strange error with launcher
I keep getting this strange error whenever I try to run the launcher 5 which says it cannot read flag file. Then when it loads, it shows absolutely no flags in the menu; absolutely NOTHING there.

This is quite odd, and its been happening for some time now. Any help please? :confused:

I suspect this is a problem with launcher.ini or flags.lch Are either missing? What happens if you  move them?

I know that problem. I had in two cases:

1. I was out of memory. (1,5 GB pagefile :wtf: ) Try Strg+Alt+Del deactivate explorer.exe and start launcher.exe via new task.

2. I don't really know, but it worked fine after I moved FS2 to c:/games/Freespace2 ;)
