T-34 vs. Tiger Problem

[pavlov90]

Hi, I have installed T-34 vs. Tiger on my computer (Windows 7). I want to start the game and when I try to launch the campaign there is a problem - the game closes and exits to the desktop. I've tried with an original version and have no idea what to do. Could you tell me your solutions?

greetings

Where did you install the game ... program files ?

If so I believe you'll have to un-install and re-install to C:/

Someone with more info should be by soon to help ya out if you have it already installed in C:\

[pavlov90]

I've re-installed the game to C:/, but it still doesn't work...

[von Kinderei]

What exactly does the game do when it tries to start :06:

[pavlov90]

it turns into a black screen and shows an information "program has stopped working" with an option "close program"

[von Kinderei]

Are you runnin' it in XP compatibility mode ?


Does the game start then close down ?


Are ya runnin' SLi if so that could be a problem as well ?

[pavlov90]

yes... but it doesn't work at all

[von Kinderei]

O.K. ...

Delete the videos from the video folder ...

Go here : http://www.tanksimzw.com/dl.htm and D/L No.2 and install and see if that helps


Try that and see if it helps

[pavlov90]

it still doesnt' work. Admittedly without the black screen but the same information..

[von Kinderei]

Are you running Windows 7 64-bit cause if so it doesn't work on that set-up I don't think :(

[pavlov90]

yes, it is win 7 64..:x

[von Kinderei]

Ya could try and install DirectX 9C and and see if that works for ya

Ya could also dis-able the AERO theme ( if ya have it ) and see if that works

In your Windows XP compatibilty is it xpsp2


I'm runnin' outta ideas for ya ... if none of these work HOPEFULLY someone with a little more knowledge will chime in soon !

[von Kinderei]

It'll work on 64-bit but ya have to work at it I THINK :hmmm:

I didn't mean to make it sound like it wouldn't but I think the majority of folks have trouble with it

[von Kinderei]

The files ya D/L'd from ZeeWolf did ya place those in Windows\System32 folder ?

[pavlov90]

The files ya D/L'd from ZeeWolf did ya place those in Windows\System32 folder ?

yes i did... the same with directx 9c.

I have no idea.

[von Kinderei]

Are ya running as admin Windows 7


I'm runnin' outta ideas fast here

[von Kinderei]

Ya could try and do a complete un-install and then a fresh re-install and then up-date everything that I've mentioned ... delte the video files, up-date your DX9C, install the new .dll's and see if that works

[pavlov90]

yep, I've tried all you've suggested but without success. I think it just doesn't work on win7 64

[von Kinderei]

It does work on Windows 7 64 ...

Have ya read some of the other posts here in reference to it

I just don't know what may be the problem with yours ... I've thought of everything I know about

[pavlov90]

I have serched the forum a little bit but I have not found a similar problem

[von Kinderei]

You have the game installed in C:/Lighthouse Interactive/T34vsTiger

You have the video files deleted from the video folder

You have installed the new.dll's in C:/Windows/System32

You have DX9C installed and up-dated

You're NOT running SLi or Cross-Fire

You have AERO theme not runnig

You are the Windows Admin.

You are running it in Windows XP Compatibilty Mode and it's service pack 2


If I can think of anything else that may help I'll reply back here ...

One more thing ya could try is to put those 5 .dll's that you D/L'd from ZeeWolfs site and place those in your T-34vs Tiger main folder where the exe. is located and let it over ride those already in there and see if that works
