Can't start game after last beta update .14. Setting up a game as normal and game tells me something like "Can't start this game" from the ingame menu. I tried doing a quick start random, which then gave me 2 more of the "Cant start" messages and finally a Memory violation.

Now, I uninstalled.. and can't find the install file for original DS anymore <_< I still have the Shakturi v15 install and the Legends v17 installs, but not the original install. Any way to get that another time? I only have the matrix games confirmation email for digital download in my postbox, no download link of old.

Similar to this?

You'll need to open a helpdesk ticket to get them to give you a download link.

Not quite - I was up to klicking on the start game button after setting my custom options, and when the rotating galaxy appears with the "Setting up game" It threw the error messages and later the exception.

Created a helpdesk ticket after your reply but no response yet.

Sadly for the tech issue, Luckily for me, support gave me a link to get the game installer, I installed all 3 parts + patch 14 and it just works. :P
