Lol, thanks submarinex1, unfortunately I don't play this type of game, just happy that I could help out.

In all honesty, it didn't take too long to figure out the issue, hopefully the devs catch on and make an official update (however, from what I have read, official support has been suspended/terminated until the next game/add-on release).

Hopefully with a fix on the table the devs will be able to sneak a micro patch past the been counters for Windows 8 compatability

Hi Skoshi Tiger, as I have stated in the readme, "CloDer.dll" should be unloaded from memory once the game starts (how Steam will see this is unknown to me, it could detect it as an exploit).
You would have to speak to one of the developers to verify that the game is in fact protected with VAC (or another online protection scheme), if it isn't you (your brother, everyone) should be safe to play online.
Until you get clarification on the above issue I would suggest you don't play online (unless someone goes Kamikaze and tries it out online).

Thankyou for your effort sir ~S~

I only play online, so I'd love further info on this

Typical modesty from him - it took longer to copy my game file onto his mobile 'phone during a flying visit than it took him to produce a fix.

And still no reply from developers. Can one of admins forward this thread to 1C?

[submarinex1]

now answer has been found it shouldn't be hard for devs to issue proper fix to their game so vac wouldn't even be issue(if it is) maybe we should get valve to contact sky I am sure there's other things he could fix

Whatfor? Development for CloD has stopped for good.

Hate to bring sad news, but it does not work for me. Steam tries to install VC redist package and then nothing. I've copied the files to the COD directory and I've ran CloDer both in normal and admin mode. I've verified files through steam and reapplied the patch, but nothing.
Sadface.

Make sure you launch the game by selecting the new exe file "CloDer".

Installing CloD has a separate issue - this patch is a 'loader' to provide a work-around of a security issue when trying to run the game in Win8. I didn't re-install CloD when moving to Win8 as it is on a second drive. Try mazex's fix here: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...t=30096&page=7

Did that. Get the spinning circle for a second and then nothing. Can it be because I have Steam on another partition and not in program(x86)?

Tried that as well, Steam now skips the "install part" but get the same error as above.

Cheers

EDIT: And I've installed the DirX from the redist folder.
