sure every file is there what indeed is the case.
Kinda true if he uses the same user account to play^^. But that all doesn't explain why the ns2.exe is unable to read the content of the install folder. A security sofware blocking access maybe?
The game is already allowed through my firewall
