[Corsair]

I had a lot of time while the forums were down, and with the stuff going on at the VWBB, I came up with this....

Tut tut Corsair, one thread is quite enough.

Looks like you need to edit the project configuration.

vadar_1:

It seems that you still have path configured for E:\Games\FreeSpace2. That was the path where DaveB's FS2 were installed when he compiled the source for public. You need to change the patch to your own installation path.

Don't ask how, I'm not coder. I just noticed that when I was looking at the files.

Of course one of the possibilities might be that you have FS2 installed to E:\Games\Freespace2
