Elite mod doesn't launch

Postby Blood Dragon » Fri 18 Apr, 2014 12:34 am

Hello, recently i downloaded Elite mod (2.2 beta 10 and beta 11). I installed them in right order in DoW 2 folder (my Retribution is on D\Steamgames). But when i tried launch it from desktop shortcut it showed steam msg that game is launching, but then msg dissapeared and nothing happened. I tried this solution: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/DoW2El ... 066836066/ - but it didn't helped me, is there any way to six this issue?

Make sure the mod installed into the right location.
In your dow2 - retribution folder should be a folder called ELITE and/or ELITE_beta, check if they are there.

Does your base/retail game work?
You have to run DoWII Retribution atleast once for the mod to work.
So if you just freshly installed the game, that might be the reason.

1) Mod installed in right location (my game on D and mod i installed on D)
2) I have 2 folders. First - "DOW 2 - ELITE", in this folder locates folders: Elite_Beta and game assets.
3) Yes my retail works fine.
4) I have more than 250 hours played in Retribution, so i didn't just freshly instaleed the game.

Unless Im understanding you wrong: I think this might be the problem.

Elite_beta ( and propably GameAssets too ? ) should be right in your dawn of war ii - retribution folder.

( steam / steamapps / common / dawn of war ii - retribution / Elite_beta )

If your Elite_beta is in a DOW 2 - ELITE folder, then well...

a "DOW 2 - ELITE" folder shouldnt even exist.
