Mod Loader Will Not Launch SA2 #192

Open DrakkenWolfgang opened 3 weeks ago

DrakkenWolfgang commented 3 weeks ago

Describe the bug When attempting to play SA2 via the Mod Manager, clicking "Save & Play" does not launch SA2. Mod Manager just reloads mods, patches, codes.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open Mod Manager
  2. Select "Sonic Adventure 2" as game
  3. Apply any codes, patches, graphical changes, etc
  4. Click "Save & Play

Expected behavior Mod Manager should launch SA2 when clicking "Save & Play."

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context While clicking "Save & Play" does not launch game (or state that anything is wrong or has crashed), manually running sonic2app.exe after clicking "Save & Play" with whatever Mod Manager changes (code enable/ disable, patch enable/ disable, graphical changes) seem to take effect. Manager itself just seems unable to launch the game itself. Have tried uninstalling both Manager & SA2, reinstalling both - same thing. Checked to make sure Mod Manager has correct path to game - it does. Not sure what may be causing this behavior.

Can you try to re set the game location in the Manager Config tab manually to see if the issue persist? Have you also tried to run the Manager as admin just in case?

Unintentionally marked as resolved/ closed. Have tried those things as well, issue still persists

Yeah... still not launching SA2. I've tried completely removing mod manager & both SADX & SA2, reinstall only SA2, reinstall Mod Manager - game still won't launch from Mod Manager.

I have even gone as far as a clean install of Windows, then install SA2, then install Mod manager- still won't launch.

On my end, I think I've narrowed down possible cause. I think there is some bug in Mod Manager code that attempts to install manager correctly, yet fails to do correctly & it is only with SA2. SADX installs mod manager correctly for that game, but there is some underlying issue with the Manager install for SA2.
