So do what I did:Ģ) go to the C drive (on my Windows 10 PC the default name is "OS (C:)"Ĥ) type "PhysXLoader.dll" and wait while it searches for the file. What am I meant to actually do in order to get the game to work?įirst things first: do you have an nVidia graphics card? If so, then like me, you probably already have the file you need on your computer. Originally posted by Penally1:I'm really not smart when it comes to computers and I also don't really understand all of this Command Prompt stuff. PS: I actually had two DLLs PhysXLoader.dll and PhysXLoader64.dll.

And if you do, copy it (don't move it!) to avoid potentially messing with other programs that expect it in the default location.

Just check if you already have the named DLL file before installing the PhysX package. So anyone who's struggling with this, even if you have an nVidia card, go ahead and try this fix. It has to exist in the game's Binaries folder, apparently. It's not enough for the DLL to exist on your system, it would seem.

I didn't need to install the PhysX drviers since I did indeed already have them installed, but copying the "PhysXLoader.dll" file from the default install location and pasting it into the Binaries folder inside the Alpha Protocol directory did allow the game to launch properly (when launched from Binaries\APgame.exe, as noted by OP.) Next logical step is to install PhysX was having this problem myself just now (despite the game working fine the last time I had it installed on this same PC.) I have an nVidia GPU and am running the most current version of Windows 10, yet it still didn't work. With Dependency Walker it seems that the missing DLL is PHYSXLOADER.DLL. I checked the dump with Visual Studio, and it seems it doesn't find some specific DLL it needs. No information in the log file, but the dump files were there. However, there was no change - the game still doesn't start.ĮDIT4: Checked the logs of Alpha Protocol. I updated with the 2.1.0.0 version from this thread:

Hmm, driver update might help as well if there are new drivers.ĮDIT2: Updated drivers to 13.9, still not starting after splash.ĮDIT3: On another forum there was talk of OpenA元2.dll preventing the game to start and to update it. Anyone have any ideas? (Maybe I'll try reinstalling Alpha Protocol)ĮDIT: Oh yeah, my graphics card is AMD Radeon HD 6570 w/ 4GB and Catalyst 13.4 drivers. I checked the integrity of local files, but it didn't do any good (and it said everything is in working order). I have the latest Steam version of Alpha Protocol.

I have the current Steam Beta client (Sep 27 2013), Windows 7 圆4 Pro, 6GB RAM, AMD Athlon II X4 645 and should have plenty of HDD space. It just closes the splash window and nothing happens. Well, okay, the splash opens up (where you can select Play and so on) but the game doesn't start when I select Play.

But now that I wanted to start playing again, it doesn't start AT ALL. Hay guise! Alpha Protocol used to work just fine when I first played it (months ago? years ago?) in Steam. Now it starts! I don't know if it works as it should, but at least I can now get to the main menu.ĮDIT6: It still doesn't start from the Launcher, but at least it now starts when trying to run it manually by using Binaries/APGame.exe So I installed PhysX from here:Īfter installing, I went to Program Files (or Program Files (x86) if on 圆4)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common and copied the PhysXLoader.dll to the game's Binaries folder. In my case it seemed that there was PhysXLoader.dll missing. Msiexec /a PhysX-SystemSoftware.msi /qb TARGETDIR=%cd%\PhysXĪnd then you can just copy the "PhysX\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common\PhysXLoader.dll" to the game's Binaries folder.
