Edit: It seems I've managed to fix the ICW error, but I'd still appreciate if any of you could help me with the campaign crash.

« on: July 05, 2017, 09:18:01 AM »I played this game a long time ago and decided to tackle nostalgia by buying it on Steam and installing a few mods so I could play them after I was done with the campaign. My issues started with the vanilla game itself, when you assault the Droideka factory. During the last cutscene when Zann talks to Jabba, the game would freeze (the audio would keep rolling for a while) and an exception error would pop up. Naturally, I googled it and a lot of people had this issue, with the solution being the RAM patch.
Now, I did notice that everyone said it was already incorporated into the Steam version. No matter, I'd try it anyway. Except I couldn't, because it would change the Eaw.exe fine, but would tell me it couldn't write into the SWFOC directory.
I begrudgingly accepted the fact that I probably wouldn't be able to try out the campaign, and decided to play ICW instead. I tried to start a Galactic Conquest as the New Republic, and the game would crash, with the same error, while Mon Mothma was talking. Tried out vanilla EaW and I would get the error while firing up the Rebellion Campaign (it wouldn't even load the first map, just clicking on the logo would cause it). Any help?
Edit:
This is the error code during Tyber Zann's campaign:

I'm assuming the game's trying to access some file and it's not being able to? I did edit some XML files to increase the unit cap in both vanilla and the mod, I'm not sure if that's the issue or not. The files I edited were: Markers, Planets, Gameconstants, Factions, Expansion_Factions.
