Star Wars Empire at War Forces of Corruption

[Bean Delphiki]

Ok, I have Windows 7 professional 64-bit. I have tried all of the above methods and in each one I have been stopped by some error message or other. Please help!! I love FoC and I really want this to work on my new computer.

Addendum: I posted earlier that with all the above fixes, i could not get it to work. I went on a different site, and then tried the VISTA patch instead of the Windows 7 patch and now it works...

link to vista patch: LucasArts.com | Star Wars: Empire at War Forces of Corruption

not sure why this worked. I have a windows 7 64 bit professional, so.... whatever. im just happy it works. enjoy!

Getting FoC multiplayer to work on Windows 7

I really appreciate you providing the solution guys, but I've one question about it: If you download the patch, does that mean you can no longer play with people that don't have the patch? For instance, if I was using Vista or Windows 7 (with the patch) and a friend was using an older OS, could they still connect and play with me? I have gotten the patch to work for single player on my Windows 7 operating system thanks to you guys. Just trying to get this thing to work. We're attempting to connect via LAN btw. Thanks a million.

I had this original problem, so i downloaded the unofficial Vista patch and now im getting a different error. Instead of the black screen, it has the EAW logo(dont know why) then it minimizes and a white box pops up saying that it has stopped running. I'm running Windows 7 64bit, anyone know why this isnt working?

Guys I've had the same problems as everyone else after installing the official RAM FIX patch. After installing the patch, right click the launcher then click troubleshoot compatiblily. when you get to that windows select windows vista service pack 2. I had this version and it works. I launched FOC and got into the game.

Ermmm... Help

Okay, so I bought Star Wars: Empire at War Forces of Corruption, it worked fine on XP (Bugged with some mods) But now I have a Windows 7, and when I try to install it says ''Feuture Transfer Error''

Feuture: IS_STRING_NOT_DEFINED
Component: UnCabbedAppComponent
File: D:\swfoc.exe
Error: Data Error (Cyclic Redundancy Check)

Help please!

Sounds corrupted.

 

[Johnythe]

Ermmm... Help

Then... what should I do?

 

[Johnythe]

Hmmm... I've got a plan now >:3 Il'l dl a free version if pos, then I go to the shop in this week and ask them to repair the CD

 

[Richardc269]

It's probably a scratch on the CD then, if it's scratched.

 

[Johnythe]

Well, It was when I looked at the CD... So... I guess that's the problem..

 

[Richardc269]

More than likely. You can try to get it fixed, but chances are it's too screwed up. Only other option is buying it (unless you saved a copy).

FoC Vista Patch

Just wanted to pop in and say THANK YOU. I have been frustrated to no end with the expansion and my install of Win 8 Pro x64. Not the first game ive run into needing a patch for x64 but i thank you all sincerely for your testing and success. I know it's time consuming and frustrating...or can be So if someone come's across this and has windows 8. give the Vista patch a run. Works perfect for me.

I know that is is SUPER old, but after downloading the Vista patch, what do I do? How does one "manually" patch the game? Do I have to put the .rar file somewhere specific? Any help would be appreciated.
