Cant play mp
« on: November 29, 2010, 05:49:46 PM »
i installed game to:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes
updated until it says "up to date"
but then i open game, and try to connect into my friend server, it says:
"Invitation problem"
"you have been invited by (name), but you cant join it" (something like this...

for my friend, it says my version is wrong, but why launcher says, my game is up to date, even then i press "about" it says 3.1.0.0

EDIT: I noticed that launcher is turning on simple coh without ef mod, but my game is up to date, what problem i have?

The Launcher version is 3.1.0.0 and the mod version is 1.2.3.2, but the latter isn't shown anywhere. Imo that should be implemented.

You can try with a shorcut:
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes\RelicCoH.exe" -dev -mod Eastern_Front

Could you post a warnings.log where you played EF?

Could you go to "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes\EF_Update" (or something like that) and check that the five updates(1.2.1.0~1.2.3.2) are there. Then install them one by one and check that the path that is shown in the installer be the correct one.

Also you can check if there's a directory called "C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\" with EF content, meaning that the updates were installed in the wrong place.

Either reinstall the patches as described in the first paragraph or just copy the content from "C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\" to "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes\" and allow to overwrite.

P.D. You can dispose the "C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\" directory if exists. Because you will only need the steam one.

Could you check and post the MD5 checksum of your EF v1.20 installer?

I have a hunch about your installer being corrupted. You should download it again.
