× Hello there,

Before you post a bug report or a feature or help request, please think about these things first:

This forum is for questions about problems with the mod, feature requests for future work and reporting bugs with the current build. Please do not post anything about Stargate in general or such.

Search before posting. There might be another topic written by someone with the same problem as you have that resolved the issue.

Do not hijack someone else's topic with irrelevant questions of your own.

Please try to test bugs more than once; a bug may only happen one time and thus needs not be resolved after for example restarting the game and trying again.

When reporting a bug or asking for help, please supply us with as much relevant information as possible. State what the problem is, when it occured, if you changed something yourself just before the problem occured and so on.

Last but not least, remember to be polite!

Hie, i try to install the game 5 times, every time the same:

The installer crashes juste after i click on "continu" after the terms of use.

It does not install the game.

I set the compatibility on "windows XP SP3" as i saw on another topic (it was for the laucher).
I launch the installer as administrator.

I got the gold edition from steam.
I'm on windows 8, maybe it comes from it?

Thank you if you give me a solution.

PS: please don't pay too much attention to my fault, i'm french.

i'm downloading the manual installation but i found a solution, the game is installed:

When the installer ask if i want to make auto updates, and another option, i said "no" to the 2, and this time it worked.

I hope it will help you to fix this bug.

EDIT:
I think the mod is correctly installed (i got a folder mods/stargate in my "corruption" folder in my steam.... folder), but the mod doesn't works: only the original game launch. If i use the "swfoc.exe" it's forces of corruption, if i use the launcher or the "stargate.bat" it the base game (sweaw).

Any suggestions?

EDIT 2:
I just saw on the "settings" of the launcher that the mod is on the 1.0 version, or i think i saw on the instructions on moddb.com that there is a version 2? but when i try to update, the launcher says that there is no update found.

The mod version is 1.0.0 which is correct ( =inital release version).
To run the mod in Steam take a look at the FAQ , chapter 3.8:

FAQ wrote: 3.8. TPC und Steam?
[...] go in your game library in Steam and right-click on Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption. Select Properties and add "swfoc MODPATH=Mods\Stargate" (without quotes) in launch options. Now the mod should start instead of the normal game if you double click on Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption.

already done and yes it works. the only remaining problem come from steam itself, i have the gold edition and even if i ask to launch FoC, SWEaW launch instead. (the base game, not the extention). No matter if i start the game from steam, for the swfoc.exe in "steamapps" folder, or the mod launcher or the .bat
It only start the good game (and the mod) if i start it BEFORE steam is on. But this problem doesn't come from the mod, the mod works good for me now.

To play the original game you have to reset the launch options in Steam.
But we are working on a fix to make it work with the launcher :)
