Mafia III - Definitive Edition
Every time I am playing and try to use Plitch, the game crashes back to my desktop.  I have Plitch started on my PC, then I connect using the app on my phone.  It's all good at that point, but the moment I hit Prepare, the game will freeze for a fast second and then boom, it's gone and I'm back to my desktop.

Has this happened to anyone else ?  Any ideas to stop this is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Did you activate the prepare AFTER loading into your savegame?
WHich antivirus software are you using?
Do you own a legit copy of the game via steam?

I bought the game as part of the Definitive Edition through Epic Games.  I'm using Norton, and yeah, I activate Prepare after the game is running.

I'm sorry but we currently have no version for the epic games store.
It's on the port-list.

You can try to add the entire plitch folder as an exception in norton... maybe this changes something

Dang it, that explains it though.  Does it being on the port-list mean that making the Epic bought version compatible with Plitch ?  I'm curious what the time line would be (2021, 2022, next week lol, etc).

Love Plitch, life is hard enough without great games being too hard to enjoy too.

Yes, the list is for games that we already have but want to offer on other platforms as well.
I'm sorry but I can't give you any ETA on how long it will take :/
Could be a week... could be a month... idk :x

I'm just glad it's on the list.  Not sure how to tell if it was ported or not but it's easy enough to check it in-game periodically to see if it starts working.  Thanks again for the info and everything you guys do.
