Installation Issues
« on: February 29, 2016, 03:31:08 AM »
I downloaded the .RAR version and I followed the Instructions but it isn't working, It adds some maps to custom maps but thats it (Im not even sure if its all of them). The Installation Path is:
D:\GameApps\Steam\SteamApps\common\Star Wars Empire at War\corruption\Mods\Imperial_Civil_War

I've added the launch options to steam as well.

Really? No one has any response or answers? I really want to play this mod but If I can't fix this I won't bother.

Yeah I took a look at that, but I don't know how to change the launcher to find my game like in that post

Can you post what you have in the launch options?
I also have a YouTube channel where I talk about mod development and gaming, do tutorials, and Let's Plays. If you like the content, consider supporting it on Patreon

Do you mean for steam? For steam I have "MODPATH=Mods\Imperial_Civil_War" (without the quotations)

Did you double-check to see if the installation put everything in the right place?  You say your install path was D:\GameApps\Steam\SteamApps\common\Star Wars Empire at War\corruption\Mods\Imperial_Civil_War - have you checked to make sure there's a Data folder inside, rather than a doubled up pair of Imperial Civil War folders like was happening in another thread?

Also, when launching through Steam, are you selecting Empire at War or Forces of Corruption to play?  Because it should be the latter.

Yeah I checked and it goes straight into Data from the civil war folder. I've been launching Forces of corruption as well. I honestly don't know where it's gone wrong :-\

Try verifying the integrity of your game cache through Steam - perhaps one of the base game files was corrupted somehow.  If that doesn't fix it, try starting from scratch - uninstall everything, manually delete the folders to make sure there's nothing left, then reinstall.

Have you used any other mods?  Any that alter the EaW data folder can mess with ICW.

Ive verified my cache through steam and it said all files were validated and this is the only mod Ive ever tried for EAW. I'll try uninstall and reinstall.
