| Problem with Launching Flatout: Ultimate Carnage via Steam |
| (1/1) |
| Dodger:
This is the only game that gives me this error. When I go to launch it, it first says remember this key for multiplayer. Then I click on OK, and then Windows asks me if I want to let the game make changes to my computer, and I say yes, and finally, a steam first time setup screen comes up for a second then goes away and nothing happens. I tried reinstalling the game and looking up steam support but it isn't helping. Anyone know what could be wrong? |

This happened to me too, I submitted a Steam ticket for it a long time ago. Just wait till I get in my Steam account to get a some quotes.. Edit: Here's the convo with Steam support: --- Quote from: Me ---Hello, i sent a support ticket i couldn't connect to key server. It been solved, now i am into another problem: After i press "PLAY" at the key window where i also got a CD-Key it goes like this: 1. I press play 2. Window appears the game loads: "Performing first time setup..." "Installing (part 1 of 1)" 3. Window closes and NOTHING else is happing Notes: I checked in the Task Manager and there's no FlatOut.exe or anything. While i have the windows open with Performing first time setup etc. my name appears in GREEN, and my friends see me as in-game, after window closes i remain green for some seconds then it's back to blue. And nothing pops up. I do not have a router ONCE it became something with Microsoft Live something... After Part 2 above: "Performing first time setup" etc. Thank you, I hope this problem is solved since i really want to play the game. If the problem gets solved before i receive any message from you I will close the "session" after i will post a additional comment like "Problem solved". Thank you, yet again. --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Them ---Hello Alex, Thank you for contacting Steam Support.

Works fine for me. The only problem I had was with updating GFWL, but that was easily fixed by signing in on another game (like DiRT 2) and downloading the update from there. |
