Luckily, the exception is triggered in the updater and it is possible to skip the updater by launching with:

Pandora --no-update

... and then the game will launch.

I have experienced this problem on both on my computers, so it is unlikely to be a random installation corruption or so.

So it looks like the game is using libboost v1.56, but the removal of v1.52 seems incomplete.

@Tanaka: Your issue sounds completely different from that. This sounds like the Agent0-2.xml is from an older version. Do you have a mod or something like that installed that may override the these files?

This should be fixed with 1.6.5. Are you still having issues?

Ok you guys were right it was a mod I had. I deleted the data folder I had in "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Proxy Studios\Pandora\" and the game loads now. Thanks!
