Nothing happens on "Play"
« on: June 03, 2011, 08:21:47 PM »
Hi,
i had a completely working install of EF, then steam patched the game. I reinstalled EF.

When I start the EF Launcher, everything works (of course I switched off auto-update). However, when I click "Play", nothing happens besides the Launcher minimizing.

Thanks in advance,
Meo

Might controls everything, and without strength you cannot protect anything. Let alone yourself...

I did read this, and every folder is specified correctly. EF is installed in the Steam-folder where CoH is located. The folder setting in the Launcher is correct.

Here it is. Do you need more?

Did you installed EF at least two times?

Make sure you are running the launcher located on that directory. Otherwise you can create a shorcut to avoid using the launcher:

The shortcut works.

Thank you for your help!
