Title: Windows 8 problems
Post by: Clubby71 on May 10, 2014, 10:06:22 PM

I got a new computer and have tried to install the mod  to steam, but the mod just won't take and I only get corruption.  I have used the zip file download which I at first copied directly into the file and also I have tried copying from the desktop.  I then  created the path for launch options as C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Star Wars Empire at War\corruption\Mods\Imperial_Civil_War using copy and paste from the C Drive.  What am I missing?

Did you do it in the steam launch options for FoC or did you try to create a shortcut and run through that?

In Steam, you need to go to the options for SW:  EaWG and SET LAUNCH OPTIONS... to

swfoc MODPATH=Mods/Imperial_Civil_War

It will then work.
