can't run the game

Recommended Posts

I have the game in my steam library but when I launch it, nothing happens. I have already verified the cache files, tried to run it with avast protection, Iobit Malware fighter each and both off, tried to run both steam and the game as an administrator, then tried after reinstalling in another drive. There is no crash dump in Steam/userdata.

Get rid of that IOBit snake oil that's free advice, take it or leave it. Faffing with UAC is pointless IMO.

Failure to launch is probably dependencies. If Steam thinks it's installed, back it up. Remove and restore, this will trigger the installation of the first run dependencies.

I take it your PC meets the minimum requirements? You could send me a DXDiag so I can see some information about your PC. http://forums.codemasters.com/discussion/comment/294776/#Comment_294776

That said if the game has never worked you should probably just ask Steam for a refund. You can always buy it again later on.

I've installed the game on another PC and it works there. It seems to be an installation problem, my laptop miss the "first launch configuration" and perhaps something's wrong with directx

Laptops are not something I know a lot about but sometimes they try to use the wrong graphics card when playing games. You would have to search the internet to find out how to work around those issues on your particular laptop.

I'm glad to hear it's working on another PC. Have fun.
