Scarlet Blade connection issues

[Herrmorgard]

Hello,

I wanted to try Scarlet Blade (to see if the game worked on my PC), but I couldn't get it to work, I did everything in the previous threads:
- (change SB.exe and SBLauncher.exe compatibility to Windows XP (service pack 3))
- put both into administrator execution
- add the "Vendetta gaming network" and "Vendetta Scarlet Blade" folder to the exceptions of my anti-virus (bitdefender) as well as the launchers on the firewall whitelist
- I even installed the launch library recommended in the common issues thread.

But nothing to do, I connect, I press the button, the launcher disappears and nothing, no game behind. I just want to point out that I use a VPN.

That usually means something in the background is interfering with SB, such as another third party program or driver.

Hello, thank you for the response. Would you know how to fix it?
Because on the other hand, I have no trouble running another similar game (Turtle WOW, a private server for WOW classic) on this same computer.
Otherwise I'll try again later.

Its hard to say specifically, as it could be anything on your pc that could be blocking it. Unfortunately the game is quite finicky. Since the game is quite old, running it on newer machines isn't always as straight forward as it could be.

 

Though you set compatibility as Windows XP, set it to windows 7. You could also try using a different node on your vpn, or doing an ipconfig release/renew as well.

Yes I saw that. The thing is, I have a "scarlet blade" showing up in my task manager, but nothing showing up on the screen. I also tried disabling modules for full screen. I also changed the compatibility of both .ex for Windows 7.

Afterwards, are there geographical areas where the game does not work?
