Hawkflight Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hello, I'm having trouble launching the game. I insert the disk, and the launcher runs fine. I click 'Game', and up pops a picture of the Ebon Hawk, then I get this error message: http://i.imgur.com/GNAiPC4.png Please help, I really want to play this game without having to pay for a Steam copy. Note: I have am nVidia graphics card, and am running it in compatibility mode (Windows XP SP 2) on Windows 8. I did install the latest patch, IC disabled movies, and I did try unchecking all CPUs except CPU 0 in the Task Manager. Also, someone suggested I add this line to the .ini file, which I did: "Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1" EDIT: Note that I'm running from the original CDs, not the Steam version.

Wedge Suron Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Note: I was about to point you to Steam, but never mind. I'm no expert, but I can recommend the use of Steam, which makes it work on Win 7. I understand where you're coming from though. But... both games cost £6.99 each on Steam. That's not a bad price. Especially since the second game hasn't been on Steam half as long as the original. In the end, if you can't find any other way, then I would suggest Steam. It means that you don't have to worry about losing/damaging a CD. It's there, ready to download. Note: If anyone else can help the original poster, then fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexrd Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Have you tried launching the game from swkotor.exe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
