Windows 7 Compatability

[kubira]

I have W7, but cant get game to run, has anyone had success running Fiesta on W7

Well, given that it is only on RC status, I am not surprised. I would suggest trying compatibility mode. I do not have Windows 7, so I don't know where that is. In XP and Vista, go to the properties of the program's EXE (or shortcut to the EXE) and there's a Compatibility tab. Try running it in XP Mode.

It will not work, I tried everything and it just won't work. You will have to wait until it's compatible with W7 (although Fiesta is one of the few programs I could not make work on W7, most of my games worked).

Compatibility mode doesnt work as well. Currently, I can get past the Outspark Launcher and attempt to load the game, but when the actual game opens up Xfire closes and complains an error occurred. I've tried looking up the error code and emailed them about it, but nothing is working. I guess we gotta wait till Xfire can work with Windows 7.

Win 7 is still in Beta until October 09, and OS isn't going to make it compatible till final release. So I don't understand why people have Win 7 when it's in beta -.-

on another note, i also have xp pro sp3 on a seperate part. and when i run the app in that, all i get is a blank launcher, ie. no net content...

Any idea how to sort that out?

I tried out the Compatibility Mode as well, and got the exact same problem. The issue is that X-Trap does not want to give out an official release of its product until at least Windows 7 is officially shipped at the end of October; until then, all of those people who are using Windows 7 primarily will not be able to play on games that use X-Trap and GameGuard (though GameGuard apparently has some user modified patches). You'll just have to deal with it till then, or go back to your original OS (e.g. XP or Vista).

I also received a message from OutSpark on this issue (after I contacted them), which is how I know this.

Virtual Machines ftw.

At any rate, if you have Windows 7, you should realize that you cannot expect things to necessarily work since it has not been fully released.

Yup, X-trap won't let ya'.
