Okay, so when I go into an EiR game this weird thing happens. The game is frozen for all the other players, and on my screen I see this :

Heh, you can even see little unrigged germans in that bunker.

As soon as I leave, the game starts up for everyone else... (this screenshot was a 1v1 we were testing, but the same thing happened in a 2v2 and 3v3 I think) I've tried reinstalling EiR with no success... I just dl'd it a day or two ago and haven't been able to play a game yet. Even after about an hour of a very nice fellow (centurionA41) trying to help out, we were guessing there was something wrong with the install...

Oh, I'm running vista and CoH is a retail copy, not steam. I did dl that ms visual C++ that you guys linked to.

Looks like your battle files aren't getting installed correctly.  Are you using the launcher and confirming the download of the battle files?  Are you running the launcher as an administrator?

Umm, no I'm not running the launcher as an admin.. I'll try that. And No, I haven't tried editing any files.

You should have a file called EuropeInRuinsBattle.sga in your COH\EuropeInRuins\Archives directory everytime you play a game.

That's probably the issue.  Wink  Assuming the launcher is prompting you to download the battle files and is telling you it was successful downloading them.

fldash, you don't run UAC right? So you don't know if the Launcher is requiring elevated privileges?
