Game doesn't launch at all (pc win7)

This why I gave up on gaming on my old laptop and got a desktop. Laptop GPUs are not comparable to desktops ones with the same name so often a laptop will not meet minimum specs for games.
Windows 10 is a free upgrade still I believe. If you really are not fussed about windows 7 then an upgrade would be where I would start

Still doesn’t work for me :frowning:

Did my fix work for you???

Nope , sadly, it did not :frowning:

Damn, do you have same issue as me or different? Soon as you start game it stops Working/Crashing?

I found the solution for me, I had to download Universal C Runtime in Windows, basically update my system. Update everything through Windows updates, get the service pack. Check this https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows

Hard to say it stops working. it never starts working… as exlained earlier… klick ‘start’, se a fraction of a second the steam “preparing to launch…” window, then nothing happens.

Must be a different issue to me, I get the KCD popup flash mini screen and then game crashes / stops working soon as you click on shortcut from desktop. I figured a fix for that though.

I’ll just shelf my copy for the time being, and wait for the mext patches and the forums to cool down after all the over boiling bile…And then try and start a thread, looking for help

I tried your fix now but i always have my error 0x000007b
anyway, thanks to have submit it

I’ve installed the lastest nvidia drivers but nothing change.

I am going to investigate this windows error code…

Please don’t get angry with me. :blush: But did you try and reinstall https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14632 ?

Hello,

I have original dvd game version with activation on steam, Windows 8.1., six-core AMD FX-6300, GeForce GTX1050 Ti grafic card. U try reinstall game, reinstall all Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable versions, reinstall .net framework. I use sfc /scannow in command line, I check intergity game files in steam app, I check windows update, I check graffic driver for nvidia. But not working :frowning:

Hi.
I’ve had the same problem - after starting the game in Steam or in tis dorectory nothing happend.
Here’s what fixed it for me (note i have Windows 8):

  1. Turn off all of Your Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware software
  2. Try to run the game from its directory as Administrator
    There I had another problem, an error that MSVCP140.DLL is Missing. I downloaded teh latest version of Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio l from Microsoft website.
    Again I tried to run the game as Administrator and… got another error. This tine it was :Unsupported Graphics Card detected. A GPU with support for D3D FeatureLevel 11.0 is required.
    Because I have a laptop with 2 GPU (GeForce 860 M and some Intel integrated card) I selected my GeForce as a default GPU for every program.
    And I had the same error again. I thought taht this is the end as my GPU is too old but I found a solution for this.
    You have to check i Your GPU supports DirectX 11. If it does uninstall Your GPU - Your PC should reinstall it.
    Started the game as Administrator with all Anti-Virus software and it started working…untill I had a black screen. But I also found a fix for this:
    Go to Game Directory and changed the vegetation LOD from 50 to 30 in system.cfg file.
    Finally,(drum roll) it started working.
    Hope it works for You guys.

Lol you had to do all that to play a broken game? My condolences.

Hi,

thanks to all i succeeded tonight to launch the game!

Instead of trying to install again and again the visual c++ and framework modules, I have uninstalled all these modules i had from the program management page in the control panel. I had around 15 lines of these things installed in various versions.
Then i installed all these packages again (about visual c++ only 2005 sp1, 2010 sp1, and 2015, about framework only 4.71).

I turned off malwarebytes (in fact in my first attempt it was already off, but it was on since i did a scan to verify if my problem didn’t come from a virus).

And i also have to say that i have put a “api-ms” DLL package in the game .exe folder because at first there was a missing dll error (and after i had the error 0xc000007b wich is no more).
