Do you have all latest updates installed and what version of Windows you have?

ShockUnitBlack · 2013-01-08, 06:02

I'm getting a ton of CTDs also. Windows 8 32 bit on a Radeon 5770.

Hi, Tried 6.5 on this page? Mumble - UniWiki

Set a parameter to get the overlay working. Not able to try myself, but report back the result after trying, thanks!

Springo, welcome to the forums!!

Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention, let's get some people to try this out:

There seems to be an issue with how Mumble injects the overlay in Windows 8/Windows Server 2012. To get the Overlay to work properly just add -nod3d9ex to your Mumble shortcut.

** This workaround seems to be working with Mumble 1.2.4-beta1-4-g90599b8 Litoralis Note: Don't install this it will not work as a replacement for PRMumble 1.0.0.4Beta . PRMumble uses mumble 1.2.0 as the base, we need to see if this command line switch is compatible with 1.2.0 .

Tested it. Does not appear to be.

Something to read. I don't know if that works but someone could try it:
mumble overlay not working with windows 8?

ShockUnitBlack · 2013-01-19, 21:05

Recommend using compatibility mode and running the game as an admin on 8 for stability reasons.

I see people still trying this. Good deal. I'm going re-install windows 8 and fiddle with this again tomorrow. Just spent an entire week configuring an android tablet especially for family member with advanced Parkinson disease.. success. need a change of pace and want to help kill this mumble overlay dragon!! I'll report back what happens.

EDIT: I spent the day fooling around with clean install of Windows 8 and PR Mumble version. Tried all sorts of things. The only thing I can surmise is that the reason it worked through two games when I upgraded from Windows 7 to 8 last month was because some files (perhaps .dll's that Litoralis is referring to) got overwritten before a reboot. If it were possible to reapply files from Windows 7 then maybe we got a fix. I conclude it's like Litoralis said.. Windows problem.

Really hoped I could get this working. Back to Windows 7..
