Title: got a strange problem, need help!
Post by: darkship on August 25, 2006, 10:15:05 am

um well its actually my friend that has the problem, its when he installed and ran the launcher, it came up with a "mod directory cannot contain space" now we renamed everything so that the mod files all had no space yet the some warning came up over and over. we updated the build he was using, installed openal in teh right place, ran freespace vanilla first and yet no change...

wat is the problem? i have some screenshots below.

It's installed under C:/Program Files/Freespace. That's the problem, the Program files (I.E. Program_files) directory has a space in it, move your Freespace folder to C:/Games or something and try from there. All should now work! :nod:

Tell your friend to pick latest Launcher (5.4 not 5.3), builds (3.6.9. RC6) and mediaVPs (3.6.8. zeta AND Taylor's 710 patches)
