Plutonium

I guess it had to do with my PC not the game itself, I made a full reset to my PC and the game is working with no issues now!
Thank you Dss0 for trying to help I really appreciate it!

Dss0 Nope no luck

Dss0 The thing is, I tried restarting the PC multiple times and I made sure from the task manager that anything that is running in the background is closed.

Deicide Yes you are definitely right! but the thing is I have the game on Xbox I just wanted to play it with my friends on PC
Ps. I'm currently using the one from the plutonium torrent not any of the others.

Dss0 Thanks for replying!
I tried installing the game from the official torrent multiple times as I said in my post and I have not only excluded the files as shown in the link you mentioned, I also turned off windows defender completely (I'm not using any other anti virus program) but it's still not working.

Hello,
I have tried re-downloading the whole game from the official tutorial like 3 times and I tried the noSteam, skidrow and fitgirl versions but still no luck...

When I launch the plutonium launcher and click play (after setting it up to the game's directory) the bootstrap launches and then it's just stuck on "Loading fastfile code_pre_gfx_mp"

Here is a screenshot:

I'm running windows 10 Pro 64bit and my specs are really good so I don't think it has to do with the PC itself (although it worked for 2 of my friends who have much weaker devices).
Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
