DEATHWALKER95 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 okay nvm i just cant win with this game at all ever. So after i did what you said it started up but i didnt try to play i then added mods and it broke again. so after doing multiple things i redownloaded the game, tried to start, it failed, then disabled games for windows and tried again, it failed to start again, i then tried validating the cache and it had 1 file missing, tried to start it up and it failed again, now i have tried every fix and it still wont work do you have any other ideas?
