Bugs remaining after Patch#1

Stages.
• Chapter 6-1: Ship Deck. Sometimes Majini with a key-card can't jump down after spawn and you can't kill him to get a key-card.
Fixed - http://residentevilmodding.boards.net/thread/4418/chapter-ship-majini-resident-steam

• Desperate Escape Stage 1. Some enemies, like a Chainsaw Majini or Gatling Majini, can't get out from the container.
Fixed - http://residentevilmodding.boards.net/thread/4447/

• Ugly waves in Chapter 2-1: The Port (not a stage bug actually, vfx bug). Not fixed. {ENLACE ELIMINADO}http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/f5aa/1hhd9pkg7dkv638zg.jpg <<Screenshot.
• Chapter 3-1: Marshlands. Area with crocodiles on the east. After restart from the checkpoint, crocodiles enemy set will be cycled to infinity respawn. Changing stage files doesn't help. Not fixed.
• Chapter 3-1: Marshlands. North area. If you place the mines before picking up the quest item, they will disappear while cutscene playing and appear after cutscene's end. In GFWL version, mines will stay in the cutscene and enemies will hitting mines in cutscene. Not fixed.
• Chapter 3-2: Oil Field - Refinery. Restart from the checkpoint, after killing one or both Chainsaw majinies, will cause enemies, that you've killed before, to respawn. Not fixed.
• Mercenaries. Container's collision bug in the Ship Deck stage. Not fixed.

Misc.
• Games for Windows Live is required to launch and play the game. FIXED by Mulac.
• Unable to give or request weapons from AI partner in campaign. FIXED by Mulac.
• Region lock when searching for the game lobby. FIXED by Mulac.
• Loosing equipped weapon after death in versus mode (except Jill BSAA). FIXED by Mulac.

• Slots scheme always sorted for gamepad usage in mercenaries and all Gold Edition content. In GFWL version they are switching if you are using keyboard and have numerical scheme ON.
• Turning ON anti-aliasing will result black outlines on the characters and objects.
• Static title screen. "Resident Evil 5" title is not animated.
• Private slots when hosting a Mercenaries, Mercenaries Reunion, or Versus lobby doesn't work properly. Client accepting invite (or choosing "join game" when selecting friend in steam) will get a "The player limit has been reached" message.
• During the chapter result screen in co-op, if one player chooses "OK" and second player lets the 60 second timer run out, the game will soft lock for both players.
• When hosting a LAN-only server, friends can still join via the internet by sending them invite or having the friend choose "join game" when selecting you in steam.
• Lost in Nightmares static camera angle Easter egg (interact with front door 3 times) isn't fully playable with mouse and keyboard controls (aiming gets stuck to middle of screen).
• Collision bug, where players and enemies could get stuck in geometry at framerates above 30 is mostly fixed, but it can still happen when playing at 120fps, and it has a very low chance of occurring when playing at 60fps. Its behaviour is now identical to how it was in the GFWL version.

[The Formal Goat]

For some reason I was playing a campaign with a friend online and He was able to give/request weapons but I was not. He ended up losing a Max upgraded sniper rifle which I still have to this very day. Pls enable all players to give weapons freely?

weird problem
im having an issue where i cannot load a game or even start a game. I can run the benchmark ok and even select the loadout. But the game crashes when it tries to load. I have tried the usual fixes here, but no success. I am just about to try that 2019 fix to see if that works. Fresh install w10 all up to date and all new drivers, no dice. Anyone have a similar issue.??
thanks

i know its a bit late to the party but im desperate

I got a consistently reproducible (100% of the times) crash and an error message reading:

 re5dx9.exe - Fatal application exit 
inflate: incorrect data check: -3 

The crash occurs in episode 3-2 (oil field area), right after you team up with Josh to scape a horde of mutants. After succesfully scaping, Chris and his partner split ways with Josh. The very first door the user has to cross after the cutscene makes the game crash.

I've tryied this possible solution (https://steamcommunity.com/app/21690/discussions/0/2579854400751094756/) and didn't work

It happens every time (6/6 times). Here are my PC specs:

THANKS SO MUCH

this was driving me nuts.

[zookle]

I know this thread is old as hell, but even after trying the following we still can not keep a stable online co-op session...

1) uninstall, reinstall, and get the fan patch. extract and put into RE5 folder -- still crashes
2) went to older DX version -- still crashes
3) uninstalled all GFWL programs/apps -- still crashes
4) changed who the host is -- only 1 crash so far but not looking good, will keep trying this

at this point we are about to give up but really enjoy the co-op. are there any ideas out there?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1533171339 i would suggest everyone to download this fixes, since capcom wont do it. i think it fixes everything that is here plus some additions like playing no mercy in coop and no mercy reunion mode

even if you had the gamey, games for windows live was shutdown it don't exist anymore.... what you can do however is create a offline profile for it... so u can save u game and play the old version.

Shutdown how, if I was playing SFIV online just a moment ago with a friend? You just need to install GFWL, use the CD-Key that Steam shows you and use your Xbox account. In RE5 case, for some strange reason, the CD-Key is missing (I remember to see it before Valve change Steam Library). I believe that you should contact Valve and ask about your RE5 GFWL CD-Key (I already have my key written down, so I don't need to).

I already posted this as a new post but I thought I should also report it here.

I bought the game a few day days ago while it was on sale and tried to play it for the first time today, but I can't launch the game. When I click on play it immediately crashes with a "sNetwork::init() error" message box. I tried several fixes I found online but none of them worked, does anyone have an idea about how to solve this ?

Here are my specs (even though I don't think there's a correlation since I don't have any trouble with any of my 223 other Steam games):
-Operating System: Windows 10 64b
-CPU: XEON E5-2678
-GPU: NVIDIA Quadro P5000
-RAM: 12GB

I heard news years ago that they would close it, if it's still alive and online thanks to tell i was wrong then.

Yeah, the closing day of GFWL has not arrived still.
As far as I am aware ALL GFWL games still work to this day.
My GFWL versions of SF4, SSF4AE, RE5 and SFxT all work still.
