Try to reinstall, seems like you are missing a lot of files...

i have exactely the same problem. if i download the EF-updater it contains just 3 files:EF_api.dll, EF_api.shell.dll and ef_launcher.exe no ef_language.ini and no ef_version.ini. i use the CoH-OF as stand-alone.

how can i get those files?

EF_language.ini is not important, only if you want other then english launcher.

For EF_Version.ini make a new file called "EF_Version.ini" and paste this into it

Code: [Select]
[EFVERSIONINFO]
Major=1
Minor=0

Hi guys

Is it possible you've downloaded the updated launcher (2.4) rather than the complete mod?

The file you need to install is EF_Setup.exe

From the description of your problem you may have downloaded and installed the launcher patch without the mod.  On the home screen scroll down just past the box art for these links.

Cheers!
