Fence Of Doom glitch Very Happy



It once happened something like that to me too. I was near the water and I was trying to climb down some stairs to kill some guys with the car, but I got stuck in a fence and got thrown up into the sky like crazy. Then, I was respawned on the ground without the car and after a few seconds it respawned me again benath a boat and I couldn't move. I had to reload. Laughing

Grand Theft Auto IV had something like that, but it was a swingset.

do you maybe have a firewall that is blocking buddha.dll from skidrow crack?

Nope.
Now i got a new issue, i start the game and my monitor goes black with the only message being "Signal out of range", i know this is a resolution issue, so is there some command for windowed mode, or where is the game cfg file that i can edit Confused.
I tried "-windowed" but it was not working :>

Try creating a steam_appid.txt file in the game folder with the number 202170 in it and see if that works, for the screen problem I don't think there is a way to set resolution manually.

EDIT: Oh right .\data\displaysettings.xml Smile
(Just edit it with any text editor.)

EDIT: My own file.
http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/38112426/file.html
(As a example or as a replacement if you don't have that file since the game didn't start properly, might need to alter resolution manually first.)

Thanks JB, i tried your cfg file, but it is the same effect.When i switch to fullscreen it just turns black and it says "Signal out of range".
Could that be from the Skidrow rls, and should i download the 3DM one ?
Edit : I clicked alt + enter two times, and now i'm playing on fullscreen Mind Is Full Of Fuck

Now I finished it, took 8 days and I got a total playtime of 38 hours.
I really got everything 100%,all jobs done, all collectibles, all assets even all safehouse upgrades and all random encounters. Theres absolutely nothing left to do.

I installed the High Roller Pack DLC after all because I never got those clothes and car in-game, must be a bug because many legit buyers have the same problem.

I grace this game with a very very close 85%, I wanted to give it 84 first but for the good atmosphere and graphics it gets a bonus point. The two main problems this game has are:
- The story is just *good* The reviewer from Gamestar put it right: "Sleeping Dogs is like a John Woo, with an average script and great action fun, while GTA is more like a Scorsese."
It was definitely missing that special something.
- The other beef I have with this game is the general mission structure. There is absolutely no player initiative or thinking needed, basically you are just ordered from waypoint to waypoint and follow one instruction after another like a stupid monkey. Thats what happens when you apply too much polish, Assassins Creed has a similar problem.

No the car and clothing for that DLC are more like a variant of existing content, they don't exist in-game as is. Smile

They do exist, you get the High Roller outfit when you visit the mahjong poker thing during the police case. You can also buy the same vehicle you get from HR pack in a shop.

Yeah, you get the suit, but only during that one case and you cant keep it.
I also bought all vehicles before installing the DLC and after installing I had one additional car in the garage.
It might be a special version of a car I already own but it gets treated as a seperate item and thats what counts.

yeah, thats why I said it might be a bug, because I never got the outfit after that mission. only after I installed the DLC it appeared and the outfit is now at the very bottom of my preset outfits list

EDIT: nevermind, found the dlc pack/fix on TPX Smile

thanks for the tip - in that case I'll install the original skidrow release, copy over the dlc pack (that has all dlc's, including the one you mentioned), and then copy over the crackfix last. Should be good to go then, it sounds like.

Maybe MMORPGs and Casual Browser Games, but Video Game Consoles are officially banned in China since 2000

i finally found out what caused the random crashes for me.
i had set that fps cap in nvidia inspector to 58fps (it's said to reduce input lag and also fixes tearing)
well somehow this ONE game doesn't like it.
switched it off, now everythings fine. just in case someone has the same problem... Smile

its not windows 8's fault, game runs without a hitch and without the need for a compatibility mode if you play legit or with 3DM's crack.

with skidrows crack youve gotta disable windows defender ( or any anti-virus ), or at least add the exception, block the crack with the firewall and set the compatibility mode to windows 98/me

its not microsofts fault skidrow sucks.
