The Saboteur Map Bug Patch
I recently installed The Saboteur from Origin, and I'm having an issue with the game. The game installs and loads fine, but once I get past the 'gamma settings' thing that pops up at the beginning of every session, the screen ends up going black. I can see a few flashes of light that seem to be illuminating the Eiffel Tower and other objects, and there is a one-pixel wide diagonal line across the screen that seems to have the correct colors. When I start a game, the game itself plays fine, the overlays, maps, and menus all work fine, and the music sounds great, but this black overlay stays on the screen, meaning that I can't really see anything.
It might've been fixed in the patch, I can't really confirm. The Saboteur fucks up entirely when I try to play with my Xbox 360 gamepad. It says it's compatible on the box! Symptoms: The camera spins around while shooting/driving with the 360 gamepad. Solution: Before starting the game, unplug your 360 controller.
It makes the game unplayable. I know others have reported this issue as well, but I've never found a solution.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I've already installed the beta patch and tried every compatibility mode, but nothing works. Revolun nmina taxus learning download. I'm on an Intel Core i3 laptop with Intel HD Graphics (4GB of RAM); my graphics card is below the minimum requirements, but the game itself seems to run fine under that black overlay, and others have been able to run the game with Intel cards. Wrote: I just bought The Saboteur off of Gamefly. I activated my key in Origin, and downloaded the game.
The launcher pops up, but when I click 'Play', my PC acts liek the game is starting, but nothing happens. My first guess is an issue with Windows 8, but I've tried it in Compatibility mode for both Windows 7 and Vista. Any help would be appreciated.
@ moocowsrevenge: I was able to run it after all. But the solution is not pretty: 1. You can start the game from Origin to set the options, but do not start the game from there. It doesn't work. Once you have set the game options (resolution, graphics details, etc.), close the options.
3. R ight-click the executable 'Saboteur.exe' in the game folder, and choose 'Troubleshoot compatibility'. Choose the 2nd option 'Troubleshoot program' 5. Select the options 'The program requires additional permissions' and 'The program worked in earlier versions of Windows but won't install or run now'. Select 'Windows 7' 7.
If it works, save this. Now you should be able to run the game by just double-clicking the executable. Otherwise, I cannot help you. You can create a shortcut to the game on your desktop. But you cannot add the game manually in Origin. That won't work. Hope this helps.
I'm having a problem with the ingame full map. When Im trying to move the map - * is happening. The backgroung of the map is moving right, but upper layer of the map with region borders and icons is moving to the opposing direction. When Im trying to zoom in or zoom it out - the background is zooming right, but the upper layer - is not scaled properly. So it is nearly impossible to understand, where are you and where are mission objectives. Wanted to contact EA support, but the last step of support sended me here.
