reeekt 07/07/17 12:55:43 AM #1:	I just bought a game and was sure to make sure my computer could handle it, but when I go to play it, absolutely nothing happens. I searched for solutions and the only thing I got was to go to "verify integrity of game files." I clicked it about ten minutes ago and absolutely nothing is happening. I have a window that basically says 0%. My connection is working and otherwise the computer is fine... I also tried after installing the recent updates. Any solutions? This is getting very aggravating. I've never used steam, so cut me some slack. --- ALL lives matter. <cite>reeekt posted [p:882471722] in What is wr...

reeekt 07/07/17 1:00:00 AM #3:	I did. The only thing I can think to do is to reinstall the game but I'm just not sure whether the validation process may take a while? A YouTube video I watched did the same thing but said it sometimes takes a long time. --- ALL lives matter. <cite>reeekt posted [p:882471893] in What is wr... [t:75539452]...</cite> <quote>I did.

reeekt 07/07/17 1:10:30 AM #5:	I literally spent my entire day fighting, arguing and swearing over the phone. While I somehow managed to resolve all of this is a very friendly way, I am just beyond taxed right now and it's my fault for assuming that such a popular service may actually just, y'know... work? Point is, I guess I know what I'm going to have to do tomorrow: call and try to get another refund. I swear, if people just stopped pushing my buttons and messing with me, I would be so much more pleasant. --- ALL lives matter. <cite>reeekt posted [p:882472292] in What is wr...

ChromaticAngel 07/07/17 1:16:28 AM #7:	Allurade_Dendra posted... What game? this is important, particularly if it's an older game. V:tM Bloodlines literally wouldn't do shit unless I launched Steam as Administrator, for example, no matter how many times I restarted my computer. But FWIW your problem is something that I encounter when I leave steam running for a really long time and it hasn't updated in forever. --- https://puu.sh/tcLsT/24f4611235.png <cite>ChromaticAngel posted [p:882472510] in What is wr...

Doe 07/07/17 1:18:26 AM #8:	Seriously, 85% chance it's a problem with the game, not Steam. Steamclient is a glorifed launcher and DRM, little more. --- http://i.imgur.com/iwo6yR9.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uqXNtk6.jpg <cite>Doe posted [p:882472589] in What is wr...

Doe 07/07/17 1:27:37 AM #17:	Okay TC From my research it sounds like you need to find a configuration file that will let you launch the game from there, and apparently it can be found in the game's main directory or by right clicking it in steam. --- http://i.imgur.com/iwo6yR9.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uqXNtk6.jpg <cite>Doe posted [p:882472940] in What is wr...
