I did this and still had some issues, Blackbishop.  So I ended up tweaking the Eastern Front reg entry slightly, and baddabing, baddaboom, it now works.

Cheers folks!  Off to play this damned fine mod.

Bugs & Tech Support / Won't Launch, Read The Read Heres

« on: August 26, 2010, 07:44:36 PM »

As the title says, it won't actually launch the mod, and I've followed the instructions in the Read Here threads to the letter, three times.

I'm running a Steam version, and started by making sure COH was up to date (it was - 2.601.0).  I then installed 1.2 (downloaded from ModDB), that and every update, pointed it to

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes\

I did this for every patch the auto-updater would run, and I still get "Unable to locate Company of Heroes directory." error when I hit play.

As I've checked, double checked, and triple checked, having, as I said, done this installation 3 times now, I'm getting a little flustered.

It's a Windows 7/64 machine.  I've got COH(V), COHOF and COHTV from the Steam deal a while back.

Any help is of course appreciated, and if its something I can fix by altering a file in notepad, just let me know and I'll give it a crack.

Cheers,
