just downloaded soulstorm off of steam, downloaded just find and whatnot... however, during the installation a directx installation came up, which i accepted and all. However, it failed due to some "cryptographic services" error... but still allowed me to continue (which i did, and after the C++ redistributable thing installed, it all went fine).
Here start the real problems though. Half the sounds within the game itself (not movies it seems) seem to be replaced by beeps. On the loading screen, i hear the music in the background just fine, but if i am to move my mouse around, over some buttons or whatnot, the beep is there... or in the campaign window, hovering above the pictures of each commander during the race selection, it repeatedly beeps.
on the side of graphical problems... i went into the army painter to check things, and found that the Sisters, the dark eldar, the necrons (haven't checked the rest) all show me a big pink cube with black text on it:
BAD MODEL
CHECK THE LOG!
When i tried a skirmish using the sisters of battle.. all i saw were two of those cubes.. no buildings, nothing (cubes were selectable though).
So, what can i do here? Uninstal/reinstall, or what? (found out cryptographic services are part of windows so i'm going to tinker somewhat with that...)
But otherwise...Help :( :Hail:
oh, to add to this: bought Dawn of war: platinum off of steam and they have worked fine (DOW, winter assault, dark crusade.. though there's still a resource bug in winter assault for Disorder mission 4... orcs starting with 100 resources = not good :( )
