Mass Effect 2 Message Board  

I've got the same problem , tried all the solutions mentioned here to no avail , the strange thing is I completed the game over a week ago with the trainer working fine , but i tried to continue the game today to find any missions i missed & cannot get the trainer to work , maybe an update from microsoft has caused this? oh I have changed my soundcard , but should that really affect the trainer ?

edit: you might also want to try disabling windows defender and the windows firewall....those can block the trainer....as can a few other windows "features"


the trainer seems to have problems when

a) you HAVE dlc items (not just using them...just being installed)
b) the last mission of the game (anything after the omega 4 relay)
c) ^^ this includes "continued" games
d) any...and I mean ANY modding of the ini...if you enable weapons for your class you aren't supposed to or even mod the bindings in the coalesced...ANY

note:

here is the ini editor you WANT
social.bioware.com/project/1854/#discussions Link

the OP on this page has a link to the savegame editor....
forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3259234&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1 Link

those two combined are awesome....you can do most of the "character" edits you could want with the savegame editor, and with the ini editor you can make the game "easier", only thing you wont get any help at all on is the mini-games....which are easy anyways

Disabled Windows Defender, Deleted DLC's no result.
coalesced is the original one.

You may have the answer we need! you may have the answer we are looking for.

Hi, both gamers.
I'm not allowed to send you any suggestions. sorry.

Try to use the super administrator account in your windows version as described at this link.

This work for both Vista and Windows 7.

what do you mean with:I'm not allowed to send you any suggestions?? why not your advise cant hurt anyone.

Okay just tried the super administrator account thing & its worked , trouble is now i have to log in as a different user to play , oh well microsoft messing with our systems i suppose?

For me does not work. This super user has UAC disabled and you dont need to run applications as administrator. I did it but it doesnt work. Anyway i wait to get my copy of AC2 if that trainer doesn't work neither i might think about a refund, i'm mad!

le: just tried a trainer for Harry Potter and the Half Blood prince and it is working. So it's nothing wrong on my backend
