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 zip file and extract it to any location (you can delete it afterward) and install all four files and DirectX (DXSETUP.exe in the DirectX folder).
• If that doesn't fix your problem, try reading our Antivirus thread.

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

• Make sure you meet the system requirements on top of this post.
• Download this zip file and extract it to any location (you can delete it afterward) and install all four files and DirectX (DXSETUP.exe in the DirectX folder).
• If it still doesn't work, you can try our Redist Installer or ComputerBase's All in One Runetime Installer.

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Solution: This error occurs when you are trying to launch an outdated version of Plutonium.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:

Error: Your game is outdated (rXXXX against (rXXXX)

Solution: This is most likely caused due to you pinning the wrong part of the launcher to the task bar, or by using an old version of the launcher.

• Unpin Plutonium from your task bar.
• Delete your launcher and re-download.
• Make sure to pin that version before even opening it.

@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.

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

@Haisa richtig gute texturen + tutorial!

You can export straight to dds from photoshop using the intel texture works plugin btw so you can skip the paint.net conversion step.

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

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.

@VolkzOG you don't get it do you? We told you multiple times not to break the rules and even temporarily banned you for it. And what do you do after your ban expires? Break the rules again. No longer dealing with this.

@tommandreww covered here https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/6832/common-launcher-issues-solutions

@thecumman we need more info, what happens after clicking play? Any error messages? If yes, post a screenshot of them.

@Today you can't.

@javibox this is not a plutonium error but caused by iw4madmin (server administration software), the only thing you can do is contact whoever owns that server.
Here's a post with many popular clans or communities that host pluto servers: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/14/server-advertising-promotion-and-introduction-thread

@Dario_KD because you need to open port 4977 for udp traffic, not tcp.

@Dario_KD post a screenshot of your port forwarding settings.

@Valky-Luvs-U most likely antivirus related: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/8546/why-is-my-antivirus-saying-plutonium-is-a-virus-solution

@Roachhh the post you linked also contains a solution tho. This simply means you are missing bo2 game files.

@poop-dealer possibly your antivirus, try this: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/8546/why-is-my-antivirus-saying-plutonium-is-a-virus-solution

@Dario_KD the server will run on port 4977 as the game already uses 4976. Make sure 4977 is forwarded in your router.
