Issues fixed

Black screen when launching the game

One cause may be NVIDIA'S Vertical sync setting.

Disable Vertical sync in NVIDIA Control Panel

Open the NVIDIA Control Panel.
Navigate to Manage 3D settings.
Set Vertical sync to either Use the 3D application setting or Off.

If this solves the issue, you can create an exception for this game in the Program Settings tab. That way, you can have Vertical sync enabled globally for your other games, but have it disabled only for this game.

ERR09: Unsupported function

Error message ERR09: Unsupported function caused by aspect ratio containing decimal number. For example 3440x1440 is 21.5:9.

Edit configuration file^{[citation needed]}
Go to the configuration file(s) location. Open `Config.ini`. In the `[DISPLAY]` section, set `FullScreen="OFF"`, or create those sections and lines as necessary.
