EM4 on Win 8.1?

[Xplorer4x4]

Any one had any luck installing EM4 Deluxe on win 8.1 x64? I tried installing it normally and making the installer Win XP compatible(plus Admin rights). No matter what I always seem end up with this message:

 

Logfile:

Maybe some one can send me the icons from:

UI/Game/Icons/Commands/

UI/Game/Icons/Cursor/

 

I have extracted the cab files from the 3 EM4 discs using cabextract in linux. Even then I do not see the missing icons and currsors so this has me curious as well.

 

I also see some extensions for graphics are missing. Not sure what to make of that since I have the latest drivers for my Raedon HD 7700 GPU.

911 FR installed on 8.1 without any issues so I'm not sure why the deluxe would have issues with it =/

That is simply a message to notify you to calibrate voice recognition (or whatever it does) in EM4 Deluxe. It's not an error.

To disable that, open em4deluxe.cfg in your game's folder and change

    <var name="e4_voiceenabled" value="1" />

 to

    <var name="e4_voiceenabled" value="0" />

Clean install or upgraded(win7->win8/8.1)?

Nice catch, thanks!

Clean win8 not an upgrade.

Clean win8 not an upgrade.

 

I can vouch for this as well. Works fine on Windows 8.1 clean install.
