@For newbie: Don't forget crack before launching the game (otherwise you will get the "no license" error). By doing one of the following:

  • Method 1: before installing the game, check the following box:
    Uploaded Image

  • Method 2: or after installing the game, open the iso file, copy everything in the "RUNE" folder, then paste them to where you installed the game, enjoy ;) (see tutorial image here if you still dont know: https://igg-games.com/how-885614657-to-install-game-and-update.html)

==================
F.A.Q:

  • Q: I get "black screen" error??
  • A: This is a game's bug, to fix it, do the following. You need delete the config file in the path: "C:\Users<YOUR-USERNAME>\Saved Games\God of War Ragnarök\6144".

For those getting a BLACK screen.
AFTER playing one time, then the
game not loading/black screening.
Right click the EXE for the game,
compatibility, and hit disable Fullscreen optimizations
you may need to remove the preferences folder one time
prior. but, this should help others.. who indeed
have the crack folder. folder location for removing
preferences is in

C:\Users\pcname\Saved Games\God of War Ragnarök\6144
you can also try turning off your wifi before
booting up the game or disallow in firewall which
should do the same thing....

these "fixes" are not set in stone to resolve your issue.
so, try one until it works. or keep waiting for something
else to popup. ill edit this if i find anything else.
90% of these solutions came from
steam, and reddit. while one was from my own
findings with a few other users going back
and fourth in DM's with them.

for those trying to use 1fichier,
there is a "thing" you can find.
to get around that 1 download
an hour limit. (and bypass)
speed restrictions.

im not sure if im allowed to link it,
or if im frowned upon for saying that.
but just google "1fichier download bypass"
and hit the github link. runs on windows,
and linux. no need to install.
itll take a bit if you just copy the link
from 1F, but if you have the short link,
you already skipped the captcha process.
which makes it that much quicker to start.

Since this comment got buried,
for those having BLACK SCREEN ISSUES
or game doesn't start and your 100% your
crack files are in the correct location/no antivirus
software is interfering.
See this comment for
POSSIBLE solutions. NOTE you may need to
do this each time you fire up the game.
for "network, and removal of the file mentioned".
the crack itself works fine, the issues are from the game
itself (hence why such backlash was given)

6gb vram limit still seems to be a thing.
for those having that issue, use this
mod from nexus.

most the "mixed" b.s. is irrelevant..

NO DLSS b.s. 60fps (drops to 40 on the
"tree" whatever its called? i do have
higher..ish end hardware, 4070ti, 5800x.
but, 6gb vram limit bypassed, 16gb
ram bypassed all the reviews for this
thus far mostly nag about those issues..
some black screens, but most those issues
have been solved too...

all in all, it runs great on most hardware.
no devs can account for everytype of hardware.
(to be fair, FUCK SONY) but this game getting

every port sony has done, always has issues
but its quickly fixed. almost never left to demise.

Anyone here playing with a controller? If so, does the game detect your controller? Cause it's not detecting mine for some reason
EDIT:I fixed it by adding it to steam as a non steam game and running it through big picture mode. Never had this happen to me before
EDIT 2: So, despite my PC having less than 16 GB of RAM, I'm using the VRAM bypass mod and the game runs fine for me. It's all on medium settings which is more than enough for me. Also, I'm Portuguese and I barely ever set games to may native language but I figured I'd try with this one and I'm super impressed. Especially Kratos's VA, his name is Ricardo Carriço and I'm used to seeing him in, like, Telenovelas and stuff but as the voice of Kratos he's damn good

ds4w working fine with a ps4 controller.
my "output" is set to emulate a PS4 controller.
so, that would be my suggestion if you
prefer to just use ds4w. setting to xbox does not work.

do you have "disable virtual controller"
turned off if your using bluetooth?
if your wired, turn it off. if btooth, turn it on
no check for btooth.

running native settings except for a few
options in settings that make it turn off
bluetooth when charging. wired mode works,
but has the "double output" sometimes unless
i tick virtual controller.

