I never had an account in Rockstar Social Club neither did the game suggest me to have one. But after this text went, I got a pop up message saying that registration to Rockstar Social Club has failed. It too went on to come on my screen for next few minutes. Afterwards, another text came which said that it was attempting to connect the game to Rockstar Games Social Club. This screen was displayed for around four to five minutes. At the bottom of the screen was written Initialization in small font. After clicking on the execution file of the game, a black screen with Max Payne 3 written in big came on my screen. I just finished installing Max Payne 3 in my computer and I started to play it. I don't see an option not to run it, even for just single player mode.Getting long initializing and stuck in Max Payne 3 I'll try the clientregistry thing and see if it helps.Īs far as Social Club goes, I think it's mandatory, alas, just like Games for Windows and other such BS. ![]() I edited my OP with a couple more concerns, but to address your points: 1) Really, the UAC thing is normal every time now? Is that a new thing? Dishonored was the first game that acted like it had to do a first-time setup every time it ran. But try deleting the clientregistry blob first and see if that helps.Īs for the Rockstar Social Club thing, I've never seen that happen before, but IIRC you don't have to be signed into that service to play the game so I'd just skip it. Personally I've never had a game require me to verify the cache every time I've played it, so I'm not sure what that's about. Go into your Steam directory and find the clientregistry.blob, and delete it. *Dishonored was also giving me the UAC prompt every time behavior, but I tracked that down to it wanting to install an older version of PhysX than was installed with my latest nVidia drivers.įor the second, before you redownload the entire game, do this: I wonder if I screwed myself somehow? Even a "downloaded from Amazon" version would have required Steam, right? The weird part is that the base game on my Amazon account page is listed as online (Steam) code only, but the DLC shows it has a 35 GB download option. Maybe I should reinstall the game (redownloading 30-some GB is painful, but what the hell) with the AV turned off? or switch to MSE or something? Re-install Steam?* BTW running Steam or the game as Administrator doesn't seem to make a difference.Īlso, if it makes a difference, I picked the game up during the Thanksgiving weekend from Amazon-I picked the "online code" deal with the DLC for 20 bucks. ![]() I don't know if this makes a difference, but I use avast! antivirus free version. If I don't do the check, when I run the game the next time it usually crashes during a cutscene, or when I quit the game.ģ) Almost every time I run the game, Rockstar Social Club asks me to recover the activation-I'll get a screen that prompts me with something called a "request code" and I just hit the back button and my game key is pre-filled in, so I hit activate and it says "Thank you for activating your game" as if it were the first time. ![]() ![]() Hi all, maybe someone has experienced the following issues with the otherwise excellent Max Payne 3, and can shed some light on what I should do.ġ) Every time I run the game, I get the UAC prompt telling me that steamservice.exe wants to make changes to my computer (I'm running Win 7 Ultimate, 64 bit).Ģ) Every time I run the game, I have to "verify integrity of game cache" and it always finds a file that failed the integrity check.
