Basically, i've done everything that i can to get MWO to work, but i cant. The Game launcher will come up and i can play, log in to the game, but after that when it loads all it does is close, i dont know what to do because even when i wait to see if it was doing something, nothing happened. I would like to play the game but i don't know how at this point. Please someone help!

Have you tried the repair tool?

What are your computer specs?

Are you running the game in dx9 mode if so then..

Actually, you do need to install Directx 9c. Vista/7/8 comes with DX 10/11 and a base version of dx9. The issue is that MS does not include all the latest modules for dx 9c, nor are the DX10/11 backward compatible. Even a fresh XP install will require DX 9c installation for those updated modules.

DX 10/11 and DX 9c are located in their own subfolders, they do not overwrite each other. Programs and games are set to locate the necessary files from their respective location.

MWO currently utilizes ONLY dx9c files, thus the need to install dx 9c with either the dxsetup.exe (small file that downloads everything from MS) or the redistribution file (large file but useful if installing on several machines or need to reinstall to replace possible corrupted files).

Or

You will notice that it supports more than just XP.

Most games that come on a CD/DVD will also have a setup to install the updated modules by using one of the paths. For other games that are download only, they direct you to MS to download (using that site's bandwidth instead of their own) and perform the installation, from a trusted source ( hehe Microsoft..: )

Start with this and let us know how you make out.

Also make sure your video drivers are up to date.

Im using the Repair tool right now, and i hope it will fix it. My computer specs wont matter because i could run this game on my older computer on low, and this computer i have now is about 4 times better, but still what i need to play the game.

It almost worked after the Repair but i dont know why it still isnt.

[CelestialBlight]

I give, it doesnt work.

Have you installed the DX9.0C library yet as Shamous13 pointed out?

Greetings,

Ok, old original question, have you set the MWO start exe to run as an Admin, some of the areas that the game needs to establish the connection have admin rights only access. With out that access level it will not complete it's start-up and stop.

You must have the Net framework and C++ installed and up to date.
Ffind them here:
Version 4.5.1 http://www.microsoft...s.aspx?id=40773

C++ download, then select the 32 or 64bit item you need:
http://www.microsoft...s.aspx?id=40784

Try those then reboot and start the game.
