Title: Help please steam/old coh version
Post by: wazzgreg on July 15, 2013, 02:28:06 PM

Hello

Since the change over to steam I have not been able to get this game working. I can go on a game load it up but then nothing happens. I'm not sure what the issue is. I have changes all my coh games over to stea and I am able to play the vanilla coh. Just not sure how to play this using steam. Brilliant game by the way really wana give the ostheer a go. Any help would be much appreciated x

Check if Eastern Front has been installed into "...\steam\steamapps\common\Company of Heroes Relaunch". If not, install it into that directory, after that it should definately work.

Hey this error pops up 3/4 of the way through.

'error opening file for writing'

C:\program files x(86)\steam\SteamApps\common\company of hereos Relaunch\ Company of Hereos\Eastern_front\DataAttrib\ebps\environment\art_ambient\buildings\normandy_rural\roughstone_3x6_churchold_02\roughstone_3x5_churchold_02_sp_hells_highway,rgd.

I do have the option to ignore this however when i did i could load up the map but once i pressed the button to start nothing happened.

You have a bit wrong folder there, remove the bold part from folder while installing.

Hey

I have input the following without the bold part.

C:\program files x(86)\steam\SteamApps\common\company of hereos Relaunch\ Company of Hereos.

However the same issue is still happening everything loads up correctly but once I press the start button it crashes.

I can however load up the tutorial and play that.

Make sure you install EF in this path on the installer:
C:\program files (x86)\steam\SteamApps\common\company of heroes Relaunch\

and not this one:
C:\program files x(86)\steam\SteamApps\common\company of hereos Relaunch\ Company of Hereos

Also, make sure the correct path is set in the launcher's settings, in CoH Directory option.
