Help! D= Unknown symbol (address 0x008ce880)

Postby SgtPepper » 27 Jun 2012, 21:05

I have the steam version of Supreme Commander and FA, I heard of FAF so I thought I'd install it and give it a try. So I install it everything is good but when I try to join a game host a game watch a replay launch the exe really anything involving FAF it just crashes and shows me that error msg. ( (address 0x008ce880) ). I've tryed everything I can think of uninstalling reninstalling, redownloading, rebooting my pc. I've been trying everything I can think of for like a day now and I just keep getting this game msg no matter what. and my regular SP and FA work fine when I launch them, I just dont know what to do and would really appreciate some help.

My crash report if it helps.

The fa_path is not correctly set.

Options - Settings - Game path ...

Um, I have checked that and it is pointed at the correct folder I believe, C:\Sgt Pepper's Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance. That looks right? no?

No. You can't put the character ' in the folder name. That is causing the problem.
