Re: Reinstalling my games
I've checked the helpdesk and the last ticket you've sent us from your "@cox.net" domain email address is from 321 days ago. Could you please try send us from a different email address?
Thank you.
Re: Reinstalling my games
I do not know how to do that as this is the only e-mail I have. would it do any good to post them here? Thanks! Steve (Okie)

The above is what I get exactly. Can any one fix this so I can get back to playing the games? OR could I just redownload all the games like when I first bought them, without having to buy them all again?
Maybe Slitherine could send me a disc with all the games on it and I could download it all to my hard drive and get everything working that way? Okie

Re: Reinstalling my games
This is not a problem with the game installation. This is due to an error in a mod.Okie wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 3:15 am First one:

You need to delete the MP TT Mod folder:
C:/Users/Steve/Documents/My Games/FieldOFGlory2/Multiplayer//TT_MOD_MP_CUSTUM_BATTLES
That should hopefully fix the issue, and then you can try and redownload the Mod.

Re: Reinstalling my games
Every time I try, it tells me it can't find it? Is there some special way to find the folder??? Okie
I've even tried to uninstall the games so I can start again but can't get the uninstall to work either???

Re: Reinstalling my games
There is nothing special about the folder, it is just a normal folder in your documents in
/Documents/My Games/Field of Glory 2/ Multiplayer/
You probably don't need to uninstall/reinstall the game. Uninstalling the game would not delete the contents of the above folder anyway.I've even tried to uninstall the games so I can start again but can't get the uninstall to work either???

What has happened here?
Has Okie's download of the mod become corrupted, or have I done something wrong with this file? Surely if something was wrong with the mod everyone would have this issue?
Since when was the mod name spelt CUSTUM anyway, when I last looked it was spelt CUSTOM. Or has Okie merely typed it out wrong?
cheers

I also cannot think of any reason why Okie cannot find the mod to delete it.

Re: Reinstalling my games
Yes, I spelled a word wrong but still can't seem to find the damn Mod and am getting more then a little frustrated!!! Okie

Can you Find the folder
/Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/Multiplayer ?
or
/My Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2/Multiplayer?

Re: Reinstalling my games
I have just been conversing with another player on the Steam forums, who had exactly the same error message.
He reported that the Text1.txt in his version of the TT Mod was totally blank. It should of course have text in it. Which makes me think that the download may have been corrupted. Probably the best thing is to download the mod again.
