Same error: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). It downloaded "Direct X runtime Optional Components 5.9mb" from the internet and finished installation. Went into _Redist\DirectX\ folder and ran that installer. Tried running dirt2.exe and got the same error message. I went into the program files folder to the DiRT 2\_Redist\OpanAL\ folder and ran the installer manually. That seems to have worked without problems.ĭouble clicked the desktop shortcut icon for DiRT 2.ĭirt2_ game.exe - Application Error: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Windows then requested admin permission to install rapture 3d. The requested operation requires elevation. Got a "Finalization." window saying it was unable to execute C:\Program Files (x86)\DiRT 2\_Redist\OpenAL\OpenAlwEA X.exe CreateProcess failed code 740. I left the checkboxes as is and continued. The directX option was not selected but the other 2 were selected by default. (or do not change it at all).Īctually there was another step after that to install DirectX, OpanAL, and Rapture 3D. Change it later after you set graphics etc. I do not recommend to change player name ("Player One" by default), when desktop resolution is not equal to game resolution. The last step of installer shared this info: Updated to version 1.1 included DLC: Trust Fund (All Cars), Access All Areas (All Tracks). > ElAmigos release, game is already cracked after installation (crack by Reloaded GFWLiveEmu by Tapek/Catspaw). I searched for the elamigos released version of this iso around the internet and all copies I found claim that it comes pre-cracked with a workaround for the "Games For Windows Live" requirement. It appears to be an iso put together by a person or group named elamigos games. For its time it's by far more fun to drive on than Forza 2, but that's the only thing this game really excels at.In windows 11 just right click the iso file and choose "Mount". Here you get the lot- from massive rigs on rough surfaces in the desert to agile rally cars like the Peugeot 307 being driven on very tight, technical mountain roads in Spain and Japan. In terms of variety overall it beats DiRT 2 and even DiRT 3 in the rallying part, since DiRT 3 tends to deviate a bit more with Gymkhana and in DiRT 2 you have gate crasher (which definitely isn't rallying). Still worth playing even if you've played the other two, as it has better, more varied tracks which are not only more technical but fun, satisfying and intense too. As a starting point though, the foundations are solid and are evidently improved upon in DiRT 2 and evolved in DiRT 3. It's still a good game, just not a great game like DiRT 2 or mind-blowing like DiRT 3. However, compared to DiRT 2 and DiRT 3 this is much more arcade-feeling despite it being more technical. Progression is very simple, and achievements are even more straightforward. It's also good that at the end of each event a leaderboard is shown so you can see how good or badly you did compared to world record and where you rank. But the game does do a fantastic job of talking you through everything so you're not left confused- not that it would ever happen due to the smart GUI. The disparity in graphics between sandy landrush circuits and trucks (which look hideous) compared with the woodland jungle rally courses and cars like the Renault Clio & Subaru Impreza (which look impressive even in 2012) are too large. Inside the car everything look very bland with very little detail at all. Nevertheless, you do get manual transmission, can change controls and interior view. Lighting and environments are good, but texture detail is very much lacking, with just about everything - including shadows - requiring much more anti-aliasing to even look presentable. The technical tuning setups look pointless when the braking, handling and graphics seem so unrealistic and childishly arcade in some aspects. When you jump into the game however, things aren't as great as they first seem. The presentation is slick, but the menus and general navigation is best in this one, and looks very polished and modern. There are 5 difficulty levels which can be chosen separately for each event, with a higher reward for harder difficulty obviously. In race, proper rally co-driver terminology is used (such as 1-6 to indicate angle of turns). Tracks are fun, arcade and yet technical, with plenty of pre-race data such as surface type and even a short briefing avaialble beforehand. You can tune to very fine details all aspects of the vehicle, and must spend money to repair damage, which encourages clean racing. Out of all the DiRT games this is definitely the most technical and least simplified version (in theory).