I have two profiles on my DS4W, one for regular games and one that emulates a DS4 so I can get PS prompts on certain games such as Ghost Of Tsushima for example. Neither work for this game. The only way I got it to work was using Steam's own controller wrapper(Basically adding the game as a non stem game) and that got it working with Xbox prompts which isn't a huge deal for me.I don't have the disable virtual controller option checked, never needed to in the first place

i bet its due to the third party controller.
has to be... since i never use steam, or anything
else. only DS4W. only issue i ever had,
was dragons dogma dark arisen having controller
functions, but the layout was keyboard images...
which made it confusing af. (found a mod that solved that).
im excluding the double button issues some games
have when virtual controller isnt turned off,
and wired mode is in use to charge....

but, i quite literally never have issues. got this controller
given to me several years ago, bad charging port supposedly.
took it apart, connector somehow came unhooked?
worked ever since. i could upload my ds4w profile
(i also have two, one for when ps4 doesn't work,
i have it set to output xbox.) the other is a little
different than default... i can export, and upload it
tho if you wanna try it out and see if there is indeed
something configured wrong?

i gotta inquire if you have xinput installed,
as well as these three options ticked?
(xinput doesn't have to be installed for controllers
to work on most games. but some will not work
without it. which iirc, steam has it built in).

one more thing, lately ive been having to
stop ds4w, and start it back up.
not kill the app, just hit the stop button.
otherwise it sees my controller in the games.
but, nothing happens like you said in a
comment. which started with the most recent
update.

Like I said, I have DS4Windows fully set up and it works for every single game I own, pirated or otherwise, it's only this specific one that I have to use via Steam. The controller is not the issue, it's the game. Yes I have Xinput installed, otherwise the controller wouldn't work on any game.

like i said,
ds4w works great on a ps4 controller dude.
i asked about xinput bc alot dont install it.
and end up wondering why controllers dont work
on some games. its not a bad idea to add
the ticks i showed going thru settings,
then device options regardless.
then again, the controller works on other games,
so it could very well be a config error. either way,
good luck with it!

btw you asked about DS4W, no need
to get antsy bc i ask legit questions
dude..at least, your response seemed like it..
but, ya running it. using xbox layout.
that tick is usually the suspect. switching
to xbox with other controllers fixed it
for elden ring, GOT, etc. xbox layout
is an issue for me tho..

go for it, although. i seen ONE singular
person mention "driver or cpu overheating error"
but, they have a 1060 3gb which is older than any
1650. so, they may just need to re paste that card.
as no others have had that issue. some complain
it doesnt work for them. but, i believe they just
didnt follow directions... i dont need it personally.
but, 12gb wont be enough soon and i too will rely
on mods like this. even tho this GPU costed me
700u.s.d. in February before the 4070ti super dropped.
needless to say, if your CPU is missing AVX2 that is another
limitation youll face. which, afaik at this time. there
is no bypass/fix for that.

just to add, your vram will likely say
150% usage or some random b.s. like that.
lol.. so i wouldn pay much attention to
usage numbers if you monitor them.
ONE MORE THING, you MUST have 16 gb
of vram to use this mod. or it will NOT start.
i guess the mod has the game using system
memory, to make up for the lack of vram.

however, your AV can be an issue
when saving games etc.
controlled folder access,
and tamper protection both
can impact some games.
which is why i have controlled folder
access off. after many legit owned games,
wouldnt load with it on.

again, most answers when a game WORKS
then doesnt comes back to AV. not "ALL".

by keeping my saves the game remains on a black screen even with the update, but if I delete my saves the game launches fine

Edit : I managed to find a not pleasant solution but a good solution which works after several tries with your backups, before starting the game delete the "userpreferences" file and the game launches suddenly so yes you have to redo the settings each time but For now it's the only method I've found that works.

you still have the downloads. but,

Already found it thanks. My PC is in Portuguese so folders had different names. What I was trying to do was import a save I found on the Nexus that already had the classic Kratos skin unlocked but it didn't work. Maybe cause it was a ps4 converted save

Those are armor sets, not skins. And no, the classic skin you get from completing the Valhalla DLC and it 's literally just classic Krators from the old games. A lot younger, no beard, angry look on his face and even the scars from the chains of the Blades Of Chaos are much more fresh on his skin.

