Error while updating version 1.30

Postby ceandersen ยป 01 Mar 2017 20:36

Hallo Kameraden,

It was outdated version (I think 1.2 or 1.22). When installing the new version (1.3) can not access the Panzer Korps.
The update file was run without any problems.

This is the error screen that appears after I click launcher

Can someone help me? I need to play :)

Hi VPaulus,
I already tried to do this, but it did not work.
Anyone have any more tips to try?

Is the crash before or after the video intro?

Before, because I click on "play" and immediately the error occurs.

Have you tried in uninstalling and reinstalling the game in the correct installation order?

The correct order for reinstalling Panzer Corps and its expansions, is the release order:
1. Panzer Corps Wehrmacht
2. Grand Campaign '39
3. Grand Campaign '40
4. Grand Campaign '41
5. Grand Campaign '42
6. Grand Campaign '43 East
7. Afrika Korps
8. Grand Campaign '44 East
9. Grand Campaign '45 East
10. Grand Campaign '42-'43 West
11. Grand Campaign '44 West
12. Grand Campaign '45 West
13. Grand Campaign Mega Pack '39 - '45 (if you don't have the separate Grand Campaigns)
14. Allied Corps
15. Operation Sea Lion
16. Grand Campaign Mega Pack '39 - '45 with Sea Lion (if you don't have the separate Grand Campaigns and Operation Sea Lion)
17. Soviet Corps
18. U.S. Corps '42
19. U.S. Corps '43
20. U.S. Corps 1944-1945
21. Patch 1.30

VPaulus,
Is this crazy, trying to reinstall everything?
Everything worked comes up to item 14.
It's a lot of work and it will take hours ... but ok, I'll try. I need play! :)

It might be that something is corrupted in the game's installation. I would also try to run the game everytime a new expansion is installed.

You can always redeem a Steam key, and it will be much quicker to install via Steam. :)

Sorry for my ignorance, but I do not understand "to install via Steam". :/

Hello Guys!
I finally got it to work. It was necessary to run the "launcher" as "admin", so almost everything works!
It was not necessary to reinstall anything. It would be too much work and I was not prepared for it. :)

But now my sound does not work, should I open another post or can we continue talking in this post?

Try changing the audio legacy setting.

Yes, I did it, however only the sound works, the music does not play.
In both options the result is the same ... only the sound of battles. The soundtrack does not work.

It might be a broken codec. I suggest you to convert the the music mp3 files to wave files.
