You'll find it in the first post of the technical threads above...
Don't know why someone felt the need to move the original post out of plane sight |
sYk0, thanks a lot. Game Works fine under Windows 8. Many fans of this game are able to play it now, because you gave us a fix. Just need to say i'm disapointed with de developers. Cant believe they couldn't release a patch to fix the game.

@FS~looksharp, looks like you have been having some fun online :cool:, hopefully your joy is not short lived.
For more information regarding VAC please see the following KB Article: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...7849-Radz-6869 For clarification about "Cliffs of Dover" and "VAC" please see the following: http://store.steampowered.com/search...der=ASC&page=1 You can see on the product page of the game, it also indicates the game as "Valve Anti-Cheat enabled". Just to clarify, I gave out the VAC warning as a courtesy, I have no idea how VAC works or the implications of using the Windows 8 fix with a VAC enabled game. Please exercise caution, I will not be held responsible for any VAC infringements against your Steam account (Kindly note: All VAC bans are permanent). If you would like clarification regarding the "Windows 8 fix", VAC and "Cliffs of Dover" please submit a support ticket (or post on the forums) to Valve/Steam and ask them, perhaps they could shed some light on the situation. |

I have both files in the COD directory, in the same folder as launcher.exe. There is a installation error where COD tries to install VC redist every time I launch the game. That has happened to me in other games, but it has never prevented me from launching a game. Anyway, I've used the workaround in the other thread to stop it from installing every time I launch it. This is my specs:[*]Win 8 Pro Swedish [*]Build number: 6.2.9200 [*]System Type x64 [*]Graphics drivers are the latest (non beta) 12.10 drivers from AMD [*]My system: Graphics: Gigabyte Windforce 7970OC (AMD) Processor: Intel Core i5 3570K Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth Z77 System disk: Samsung 830 Series MZ-7PC128 128GB Other disk (where steam are): Hitachi Deskstar 7K3000 HDS723020BLA642 64MB 2TB in IRST mode with a 60 GB OCZ Vertex Plus. Memory: Corsair 16GB DDR3 1600MHz (4x) And CoD worked on my previous Win 7 build on the same hardware. I'm pretty sure It worked when I just did an upgrade from 7 to 8 as well, but I'm not 100% certain that was the case. I first made an upgrade instead of a clean install, which went smooth as hell (surprisingly). Decided to do a clean install anyway to start fresh with an new OS. Cheers. And thank you for the great job you are doing. Edit: For some reason it seems to ignore my line breaks after the edit. Sorry for the system spec mess. |

After some digging (and a fresh install of Windows 8 x64 in a virtual machine) around I have found out that Windows 8 does in fact require the VC++ 2010 redistributable package to be installed (I assumed that Windows 8 had these by default). Without the VC++ 2010 runtimes the game silently terminates! Could you please check your "%windir%\SysWOW64" directory for the existence and version of the following files (these are just a handful of the files I noticed the game requires):
Legend:
If you are missing (have an older version) some of the red files, please download (and install) the latest VC++ 2010 SP1 (x86) redistributable package from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl...s.aspx?id=8328. If you are missing some of the blue files, please install the DirectX runtimes from the "...\redist\DirectX\" directory. Regards, sYk0. |
OK. These are the files I have:
msvcr100.dll : 10.00.40219.325 msvcp100.dll : 10.00.40219.325 msvcr110_clr0400.dll : 11.0.50709.17929 d3d9.dll : 6.2.9200.16384 d3dx9_43.dll : 9.29.952.3111 d3dx10_43.dll : 9.29.952.3111 So, I have them all, only difference, the msv files are more recent. To be sure I did a repair with vcredist, but it validated all files. Cheers |
When I try to download the patch, my antivirus program (GDATA) detects a Trojan virus. Has anybody the same problem?

@theleif, do you have Visual Studio (C++ Express) 2010 installed on your PC?
The only info I can find (on msvcr100.dll & msvcp100.dll) that have those version numbers (10.00.40219.325) is from a Visual Studio 2012 Service Pack 1 update. There seems to be a lot of issues (particularly with games) with that version of the .dll (not sure if it's just coincidence). Please open up the Command Prompt (as Administrator) and run the System File Checker (you can see the parameter below in bold red), just to be sure no system files have been tampered with. Quote:

It was installed 2012-10-31 Quote:
"Microsoft Windows [Version 6.2.9200] (c) 2012 Microsoft Corporation. Med ensamrätt. C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow Beginning system scan. This process will take some time. Beginning verification phase of system scan. Verification 100% complete. Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not supported in offline servicing scenarios. C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow Beginning system scan. This process will take some time. Beginning verification phase of system scan. Verification 100% complete. Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations." So there was an error, but it got corrected. Quote:
After doing this (verifying and disabling antivirus) I still get the same error. Sadface. Thank you for your patience. |
