roddam Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Hi, I've had FM2010 installed via Steam for ages. Then suddenly last night when I go to launch Steam the following error message appears: 'Fatal Error: Failed to load platform modules' Can anyone help? I want to play my Monaco save.

Dekker2 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=766313&page=2 Renaming the clientregistry.blob file in the steam directory seems to solve things. It worked for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddam Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 Hi, neither works! I've tried the 'regedit' way and the language file is already set to english. I've tried the ClientRegistry.blob fix but I can't find this file. Where should it be located? I've tried the search on it and nothing comes up. I've also read that deleting or renaming 'steam.dlls' fixes this problem but still can't find the file. Please help? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielCalter Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Hi, I've had FM2010 installed via Steam for ages. Then suddenly last night when I go to launch Steam the following error message appears:'Fatal Error: Failed to load platform modules'. Strangely I have just had the same error for the first time. I followed the help in this thread: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=156429&highlight=steam+error this seems to have rectified the problem and the game appears to have loaded ok. I followed the following steps from said thread: Step one Verify Game cacheHow to : -Load Steam -From the My Games tab, right-click on FM2010 and select Properties from the menu. -Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button. -Steam will verify the game cache files (GCF's) - this process may take several minutes. -Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit. Step Two : Restart Steam Step Tree Verify Game Cache again it should download the damaged files For some reason the patch is damaging the game files ,creating errors SI needs to look at this. Hope this helps. FYI the help relates to patch 10.2 but seems to have worked nonetheless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddam Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 At last, I've found the ClienRegistry.blob file and renamed it. Problem fixed, it's up and running again. Thanks for all help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
