won't even start
« on: October 12, 2012, 12:40:36 PM »
Ok, so I install the mod and the hotfix, but the game won't even start, it just locks up on either a black or a white screen.  I've double checked and I installed everything where it's supposed to be.  Tried using the .bat file to start it and it locked, with a message that an exception has occured.  I'm not using Steam version, my original install of FoC is from the Gold Pack.

I've double checked the install and everything is where it's supposed to be.  If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.  Let me know if you need additional information.

It sounds like you're lacking the FoC RAM fix. There's a link to it in this thread: http://gutr.swrebellion.com/forums/index.php/topic,2799.0.html

See step 2 of Corey's installation guide.
"That's not what the Empire would have done, Commander. What the Empire would have done was build a super-colossal Yuuzhan Vong-killing battle machine. They would have called it the Nova Colossus or the Galaxy Destructor or the Nostril of Palpatine or something equally grandiose. They would have spent billions of credits, employed thousands of contractors and subcontractors, and equipped it with the latest in death-dealing technology. And you know what would have happened? It wouldn't have worked. They'd forget to bolt down a metal plate over an access hatch leading to the main reactors, or some other mistake, and a hotshot enemy pilot would drop a bomb down there and blow the whole thing up. Now that's what the Empire would have done."

I started to suspect that after I read around a bit, I've downloaded it and will give it a try after the kids go to bed.  Thanks for your help.