9 hours straight gameplay.
maxed settings no FG, no up scaling.
ive had no crashes, and no sluggish b.s.

Frame gen and DLSS seems to be where the
issue lay. supposedly people switch to AMD
FSR option, and the issue goes away.
(dont have the issue, so i cant say for sure)

10gb vram of 12 being used, (on for 5 hours now)
8gb of system memory being used.
have you downloaded and played at all yet?

i am thinking to do it but after jedi survivor (i left it abandoned and probably will uninstall it too) i dunno maybe if i wait a little more so they add more fixes, altho i have see some people with even a lower gpus who is giving me confidence

theres also something that i dont have, a controller,
i am very native to kb+m
how the kb+m working?

considering a 3050 runs this
ofc with upscaling at 100fps or
so (but, with upscaling that is indeed
where the "120/xxx"% vram usage happens.
but, its a bug in the menu from what i can tell.
but after burner never said that. it shows my max
actual usage. i dont use upscaling tho. may be why
ive not had the issues i see complaints about.

as for mouse and keyboard, i use a controller.
so, ill have to get back to you on that.
something i dont use really ever is kb+m.

unless your a Completionist, jedi survivor
shouldn take long. took around 40hrs or so
if i recall to beat the story. did not do everything.

For people have a black screen after patch 1.1.1, here is a solution that can help you:
I managed to find a not pleasant solution but a good solution which works after several tries with your saves, before starting the game delete the "userpreferences" file and the game launches suddenly so yes you have to redo the settings every time but for now it's the only method I've found that works.

your AV is probably interfering.
played for over an hour, 60fps 4k, no dlss scaling b.s.
on maxed settings. saved, quit, and loaded up again.
no issues. again, whatever AV your using is interfering.
yes, an update is released. but, the issue still stands.
re apply the crack (uploading to megaup now)
see if your issue just goes away...
and check the settings i mentioned in AV.

theres no any difference by disabling or enabling the vulkcan features and the other settings down below
by using the optimized settings from a ytuber game looks the same as the default settings but instead of using +4 gb vram you save 1 which turns into 3

for RDR2, it indeed has a difference.
i just replayed it 4 days ago bro.
had the b.s. issue with graphic settings
not sticking, no matter what. unless
i removed a folder, then re added it but,
empty with just one file with the proper name.
or, i could use vulcan just fine without that
folder trick. so, yes. it indeed made a difference.
(paid version on rockstar games)

for the look, no not really. but to make settings
stick yes. absolutely.

high is what i ran, bc thre was no difference

Yes, it is unfortunate that there is no audio support for the Chinese language in this game. I searched this game's Steam Discussions pages and there were no Steam user requests for Chinese audio support. I found that there was 1 Steam user request for Ukrainian audio support ("voiceover").

If you really desire audio support for the Chinese language and if you have a "qualified" Steam account (Meaning that you must have already spent at least $5.00 in Steam purchases. A free Steam account with $0.00 in purchases is not considered by Steam as a "qualified" account that is enough to have earned the privilege to make a post in the Discussions pages - In other words, you already have to be a paying customer to make a post) then you can post a request to the dev studio for audio support for the Chinese language in the Discussions pages. If enough Steam users back up your request then perhaps the dev studio will listen and reply to it.

Questions is, how much of graphical fidelity someone would get out of a monstrously challenging game like this.
720p, 30 fps, lowest settings?
I'm just guessing, but 4 GB VRAM is at least a GTX 980...a 10 years old video card.

Playing this with a 970 or 1060 3GB is probably...underwhelming, to put it mildly.

My exact config in the bedroom. Philips 43PUS6804 - a 60 Hz 43" TV and a 3080 Strix OC.
Of course, next year, I'll do my best to upgrade to a 5080 (price limit 1400 €) and put the 3080 into the 1080p computer/TV setup.
Others raise their children. I raise my computers. 🙂

It's not an achievement, I know. 😄

Btw, I can play all kinds of games on 60 Hz fine. I never play online though.

What does old mean...I'll be 43 in November, so...

