Bug report: FSD 3 will not launch games from icon

Recommended Posts

When I try to launch any game from the Xbox 360 icon, it boots back to nxe with an error message saying the game could not be started and to try redownloading it. But when I launch the game's xex from the file browser, it works just fine. I didn't see this issue elsewhere so what is causing this error?

I thought I tried that, but I may have just used a different TU. When I load the xex and connect to Link, it says that TU6 is active or at least that's the room I'm in.

I will try that, thanks.

Nope, disabling all TUs didn't work. It still says,"Game Error The game couldn't start. Try downloading the game again." It won't even load games with no TU downloaded unless I do it from the file browser. Xexmenu launches all the games perfectly so I know it's this latest build of FSD 3 that is the problem.

Is it a Game on Demand format?

No, the funny thing is that when I launch the few games I have as GODs, they worked. Also, if I put the Gears of War 3 disc in and activate TU6, it works and shows that TU6 is active so I can connect and do MP on Link. It's just the games extracted into their folders give the launch error. That includes games with and without a modded xex file (most are untouched). Most of the games have been extracted using FSD 2.2 or Exiso gui from the discs. After I figured out how to get into system link with GoW 3 (you need to hit the back button on the controller, btw) I could find a few people hosting rooms and it worked fine until the host gave up and quit. LOL, but that was when I put the original disc in the drive.

I haven't tried Arcade games with FSD 3 yet, but they aren't a priority because I use FSD 3 for Link and MP. Like I said before, they've worked for a long time with FSD 2.2 and other launchers. Why would they stop launching all of a sudden?

Yes, they were disabled by default. Same problem persists.

I also can launch the games from Xexmenu 1.1 and the System Link appears in the mini menu most of the time and I can play it on Link. Any other ideas what is causing this problem?
