Game not starting

[Jonas]

The ISO in the torrent and the ISO in the direct download are identical. Similarly, the EXE in the direct download and the EXE in the ISO are identical.

So in order to play this mod, I'm going to have to find a boxed copy of Deus Ex? Is that what you're saying.

By the way, I uninstalled it again, installed it and let the Namelessmod.exe install the patch for me. Didn't fix the issue. I'd love to get to the bottom of this thing. Let me know if I can be of any help.

*EDIT* Patched with your 1.01 patch, and the game runs! YAYAYAYAYAAY. Can't wait to play!

[Jonas]

Hm... maybe it was just because you were missing the VC redist then.

[Shadow Warrior]

Well....it isn't working for me...post-patch.

I'm having the same issue with the D2D version of Deux Ex, TNM won't load at all and gives that message about beyond EOF. Deus Ex runs fine but not TNM either without the patch or with the patch (and the dll fix). I'm hoping this issue is resolve-able (as are we all, I'm sure), this looks like a great mod and I've been bigtime looking forward to playing it.

i have the trymedia d2d ver, i checked the tnm.log and DeusExCharacters.u seems te be the culprit

[Trestkon]

Mind posting your log?

If there is anything I can do to help such as posting a log file or trying different ini-file settings (if there is one) feel free to let me know. I am really looking forward to playing this but I can't with the D2D version of the game. Thank you in advance.

[NFLed]

Sorry to dredge up a semi-old thread but am I correct in believing that this problem -- trying to play TNM with the Direct2Drive version of Deus Ex -- will likely not be solved? If that's the case then at some point I'll try to pick up a regular version of the game (maybe the Steam version works fine?).

[Jonas]

I think it probably won't, no. Nobody seems to have any idea how or why the Direct2Drive version differs from the retail version, so it seems unlikely that we'll find a way to fix it.

[NFLed]

Ok thanks.

[Shadow Warrior]

alright, I got my hands on what I believe is a version of the Deus Ex directory that was from a CD copy of Deus Ex. Do you guys think this would help?

[Shadow Warrior]

Ok I replaced all the folders from the new CD version of the Deus Ex directory (as I was copying I noticed that the only files in this CD version of the directory were the files: Help, Maps, Music, Save, Sounds, System, Textures) with the old D2D versions. I then tried to start Deus Ex up....it worked fine. Then tried TNM and got this:

Can't find Class in file 'Class DeusEx.KillerProfile'

History: UObject::SafeLoadError <-UObject::StaticLoadClass <- InitGameInfo <- UGameEngine::LoadMap <- UGameEngine::Init <- XGameEngineExt::Init <- DDeusExGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine


Any idea what this means?

[Shadow Warrior]

Alright, I reinstalled TNM and NOW IT WORKS, FTW!! Now I'm soo excited! My semester just ended so I can actually get into the game too. Thanks for the help guys.