It's just that I needed a PC to write e-mails and my stories/poems in 2014.

I used to be a console gamer from like 1990 to 2014, but writing mails with a PlayStation got trickier and uncomfortable.

That's why I bought a toaster-specs PC 10 years ago.
Once I opened the side panel, my interest in PC tech began growing.
This is where it all started!

We had an uncle in the family once, who ran a PC business and as a child, I always felt at home, being surrounded by all those humming computers in his basement.
There, I could play Need for Speed III fluently on a "big" 19" screen, at a higher resolution than 800x600.
This was like wow, back in 1998!

I always wanted to have that for myself, but it just never happened.
I got older and didn't succeed in life generally and socially, so today, my computers are my hobby and maybe a substitute/replacement for an own founded family, like wife and kids.

You see, there is much more in this to me than just a working PC which I can play a game on.
I want many PCs around me and it has to be RTX Strixes and Asus Maximus mainboards.
Necessary this is not, but it's a passion and to fulfill my hardware dreams, I'm cutting everything else short.
Discipline and money management is mandatory and I enjoy the basic life, because I know, it'll take a few months, but once I saved up enough, I'm going to buy big and I got good at building PCs and configurations - like that uncle of ours did in the 1990s. 🙂

The PS version has this compression method called Kraken that decompresses the game on the fly as you play it. It's part of a tech suite called Oodle which other pc games, like Cyberpunk for example, also use. That's why it's such a huge filesize, because it's fully uncompressed for some reason

i have enough to download this, extract it, leave it on my pc (the downloaded files, install it, and download it again) so around 1tb of free space is what i have. ISDONE.DLL errors can come down to not enough space. but, error 12 is "a pain".

something is causing issues with this. it very well could be the alternate language as roosevelt said in a previous response to you.

however, if you are on 24H2 that is a high chance on why this refuses to install. in any case, its as simple as "turning off any antivirus software you have, downloading, extracting (if direct downloads are used), running installer as administrator, and that is it.

but, since CRC checks keep failing, something is removing files or they arent being downloaded when your downloading them (this game works fine in case you are starting to doubt it).
if your antivirus software has controlled folder access turned on, turn it off too. (please do not just say "it is off" without checking. otherwise, i am wasting my time) you have no idea the amount of times i went back and fourth with someone on an issue like the one you have. for them to keep saying "Antivirus is off", only to it coming down to something with antivirus software.

however, if your 100% sure it is off. add an exclusion for this games download location. do one more step, check to see if your antivirus software has anything quarantined in it. if it does, allow it! While antivirus may not be your issue, we need to cover all possible issues you could face. Thus why i ask you to check, and not just assume.

24H2 is known to cause issues with empress cracks, but this isnt an empress crack. however, i have seen other games not run at all on 24H2 when they have been cracked.

i am on 23H2, (just bc of the issues with 24H2 and playing cracked games).

edit- after you turn off antivirus software from settings. dont touch that tool you downloaded "that is extra" just turn it off in settings. and see if it changes anything, also make sure nothing has been removed and is in "quarantined" in your AV while your in there (repeated this in case its forgotten bc i wrote quite alot).

The Windows version I have is 10. I have already disabled the AV (antivirus) from the settings as you suggested and added the folder to the exceptions. I ensured that the AV is completely inactive, but the problem persists.

I have a 1TB SSD, which I have partitioned into 200GB for Windows and 800GB for games. I also have an HDD. I tried installing the game on it, but it didn't work. I also tried moving the game to the HDD and installing it on the F partition of the SSD, but that didn't work either.

I hope this information is helpful. If you need to know more, feel free to ask.
I have 130GB of free space on the C drive, which is dedicated to the system

I appreciate your help.

