hello, i just download eastern front , and i cannot access the sovient army. i have been readign through several forums and it appears i need to download a patch as well. am having trouble downloading a patch, because i have no idea where to get it from and i also dont know where to specifically install the patch. my current version of coh is 5.1 i think.

just a correction to my above post,  my current version is 2.501, and i have managed to get the patches. when i try to install them they give me an error 10242,  " a complete, valid coh could not be located"
 i installed my game in the local C: ? how do i solve  this?

Most likely your intallation is either pirated or corrupt. If it's corrupt try reinstalling CoH from your disc/steam and reapply the patches. If it's a pirated .zip version to unpack & play Eastern Front mod won't work unfortunately.

Abuse is abuse and has to go.

If you want to do it, it is up to you, but if I'd recommend to talk with him by PM.
