Just in case anyone else ever reads this, I'll keep responding to myself as I discover solutions. exe, switched the other compatibility mode settings around a bit, and set it to run as administrator but none of these change it. Click OK to close the application." I've played around with the game settings a bit, enabled compatibility mode for Windows 95, XP, Vista, 7 and 8 on the. The mission launchers work, but when I try to actually run Dune2000.exe it gives me an error stating "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022). I'm not entirely sure since I can't watch them the game won't start now. There may be an issue with the video files, as they're all displaying a size of 0. Anyway, that's been cleared up and the files are in D:\Program Files (x86)\ now. The earlier problem was due to my virus scanner, as I thought, though it had "Auto-Sandboxed" the files rather than preventing installation entirely. The installer seems to have worked this time, at least the files are in the directory I intended them to be. Seems I can't delete my last post, so I'll have to respond to myself.
#DUNE 2000 GRUNTMODS HOW TO#
QED.Īnyone have any suggestions on how to get it working, or if nothing else does anyone know the registry key that the installer program uses so I can erase it and experiment further myself? Of course, if it had I might not have needed to ask the question in the first place.
#DUNE 2000 GRUNTMODS INSTALL#
My guess is that there's a registry key I need to erase to install the game again, which would be automatically erased in the uninstall process had the uninstall file been created. It's possible my virus scanner killed the installation process but didn't pop-up any notifications, I guess I haven't been able to try it again with the virus scanner disabled, since the installer thinks the game is already installed.
I've tried to run the installer again and it tells me that the game's already installed and to please uninstall it and relaunch the installer. I've made hidden & system files visible and still I can't find the game folders or files. The directory I chose for installation doesn't exist on my computer, as far as I can tell. There are no start menu programs, nor shortcuts on the Desktop. Not only will the game not start, none of the files seem to have actually been installed on my computer. I chose not to launch the game immediately and went to take care of something else, then a few hours later got back to it and tried to start things up. No problems so far, nor did I get any reports of problems throughout the unpacking process.
I chose to install it on drive D rather than drive C, since drive C is my SSD and most of my software is on D.
#DUNE 2000 GRUNTMODS FULL#
I'm concerned that it might start calling me Dave soon.Īnyway, I downloaded the full GruntMods 1.6.2.2 edition from (download 939) and opened the installer. I'd love to be able to play it, but unfortunately my computer is too smart for me and can't let me do that. I haven't actually played Dune 2000 before, but enjoyed Dune 2 a lot in its day, and this caught my eye on an abandonware site. First off, thanks in advance for any help you can give and for all the work that has clearly been put in updating and maintaining this game.
