Out of my depth

Hi, all:

 

I installed Tequila on a gaming laptop running Windows 10 (despite specifically asking for 7, but that's another story) and downloaded  all the files for the game.

 

Now, every time I try to start the game, as soon as the "Loading" bar disappears, the CoH icon in the taskbar goes, too, and the game fails to load.

 

I have re-validated the files multiple times.

 

I have whitelisted the Tequila files in my anti-virus (Avast).

 

I have turned off my anti-virus, and opened the shields.

 

I have used the alternate manifest line provided above.

 

I have re-validated the files after every one of these.

 

I still cannot get the game  to start, and I'd appreciate any help on the matter.

 

Thanks in advance!

Is the game hanging at the loading bar?

 

See my troubleshooting guide, I am fairly certain it a firewall/anti virus issues.  Also I think windows 10 like to block files and you have to unblock then when trying to run things you have downloading off the web.

 

For Avast check to make sure you have added a GLOBAL exclusion to the whole game folder as well as a whitelist as I believe avast can actually block sites so that might be an issue too.

Thanks, Silk, I will try this.

Also make sure you are starting the game via tequila.exe and not homecoming.exe.
