Issue: Could not authenticate to Plutonium: snowroller uninitialized

OR

Error: Handshake: certificate verify failed

Solution: This error occurs when you are trying to launch an outdated version of Plutonium. However, this should not happen if you are launching the game via Plutonium.exe which checks for updates on each launch. So if you are starting the launcher via plutonium-launcher-win32.exe please do not. Launch via plutonium.exe

Issue: GPUDriverD3D11::CreateTexture, unable to create texture.
Possible Solution:

Issue: When starting the launcher it displays this error message:

Solution:

• If you downloaded one of our torrents remove it from your torrent client (right click the torrent in your torrent client -> delete)
• Restart your pc
• Delete plutonium.exe and plutonium.new.exe
• Re-download the launcher from here and run it: https://cdn.plutonium.pw/updater/plutonium.exe

because activision would sue us instantly.

@VergifyZ said in Plutonium BO2 Torrent Download Being The Downfall for T6:

Ok lets start off with saying Torrent is a BAD Move A.Its Practically illegal to even Download things on it

Yea and piry is totally legal right? Exactly the same thing just a different method of transfering files. If you're concerned about legality you should just buy the game on steam.

Cause People will get DMCA Warnings I got T6 off of it and i got a warning and you keep downloading stuff from it Your Internet Provider Will Not Provide You Internet so you can Play a Torrent Game or watch a Torrent Downloaded Movie BTW the Warnings will block your Internet for your devices if you dont quarantine the Warning B.

That's too bad. Only a few ISPs (mainly in the US) do this tho. Only real downside to it. Should use a vpn at all times anyways when torrenting.

You Should have just Stuck with piry it was a WHOLE lot easier and it takes a WHOLE lot quicker then a F-ing Torrent Download Trust me i downloaded BO2 with it and it took 9 Hours When i installed it with Piry it took me a WHOPPING HOUR all i needed to do was deal with the dll files that were missing and it would have taken at least 10 minutes maybe less.

That's an issue on your side, i see most people downloading the torrent with fast speeds. Also like @Maverick_ said, it's impossible for us to afford a cdn that can serve 100+ TB a month of game files, piry only worked via a trick that is no longer possible now. Here are some stats from a seedbox seeding the torrent:

| Thats why this would be Plutonium's Downfall

As you can see in the screenshot above it's anything but a that, 1000-2000 seeders on the torrent and a steadily increasing number of players. It indicates alot but not a "downfall".

Few basic steps to increase your fps:

If you got decent hardware but still have low fps:

• Go to C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Plutonium\bin (you may have to enable "show hidden files and folders" in the windows explorer options to see the "AppData" folder)
• right click plutonium-bootstrapper-win32.exe -> properties -> compatibility -> tick the "disable fullscreen optimizations" box.

If you're using a laptop that has dual gpus (integrated intel hd + dedicated amd/nvidia gpu):

• Open your windows settings -> System -> Display -> Graphics settings (on the bottom)
• Click Browse and navigate to C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Plutonium\bin (you may have to enable "show hidden files and folders" in the windows explorer options to see the "AppData" folder)

Select plutonium-bootstrapper-win32.exe and hit the options button

Select your high performance/dedicated gpu and hit save

In this guide i'll be showing you how to install the DLCs for T6 (you don't need to do this if you downloaded our torrent, it already includes the DLCs):

Requirements:

• QBittorrent
• Basic knowledge of the windows folder structure

Instructions:

• Download this torrent file and open it in qbittorrent
• You will be prompted with an overview of the files the torrent contains, select your t6 game folder as the download location

• Next comes the most important step: Select "don't create subfolder" from the "content layout" dropdown menu (in older versions of qbitorrent this will be a checkbox called "create subfolder" or "keep top-level folder" which you have to untick)

• Hit ok to start the download process, QBittorrent will now check the files in your game folder against the ones in the torrent and download missing or mismatching ones which in this case will be the DLC files.
• As soon as the download reached 100% and the status "seeding" it is complete and can be removed from QBittorrent (right click -> delete).

Congratulations, you now have the DLCs installed.

@FNAFBOYGAMING If it says "sending heartbeat" the server is running... it is a GOOD THING.. is that really so hard to understand?

smaller filesize than what?
and no, bo3 already has dedis and mod support, buy the game.

I suppose you're talking about bo2?
Read the readme before asking questions.
But since i'm a really really nice guy i'm gonna paste the instructions here:

Change your name: click the tilde key ~ to open console then type: name <insert your name here> - You MUST change your name to play on public servers or you will be auto-kicked until you do!

@AlphaJack said in Post removed without notice?:

@Dss0 I explicitely wrote in the first line that Win7 is not supported by the Plutonium staff, exactly because I wouldn't like to give the false impression that you would spend your time giving support to users following that little guide.

yea because ppl reading that totally care about this and totally wouldn't come cry on the forum for help afterwards... you don't know the community then.

Why didn't you simply add a comment stressing (again) that no support for Win7 will be given by the staff, instead of hiding the only guide that shows that the game can run on Win7?

because it's the 90th time someone posted this shit, i cba anymore to reply anymore. i'll just move it to the trash.

Apart from that, I wouldn't consider creating a link from xinput1_3.dll to xinput1_4.dll as dangerous as fucking with system files in other ways, like deleting things.

it doesn't matter how "severe" it is.

• we don't want ppl to use win7
• we don't support outdated software like win7
• we don't want ppl to use "workarounds" either as it only dumps more work on us

no offense to you personally, i'm sure you just wanted to help.

@Frogoow tell whoever hosts the match to follow this guide https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/7/custom-games-with-friends

@hypn6tic post a screenshot of your server console and one of your port forwarding settings.

@Scrapjunker upload the dump file to google drive and post the link here.

@MalaBlasta that google drive link is just a text file with the filepath of the .dmp? Pls upload the .dmp file itself.

@Cured also remove the t6 torrent from your torrent client if it's still running.

@Cured try the solution on the bottom of this post: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/6832/common-launcher-issues-solutions (When starting the launcher it displays this error message: failed to check for updates...).

@xLucass https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/3810/release-mp-diamond-camo-unlocker-10-cac-slots

@Blackman2021 there are instructions on what to do when upnp remains disabled at the bottom of this guide https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/7/custom-games-with-friends

@AlpaKing does it just display nothing? Maybe try rebooting it, there should be an option somewhere in the control panel.
I'm just guessing, i never owned a ovh windows vps.

@AlpaKing alright, glad you got it resolved Ye sure u can reply here.
