Read the message, please. Do what it says. Oh, and BTW, 3.6.10RC3 is out, you should get that.

Seriously, that's the most self-explanatory error message the game HAS, for crying out loud.

reinstalled the Freespace Launcher
FreeSpace Open. The Launcher is merely a small tool related to FSO.

Pay close attention to reason #3 on that error report.

I followed like last time I've done this.. get FSO installer... and it install to directory downloads all files and then you use launcher..

I didn't install to default directory to a different folder this time... I don't think that is a problems.

Anyways I'm redoing the whole thing again now..

Let me put it this way.

You do understand that the FSO Installer does not install FreeSpace 2?
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

It should still allow an override just in case you are downloading on a different computer then you plan on installing or are downloading while installing or something.
