Launcher system requirements:

• Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 version 1607 or later
• Graphics card that supports DirectX 11 (on a hardware level)

Common Issues & Solutions:

Issue: Launcher does not respond when trying to start it (or says MSVCP140.dll is missing):
Solution: Install the following runtimes (also mind the system requirements on top of this post!):
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/thank-you/net472-web-installer
https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

Issue: Invalid login details/Account not found
Solution: Usernames are case-sensitive, make sure to enter the exact same username and password you use on the forums.

Issue: Play Button does not appear after selecting game directory, Setup Button remains
Solution: The file path to your game directory can not contain special characters (for example ó, ú, ñ, œ or similar).

Issue: After pressing the Play Button the launcher disappears but the game does not start
Possible Solutions:

• Download this https://drive.google.com/u/0/uc?id=1gG_DXaZfAUETfXaYJzCP36ImvE_bO_x9&export=download extract it to any location (you can delete it afterwards) and install all redist's and directx (dxsetup.exe in the directx folder).
• Follow this guide https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/8546/why-is-my-antivirus-saying-plutonium-is-a-virus-solution
• If you use mcaffee or any other highly intrusive antivirus software uninstall it.

Issue: 0x000007b when attempting to start the launcher or game
Possible Solutions:

• Make sure you meet the system requirements on top of this post and downloaded the game files either through Steam or our installation guide. Third party repacks aren't supported and may cause this error, so delete your game files if they're from a repack and follow our installation guide.
• Download this https://drive.google.com/u/0/uc?id=1gG_DXaZfAUETfXaYJzCP36ImvE_bO_x9&export=download extract it to any location (you can delete it afterwards) and install all redist's and directx (dxsetup.exe in the directx folder).
• If it still doesn't work download this tool and use it to install all runtimes: https://www.computerbase.de/downloads/systemtools/all-in-one-runtimes/
• If you use reshade remove it, reshade is no longer supported by plutonium and causes this error.

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.

Had these laying around on my hdd for a while so why not release them?

@VonF02 MSVP140.dll is a DLL from Microsoft you're missing, it is essential to play the client.

https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe
https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

Please install BOTH. You need the x86 variant for x86 applications (the game) and the x64 variant for x64 applications (the launcher). Links were obtained from https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads

@Lionhearted1928 he's not being a dick, there is no such command. Also good advice on the usage of injectors in online mode. You would need a mod to give yourself points and we don't distribute mods, they are community made (check bo2 mod release section on the forum, maybe such thing already exists).

@Baoo752 his error message is quite generic so how do you know it's the same? anyways create your own topic and do what i told op above.

@Flashoutfrm989 this could be related, from "FAQ & Common issues Plutonium T6":

Error: UI ERROR 5XXXX (eg 58339)
Fix: Your stats file is corrupted, either use resetStats or delete your dw folder inside %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\demonware\18397. ALL PROGRESS WILL BE LOST!

@CartelRecords it's possible that you can't find servers that are running on your lan as your router doesn't support wan loopback. Just join manually via your ip. Ask your friends if they can see your servers in the list.

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

@tribalwolfe1

@Keegsy "shadow" is in iw_04.iwd, is that file present in your installation?

@turkiioii00 2 questions for you:

• are you running pluto in a virtual machine?
• are you using a 32 bit installation of windows?

@Iraqlobster40 well.. how far do you live apart? it's also possible he just has a bad connection or bad routing to you.

try clearing your browser cache. you can also go to "see all notifications", that should still work.

@afrogangster1 you follow each other on the forum, then you can invite or join each other via the built in friends system of bo2 (not the f10 menu).
