NFS 2015 Won't Launch (Steam-EaPlay) SOLVED
I don't know If anyone already had this kind of Problem, I recently Bought EA Play for one month on Steam, Downloaded the NFS 2015 and Tried to launch it, The game doesn't launch at all, it opens Origin for a Few Seconds, Steam After that Shows the Game is running only for a few seconds and then it stops, I see the PC loading something, but when I open up Task Manager There's no NFS 2015 process only Origin.
I tried everything, Reinstalled and Downgraded GPU drivers, Launching in Compatibility mode, Tried to launch direct from Origin, Verified Game files, and nothing worked for me.
I have to say I already had NFS Heat on Steam and the Game works perfectly, even modded it once,
I would Appreciate If anyone knows the Solution for this!
My PC specs:
Windows 10 PRO 64 Bit
AMD Ryzen 5 3400g 3.7Ghz
AMD Radeon RX Vega 11 Integrated GPU 2GB VRAM
HyperX Predator 16 GB Ram
Kingston SSD A400 480 GB
A320M Pro Motherboard

Steps:
1) Close Steam
2) Install EA App (if you don't have it)
3) Login in EA App and go to Config -> App & turn off overlay.
4) Download Origin from here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin-Client-Web-Technical/Downloading-and-installing-Origin-Windows-and-Mac/m-p/11915666/thread-id/134033
5) Install it and login, then go to Config -> Origin in game & turn off overlay.
6) Start the game from Origin, this will automatically start the game from Steam, will not be able to open the EA App and since you don't need the overlay will use Origin instead.
7) Play all old EA games that interest you before Origin die..

I was able to play (or at least get to the menu) in BF1, MEC and NFS2015 (NFS Heat works with the new launcher).
I'm going to post this on the three forums since it took me all night to get them running and I couldn't play anything because it was so late..
If it works share it.

I actually figured out, Try Launching Steam as Admin, that works for me!

This is working for me:

Force the use of specific Steam Play compatibility tool < GE-Proton7 - 37

Hi, one question. I have the same problem and I can't play. How do I open steam in administrator mode?

You magnificent son of a gun, I went through your ridiculous 7 step process thinking "there's no way this will work", and it worked. Thanks, man. (Edit: game did crash during a race though, never had that happen before. just closed.)


Shouldn't be necessary though, what a fumble, especially during this 99 cent EA Play promotion. Not making it look so hot lol

For me it shows a error saying that it couldn't launch activationUI.exe
And I did a clean installation recently

I can't either, even though I checked the consistency of the game, now I can't update it because it shows that there is a write error on the disk, do you have any ideas how to fix it? [they really didn't fix this pc game]
