Update:
I just dug through my folders and launched the game manually from Steam\SteamApps\common\the walking dead\WalkingDead101.exe, and it launched okay. After that I closed it out and was able to launch it through steam again.
i see for 3 seconds at steam that im in the game and then it comes back that iam online :mad::mad: totally pissed about that, cause i also payed for that....
So I download Walking Dead episode 1 setup for Windows operating systems from TellTale's own website and run it. My first hurdle is at the Checking DirectX screen. If I click the check DirectX option, I get an error message halfway through the installation 'an internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log and DirectX.log in your Windows folder to determine problem.' This message does not come up if I click don't check, but the problems I'm about to mention happen either way.
So now the Walking Dead shortcut appears on my desktop. I click that and the game loads, taking me to a 'click to continue screen'. When I click, it attempts to take me to the main menu but has a seizure instead. The background of the click to continue screen mostly stays in place, though in the centre is a stuttering window peeking at the main menu. I can't see or select any menu options. If I click enter it tells me the account I'm using isn't authorized to run this game.
Update: Tried some of the suggestions in the FAQ like running compatability mode (no dice), and I think I've narrowed it down a bit. I have Catalyst Control Center and tried to set anti-aliasing to "Application Controlled" but I had trouble finding it. Went to the Gaming Tab - 3D Application Settings, and I assume what I'm looking for is SMOOTHVISION HD:Anti-Aliasing. Unfortunatly the box under 'use application settings' is already ticked. This is the first TellTale game I've had trouble running.
The issue could well have something to do with your DirectX not being updated successfully. You can try updating it manually via the Microsoft website.
Followed the link and the setup says my DirectX doesn't need updating because it's 'newer or equivalent.'
What the hell?
