@Emvek im having the same issue as well

[Dss0]

@Emvek KikoElZamalkawy most likely broken game files. https://plutonium.pw/docs/repair/

Dss0 I have the same problem, i followed the steps and it's not solved

[ljave018]

Dss0 fixed game files, it loads like a charm.

Having the same problem, except it's on Linux and only when loading T5sp/zm

T5 MP works (albeit no SFX and only music plays) and the other games in Plutonium from IW5 to T4/6 work just fine in either of their respective modes.

Even with T5 directly downloaded onto the drive to mitigate corrupted transfers, it's still the same case:

ThatOneSeong try terminating plutonium bootstrapper process, and then relaunching the game via launcher.

[ThatOneSeong]

@Emvek As in terminating the program and retrying?

Said screenshot was taken after ten iterations of this troubleshooting process already. No change.

[ljave018]

ThatOneSeong like going into terminal and terminating bootstrapper.

[ThatOneSeong]

@Emvek Is this not already what I've been doing?

If I terminate the bootstrapper, the whole process goes with it, and by succession, the wine prefix process itself.

i solved this error myself, the issue was when i first started playing the game i was in 1080p, but when i was trying to play the game and getting this error, i was in a different resolution. i fixed it by going back to 1080p, launching t5 zombies, and changing the resolution to what i wanted it to be.

edit: if you find the config file for t5 you could probably change the resolution in there too

This does not seem to resolve the issue on Wine; it also seems to crash too soon for the game to generate an sp config to edit in the first place.

bump

Out of curiosity, I found Plutonium's log stored in its AppData dir tree and took a look at it. And uh

WARNING: Could not find zone 'B:\WinGames\Plutonium\T5\zone\english\en_plutonium_ui.ff'

Is this relevant at all, or supposed to be there? This file doesn't seem to exist either in the relevant T5 path, nor is there any such thing in Plutonium's T5 storage.

[ThatOneSeong]

Found the solution, at least on Linux;

The error is because of xact verb not being installed in Plutonium's prefix. Adding it in fixed T5 loading as well as missing sound effects in MP and in T4.

(Prefix used has dotnet472 vcrun20xx, DXVK, and Lutris' D3D Extras installed up to this point)

[ljave018]

ThatOneSeong glad that you fixed the issue! hope you can now enjoy the gameplay.

[IIIxxIII]

how do you change the resolution in the files

@Andres-Yer ddl no dll

[Skull_cod]

I have been with this launcher for about 3 days. The first day everything was going well for me, until yesterday it wouldn't let me open BO1 Zombies but the online one.

I have tried everything that came out in this thread: repair files, download the ddl file... nothing

Can someone please give me a 100% effective solution for windows? Thank you very much.

[ljave018]

This is temporary solution, but effective one.
Open command prompt
Type out the following:
taskkill /f /im plutonium-bootstrapper-win32.exe /t
Relaunch Plutonium.

You can also make a script:
Echo off
color 0a
taskkill /f /im plutonium-bootstrapper-win32.exe /t
echo Relaunching the bootstrapper!
start [Insert path where Plutonium launcher is located]
pause
