Did you run the installer with admin rights?

What OS your pc has?

For christ sake...

Read the news feed. EF Is obsolete with 2.602. Wait for 1.4 to come out.

Well... no need to react like a bitch... his first post was from the 21st and I am sure he just checked for the answer and not for the homepage.

Yes but I am angry that this issue is being repeatedly posted or asked about on the forum when the god damn solution is NOT ONLY on the front page and the news feed, but if you were so inclined to actually find out WHY you were crashing before posting the same topic twice, you would find that there are multiple, no, DOZENS of post and topics acting the SAME QUESTION, which MOST of them have been answered directly.

Don't be lazy and you won't get an angry response.

I've enjoyed this mod since its release and haven't had problems until now. Now for buildings and units i get a bunch of blue and purple cubes, it is frustrating me.

Uinstall EF, make sure all it's files were deleted. Download and install the fulll installer of EF 1.40.

I did what you told me to do, so now it crashes every time i open it. The launcher says it's "gathering information" then an error report window pops up and this is continuing to occur

...

I REALLY don't feel like posting the link to the solution of this error because it's easily accessible via search and about 3-5 of the same questions concerning the same error pop up daily.

Go through the Bugs and Tech Support forum. See if you find the solution. I guarantee you that you will...
