Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
I'm having troubles geting the installer to work properly. (I re-installed f4 for SP3.)I believe I didn't uninstally it correctly. When i run the program it asks me where the theater has been installed and wants to uninstall it. Of course, I can't find where the Europe theater is because it hasn't been installed. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
DDeuce,
After poking around a little, I think I found why it won't show up on the theater UI page.
In the Falcon4 folder (or wherever you installed Falcon) there is a file called "theater.lst". You can open it with notepad and edit it. It is a list of known theaters. For some reason, the only one in there is Korea. Type in a line as follows: terrdata/theaterdefinition/europe.tdf
It should show up on the UI then. Now if I can find what is causing the CTD, I'll fly a mission or three.
Good luck,
Beetle

Just go ahead and click OK to let it uninstall the theater, then just run the installer again. Kinda the long way to do it, but it works.
As for where it is installed, I assume it installed it into Microprose/Falcon4. It did for me anyway.

Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
I wish it was that easy. The thing is... It's not installed ANYWHERE on my hard drive. I believe i just uninstalled it incorrectly the 1st time and now it is giving me slack.quote:Originally posted by beetlebailey:

When I click the next button a messsage box appears saying, "European folder is not installed in the default F4 location. Select the location of the SP2Xinstallation. Do you want to select another folder?"
If I click yes.. it asks me to chose another folder. If I click no.. it closes the program.
Snake Man,
Yes, I did install an earlier version of the european theater. But.. I GUESS I didn't uninstall correctly. So now when I try to Install the new version (???) it asks me to uninstall (which I cannot do) EVERYTIME.
Thanks again,
Doze

Now I understand. Sounds like the one you had on there earlier has left pieces of files on your PC. Most likely in the register. Now it is seeing those pieces and thinking you have the entire theater still there. If you don't have RegCleaner, or something similar you might find it using regedit, but you'll have to hunt around in there for it. Could get dicey, so be careful. Don't delete anything you're not sure of.

Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
Snakeman,
I just installed SP3 according to the manual. My platform is Win ME, I have a Gateway Essentials 700 with a Celeron 733 proc.,a 40gb HD, 384mb RAM, and a cheap Intel Vid Card. (Sorry, don't know the specs on the card, and I'm scared to look.)
If it would help I could send you, or post a crashlog.

Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
I finally have the problem solved. It involved the solution in the faq about removing all the sp2 europe theater registry keys, and it worked!
Thanks much for your help Beatlebailey and Snake Man.

Re: Falcon Euro Theatre Beta Help
Okay, I am closer. I added "terrdata\theaterdefinition\europe.tdf" to the theater list. Now when I go to the theater switcher I see the European theater with the words "Dont we need European Switch Art "
I am getting closer. What I do not understand is that I had no problems or crashes loading the patch.
Thanks
H2
P.S. There has never been any previous theaters installed. I am perplexed??
