The Lost Planet Extreme Condition trial is no longer available via Steam.
It seems the Steam demo stopped working unexpectedly once, with a "no license" message appearing. When you open the executable, it functions properly. Additionally, the "Lost Planet Extreme Condition DX10 Trial" is no longer launching and displays strange errors. What’s happening? It might be related to licensing issues or corrupted files. You might want to check your installation or reinstall the game.
The game was launched in 2007... However, I just verified that the demo isn't available anymore—it seems odd, but it still functions when I click the executable. The DX10 demo (the one I prefer) is what I actually want to play since it's superior to the dx9 version.
It appears the publisher has taken it off Steam, which means the platform blocks access as planned. Since the installer doesn’t support Steam’s DRM, you should still be able to run it locally if you own it. This seems like a glitch in the game itself—there was an attempt to generate a texture that failed due to an incorrect argument in CreateTexture2D. It could stem from compatibility issues with newer drivers or even a bug in the driver or DX10 that has now been resolved.
They weren't making a joke about the "extreme condition," right? Seems like I need to pay the full price for the complete game, even though it's the lower version. -.- It did function before, on my 3070, probably due to some issues with the 5070 drivers... I should test it on my 4070m laptop.
I'd wait for a sale, goes down to 3-4$ every month: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/lost-pla...tion/info/
It doesn't seem to be Windows, matching the same setup before the demos stopped working. It might be BIOS drivers or the GPU isn't functioning well with Direct X. Also, the demo is no longer available.
The DX10 demo runs smoothly on my laptop (4070m) and seems to be working correctly. It appears the issue might be related to a specific NVIDIA driver rather than the 5000 series limitations.
