Update to latest patch and use Win8 compatible trainer.
Tried that, PWizard. Hence my post on page 37.Link. Damnation01 suggested I try the older version, but the trainer crashes before it can even authenticate.
Here's what I've got:
Windows 8.1 64 bit
Steam latest client
Dead Rising 2 latest version
And here's the problems I get:
07.04.2011 - Start the trainer no problem. Launch the game, no problem. Hit F1 at title screen, hear "Activated", no problem. Start a new game, choose a save slot, loading screen, crash to desktop, cry.
01.06.2011 - Start the trainer, trainer crashes.
01.06.2011 Compatibility mode - Start the trainer, trainer crashes.
Current status: getting eaten by zombies.
Sheeeeet. So Windows 8 is never going to be supported for this trainer?
please just give up. there is three versions of this game, and now possibly three more since games for windows is defunct. we can't possibly update them all. if you tried all the trainers and none of them work, then I have no suggestion for you. we aren't going back to update 1000 versions of this trainer from 2010 or whatever to work now. some of the code we DONT EVEN HAVE ANY MORE. the STEAM trainer works fine with windows 8. I have NO OTHER VERSIONS OF THE GAME, and if the steam version somehow patched with games for windows xlive BS, then I have no solution for you.
