Hello, I heard about this mod from a friend, and, after a considerable amount of time, have finally managed to be able to get it onto my PC. However, I'm having issues starting the game with the EF Launcher, you see, where I live, my internet connection is not all that great, and cuts out at regular intervals. Now the EF Launcher's a useful tool for anyone with a half-decent connection, but if I want to play Eastern Front and it's 2 in the afternoon, then I have to wait a good 1 or 2 hours before my connection gets itself in gear and gets running so the Launcher won't stay on 0% checking for updates that it just will not get.
So, I'm hoping that there might be some sort of workaround, mods like Blitzkrieg and European Theater: Normandy 1944 are accessed (or can be accessed) by grabbing a CoH shortcut and changing the target to (for example): "C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -dev -mod EuropeanTheater1944
Would there be any way that I might be able to do the same for EF?

Sure, you can use this:
"C:\Program Files\THQ\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -dev -mod Eastern_Front"
or if you want to use the launcher, try disabling the auto-updater. Open EF_Launcher_Config.ini located in CoH Directory and change this line:
Auto_Update=True -> Auto_Update=False
EDIT: You can disable that on the settings menu, but as you said about your connection problem, you should edit the file.

Thank you very much :)
I eargerly anticipate the adding of the Ostheer faction in your future updates.
