Freespace2 Errors (Apologies in advance)
I purchased a copy of Freespace 2 from GoG.com

I found a few of "Turney's"(sp?) walkthrough on this forum and others, and from what I believe, I followed the instructions closely.

I installed the game into directory C:\Games\Freespace2\

I downloaded and installed the windows Installer

I ran the installer and allowed it to update. As suggested I ran the installer twice after in case anything installed incorrectly.

I installed OpenAl for windows.

I made sure to run the installer into the aforementioned directory, and made sure there was no C:\games\freespace2\freespace 2 as mentioned in another person's post.

I still have no idea what it is I'm doing wrong.

I'm running Windows 7 64 bit if that matters, and am more than willing to provide pictures of what the contents are of any related folders.

Re: Freespace2 Errors (Apologies in advance)
The installer is unfortunately broken right now, you'll have to go for a manual install.

Stick with it, though, it's worth it!

Exactly what problem are you getting right now? You never specified exactly what's going wrong.

e: One big problem I see there is that there are no actual FreeSpace 2 files in that directory. Looks like it installed somewhere else.

Odd that it isn't in there now, will remove and reinstall the files again. Is there a particular walkthrough I should follow?

Okay, it's currently running.

Truly appreciated, I'd hate to think that I snipped all those images for nothing, so here's what I clipped as I installed. (Figured it might have shown my errors, to those who know better.)

It seems like you did everything right.  If something goes wrong, just post again.
