Regarding the Trainer, $999.999 Gold, Unlimited Movement, ....



So I started playing this game yesterday, using the updated trainer, and it worked great.

However, when I try to start the trainer and the game, the trainer is not able to find the game anymore.

I can hit F1 till the cows come home, and nothing happens.

I'm on 64bit Vista, running the trainer as administrator (this worked a bunch of times, until it just didn't work anymore).

Any clues?

Oh, and I miss the gun-totin' elephants!

make sure you either looked at the trainer troubleshooting guide and/or disabled your anti-virus.

Yeah, that was the first place I looked. And there's no anti-virus. And nothing has changed. It's just not finding the game anymore.

Restart your computer and hopefully the cows will come home, *ehem* I meant your computer will recognize the game.

Done, done and done. No dice.

Thats odd, i use vista 64 also and without using admin at all i have no problem

The first thing Steam did after I installed this game was update it. Methinks the version may have changed, which has screwed the trainer.

I can't find any way of checking the version, though. Most annoying.

Ok, I got it working again.

The trick? I have to hold down the Enter-key while pressing F1.

I have no idea what causes this, nor do I remember how I discovered it... I guess I was just hitting all the keys at once, or something.
