Can't Run FAF after install

Postby Almus » 05 Mar 2017, 02:58

Hey all,

Looking to get into FAF, downloaded the latest client, ran the installer no problem. Try to run the shortcut that shows up on my desktop, and I get this error popup.

(I can't post the screenshot since the forum system thinks it's too spammy. Here's what the error popup says)

Titleblock- cxFreeze: Python error in main script

Message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
C:\Miniconda\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\Console.py", line
27, in <module>
File "src/_main_.py", line 43, in <module>
File "ExtensionLoader_PyQt4_QtGui.py", line 22, in <module>
File "ExtensionLoader_PyQt4_QtGui.py", line 14, in _bootstrap_
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,
Almus

Which version of the client installer did you download from where?

Could you please make a list (screenshot) of all the files in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Forged Alliance Forever"?

Hrm

There is no Forged Alliance Forever Folder in my program files.

The installer seems to always dump the files directly into C:\. I've tried to direct the file elsewhere (first into a new folder called Forged Alliance Forever inside the Program Files folder, then to just a generic folder in C:\) and it won't install the files into the folder, only onto C:\

Something is screwed up with your Windows then. No idea how to fix that, sorry.
