- There is a small error in the installer, so the game won’t autolaunch with (Play) icon. To fix it, simply copy UniUWP_LauncherV3.exe from game root to AppFiles subfolder and try again.
Running the Game and avoiding missing saves
NOTE! This game works ONLY on Windows 10 x64, build 1709 or later. I also recommend you to install Windows Store, Xbox and Xbox Identity applications for crack to work. Also virtualization (Hyper-V Support) must be set off either in OS settings and/or in BIOS. If the setup won’t turn on Developer Mode on your OS, turn it on manually
Windows virtualization (Hyper-V Support) must be set off either in OS settings and/or in BIOS
Developer Mode must be turned on your OS. My installer tries to turn it on automatically, but if fails, make sure to turn it on manually
If you don’t uncheck the option in the installer, the crack will automatically apply after final files verification
If you unckecked the option, you must run the crack manually from the desktop icon
After the crack applied, run the game ONLY via “Halo Wars 2 (Play)” icon on your desktop
If the crack still doesn’t work – something is off with reqirements listed above: Windows version, dev.mode, etc.
Upon the first launch the game will ask you for folder to keep saves in. For workaround solution to work you MUST select “Saves” folder inside game’s folder on the first launch
The solution (actually pretty simple bat-file) backs up your save files from “Saves” folder after each game session and then unpacks them on the next run. Thanks to Rogue for idea!
If after some time the game will tell you that there are no saves, close it, go to your game folder, and copy some “saves.DATE_TIME.backup” to “saves.7z”. Then run the game again, older working saves will be unpacked instead of the damaged ones
Make sure to clean .backup files in game folder, so they wouldn’t eat too much space
