VP4 won't load with firewall running.
Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:34 pm
OK. Finally got my copy of VP4.
I understand its a new release and their will be the inevitable teething problems for the different systems. Im having no problems with the game on my system (see below) ...except that the intro screen doesn't show up..just a white blank screen with just audio playing.. its no biggie tho... however. I do have a problem starting the game when my firewall is running which to me is a bit weird. I get the following error message:
So I have to come offline and disable the firewall to bee able to play. the firewall I use is "online armour-free version" Is this a known issue? Like I say, I have no problem with the game once the firewall is disabled..infact, I've already been beaten by a cat name boots. So...is this known and is there a fix for it that I can do on my own, or will this be fixed in a future update? For me its only a minor niggle but I guess its worth posting.
my system:
Acer Aspire 5750 Laptop
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2350M CPU @ 2.30GHz
4GB Ram
64bit OS
blah blah blah
