Hi,
I've downloaded the W4 Mayhem Online Demo and I tried to play in my computer and it doesn't work!!
It loads until the screen with a machinegun and the phrase "Use the Weapon Factory to Create a Perfect bazooka, grenade or Strike weapon", some sound plays and the game closes and return to windows...
The XOM.log file contains:

And my computer config is:

GeForce FX6600 with driver nvidia Forceware 93.71
SoundBlaster Live! 24bits
Windows XP Prof

Previously I couldn't load the first game screen (due to some configs in Opengl ), but I fixed with some parameters in my videocard's Opengl...

Does anyone have an idea what's wrong?
Thank you forwardly...

For some reason, it seems to be looking for a file only in the beta. Try reinstalling

Thank you Muzer for your suggestion... I reinstall it and the very same error occured...

Buy the game, no need to play the demo, it's great, so go get the full version! :p

Moreover you can tweak the weapons, weeeeee....

(I'm out)

Yeah, it's a great idea, but what guarantees me that the full version will work and will not show the same "loading problem" that accurred in Demo version ?
I'd like to have a reply of an game expert (maybe the developer...) about the reason of the problem and the sollution for it....
anyway...thank you so far....

Do you have a "Version.tga" file in you Worms 4 Mayhem folder ? Seems that this file is missing. :-/

That file was in the beta demo, when it had the version image and stuck it in the corner.

Trust me, I was a tester.

Ok, but I dowloaded the installation file 5 days ago from the team17 website...
I also tested with the single player version and the same problem occurs...

maybe it's different then.

Try updating your graphics and sound drivers

Also, what is your DirectX version? (Start-run-dxdiag-OK)
