So I tried starting the game via Plitch and the game starts as normal but Plitch doesn't seem to detect the game on startup for (1.13, 32 BIT). I've tried other version like (2024-03-14, 1.12, 32 bit) and that works but it immediately breaks the game when I use any of the commander abilities during the campaign for the Russians. Is there a fix for this?

Hey DesertW!tch Rani,

thank you for reporting the issue. Do you play the game via Steam or the EA App and did you ensure to select the correct version (Steam/ EA App) in PLITCH?

Also, please try to launch PLITCH and the platform (Steam/ EA App) as administrator. To do this, right-click the desktop icons and select "run as administrator". Then launch the game via the PLAY button in PLITCH and activate the Prepare after fully loading your campaign save file.

Hello.


Sorry for the late reply. I did launch PLITCH as admin and I used the EA version of the trainer to play the game and it worked with no problems. For the steam version the 1.13, 32 BIT did not work, but the earlier versions did but they immediately crashed the game so I had to force quit in order to close it. Other than that the trainer/cheats worked well for the EA version at least.

Thank you for the reply. I'm glad the cheats work fine in the latest EA version. Please always use the latest version, which is the top option in the drop-down menu, as we cannot guarantee that the cheats will work in older versions.


Happy Gaming! 🥳
