  1. Just an update on this issue, the issue is apparently with Launchbox, and ofcourse Bigbox. I can create a .bat file and add the games executable for the Ea Desktop App games to the launcher command and it works, but after it opens eadesktop before launching the game it always says "This game requires administrative permissions Yes or No options" so I have to click those which kind of takes away from the whole click on a game and run it idea as I have tried setting launchbox and the game and the ea desktop apps to run as administrator. Either way, I just wont be playing anymore Ea Desktop games, I mainly only played NFS Most Wanted and NFS The Run, and as for NFS The Run you have to have it blocked in your firewall anyway to play it offline as there are no more servers for the online stuff. Everything I try to run using Ea Desktop App gives me this issue when launching it with Launchbox. But my decision to no longer use anymore of their Ea Desktop App games is based on the fact that it has been completely a mess ever since they switched from Origin to this cloud all the time and then proceeded to cut off the cloud for most of the good game in my opinion. Mainly I wanted to come back and mention this so that perhaps the developers will see this message and give them more insight as to what was going on with the problem so that it might help someone else in the future. I do have one tip for those who might experience a problem in Launchbox where the videos sometimes play and sometimes don't and only show a black screen on the right until you click it for FULLSCREEN with the ARROW. I was having this problem, and what I did was I switched the theme to "Default Plus", at least for me that resolved the issue, That could be a result of my internet service or perhaps my PC not able to handle all that extra information it retrieved or something else like my personal OS settings, because the default seems to retrieve more information. Switching to Default Plus theme solved all of that. Anyway, Just wanted to give an update since noone has an answer and provide as much information as I could to perhaps help someone else and the devs. Like I said, I just wont be playing Ea Desktop Games anymore as it has been nothing but frustration since the day I bought the first game from them. Too many other games out there to play from Steam and Epic Games "Which give away many free ones" and others. Games are meant to be fun, not irritating and just my opinion here Ea Desktop is nothing but irritating.
  2. I am having a problem trying to launch EA Desktop games from Launchbox, I get this error when trying to run them from launchbox that says missing required ssleay32.dll. The problem is I can simply go to the file it is trying to launch and run it and I do not have that problem at all. Or that is, run the command line/click on it etc. Any ideas? The games working fine, it's just that Launchbox latest version is having an issue launching it for some reason. Any help would be appreciated. Sure I could install Openssl, but that's obviously not the problem since I can run it by clicking on it from file explorer.
  3. Thank You Kiinkyfoxx, the only thing I am doing with my mouse cursor is changing the size and color of it.
  4. I am having the exact same issue. I haven't found any solution yet though.
    First I want to say Thank You! This is exactly what I have been looking for, it's great! I like using Game List View : Vertical Wheel 1 and Platform list View : Platform Wheel 1. For me this is PERFECT! Thanks again!