EDIT : I downloaded another game now called Luddite, extracted the files, installed the game, and it worked.

hmm, grab yourself idm (internet download manager) or xdm (xtreme download manager) or Jdwnloader2 (exactly what its name is) ensure that any security measures built into your browser are off and that the download manager is taking over the file. (when you install a download manager, it will add a browser extension so it can hook the downloads so nothing gets missed.)

if you were to, stop a download. you could resume it without issues. if there was an issue, the download manager would say "hey, file is bad. going to reconnect to original link to attempt to redownload". (something like that) just one example. plus, its WAY FASTER using a download manager bc you can have up to 32 connections to a single download at one time. allowing the FULL WEIGHT of your bandwidth to be used. instead of "browser downloading" which is slow and painful. (even on fiber its still miles slower than what it could be).
also, ensure your AV is off (yes, i am asking that you grab IDM, XDM, or Jdownloader 2) any of the 3, two are free. IDM costs after 30 days.

i am almost certain now that you stated "130gb c drive free" that this is your issue. if you want to play this, you will need to partition that C drive and allow it more space while i am not sure windows will allow this after its already been done, this may be the only way to play. unless you create a "dual boot" (or Virtual machine) which the VM may not be the best idea and is not something i could walk you through. there is a chance i am mistaken, but im pretty sure that is your issue.

if i still had this game downloaded i would attempt to show you, but i have beaten this and removed it. (i would still get a download manager either way)

you could also "force a recheck" in your torrent application since this second time, that is what you used to download it. but again, 130gb is "on the edge" if you can REMOVE some stuff on your C drive, to make 20gb more space. that may just do the trick.

sorry about my late responses, finally got stalker 2 running longer than ten minutes again. turned out "admin" mode was the issue. had to stop running it as admin, which is backwards from all cracked releases.

I am already using IDM for downloading. As you mentioned, it is likely that the problem is due to the lack of space on the C drive. So, I will now remove the partition on the drive and try installing the game, and I will let you know the result
I also want to ask you, is the game STALKER now playable?

i was crashing on v1.0.2 but, that was bc "admin" mode was being used which is how i run all my cracked games
(developers even say to run this in admin mode on steam as a "how to") but it is now stable for me. and running at 1440p high/epic settings no dlss/upscaling. (5800x, 4070ti, 32gb)

be careful, windows does not like being fingered/played with that much lol.

read yours and roosevelts comments noticed at the end (ran out of space to continue conversation) not sure if you P/M'd him and yall got it fixed or not. but, do you by chance have your damned antivirus software turned on?

i can also link a "paid" (cracked) version of winrar from my PC, you will need to "install" a free version, then just copy and paste the files i share in a link into winrar's installation directory. which will make it work as usual, and will be a "paid" version. (it is not the very latest as the latest compared to what i have are well, latest is slower at compression/decompression vs the slightly older version....
NOTE- you can also just google winrar HKEY and go to the github link it shows up turning a free version into a full version by tricking it into doing so if you wish.

antivirus software is usually the leading cause in issues (that your facing now) outside of the strange lettering. So if your antivirus software was on (AT ALL) turn it off, and make a folder for where your crack downloads and installs go. then go into your antivirus software and make an exclusion for those folder locations (for downloads and installs).

tips for avoiding corrupted files during downloads are

  • use a download manager like IDM, XDM, Jdownloader 2 (XDM and jdownloader 2 are free) IDM is 30 day trial. it does have a cracked option. but that will avoid bad files when downloading "direct downloads".

Don't worry, I'm here to help you. I have a few suggestions:

  • Download the 7z software that I mentioned above, it's the best free software out there (I'm using it too, it's the best alternative to the latest paid version of winrar): https://7-zip.org/download.html

  • Then extract it using the "Extract Here" option. Let me know if it worked. Also take a screenshot of the error message 7z gives (if the error persists)

Here is a tip:

  • If you download from torrent, you don't need to care about corrupted files, because most torrent clients check that => that means you can't download corrupted files if the torrent client says it's 100% downloaded

  • If you use direct hosts like megaup,...: you should download them one by one. Maybe your internet is unstable, so some connections were closed during the download => corrupted files.

oh, i know the real reason, somehow your downloaded files got corrupted. here is my CRC32 code:

BTW, you can use torrent if you want, because you won't need to unzip afterwards :D... also with torrent, the files "cannot" get corrupted, because the torrent client always checks the validity of the file for you

I guess I might know the reason. It seems that these softwares can't understand those special characters. Please copy the rar files to drive D, then extract it from there.
