Ok, so as the above mentions, I load the game the splash thing pops up, and then I'm staring at a blank screen.

Fixes tried -

1. changed compatibilty of both WFTO.exe and WFTOGame.exe to windows & (as im running windows 7) - nothing changed ...... (sad face)

2. Checked Output Log, WHAT???? OMG CoherentUI_Native.dll is missing?!?!?!
 Ok mild panic all i need to do is check the integrity of the game files ... check, File missing and will be redownloaded (or something to that effect)
... lets recheck, yep all files vaildated AWSOME!!!
... Splashie thingie thing check, owwww and now this time the computer is thinking (it didn't do that last time)

.. ok false alarm, sad face again, still blank screen.

3. Check step 2 again .....

WHAT THE F%$*&NG S^%T ... CoherentUI_Native.dll missing again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok, so I revarify ... again ..... Oh look its missing a file again suprise, and its reacquiring through .... AGAIN.
recheck ... again, yep files all accounted for ..... lets recheck again just to be safe...... yep still there WOOHOO!!

Launch game .....

Guess what .... WHAT THE F%$*&NG S^%T'IN PI$%NG WA&K!NG STAIN IS THIS BLANK SCREEN AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
( mild lose of hair has started, mainly from me pulling it out, also appolgises for the mild langague, and any spelling errors ... eek)

4. Check step 2 again .... AGAIN.....

Ok lets save alot of read as you may have guessed it the file is missing again, i revarify like TEN TIMES, each one said the file is there, biut guess what ITS NOT!!!!!

However there is a CoherentUIGT_Native.dll just no CoherentUI_Native.dll
I have no idea if that means anything maybe someone can help ..... Please Help!!!!

Oh and i did manually check the file after it said the file had been reacquired and after it said all files validated ... but the file CoherentUI_Native.dll was never actually theredispite the varification said it was.

Also if it  help......

P.S i dont know how to attach files here, so if you want or need War for the Overworld Launcher Log or the output_log just let me know how I do that. Oh and i have no AV software installed other than Adblocker for firefox, as my gaming computer has nothing of worth on it.

We have found the issue in your case Peter. You need to install Windows 7 Service Pack 1. If you do so the game will launch correctly.


Please let us know if that works

Hey Peter,


Please dont use windows 7 compatibility mode.


Can you try and run every installer in the _CommonRedist folder, especially the DirectX installer

Hello, on it! Updating in a few minutes


So I Installed DX and CR for every release, gonna reset now. 


Okay, so the issue still persists. I'll log out of here for a while, Jed's advice may be of help but it'll take some time. I've been behind on windows updates like crazy, after I did all updates for SP1, now there are an additional 125 important ones popping up. I'll check what they do, and if all of them are finished, will retry launching the game. There are NET framework updates related, so it's probably the cause.



Not including optional updates... :D
