Re: 2.2 beta
Games purchased through Steam are tied to the accounts in which it was bought from.
Furthermore, I own a hard copy of Soulstorm. It's been installed through 3 different computers and each time it still accepts the serial key.

Re: 2.2 beta
So, basically, you used to own a hard copy of Retribution and it doesn't accept your serial key? And did you tinker with the Soulstorm/Ret Folder before?
Re: 2.2 beta
It has a lot to do with it. The mod only works with the latest version of Ret, which you get through Steam. The shortcut also relies on finding the Steam installation.
You either:
1) Know very little about how Steam works and computers in general, and created a new Steam account for your new computer when you shouldn't have. Just go and login to your original account and your problems disappear, the game will be there waiting for you. No need for your pirated version.
2) Are lying. I don't really feel comfortable helping people that won't buy the game and support the developers.
It won't give you the Launch options in the library because the game is not tied to your Steam account (apparently). This means you have two Steam accounts? No idea what is going on here. The shortcut won't work since it has no idea where you installed your pirated copy or if it's even the correct version of the game.

Re: 2.2 beta
only to install the tau mod and wargear mod which work fine but then with those you dont need to mess with launch option thing and yes I do know very little about computers most of the mod installation Ive done has been on Soulstorm . There was an issue with my Steam account a while back where I had to verify it wasn't hacked since my kids would use my account when I'd travel to Mexico and I would also use it around the same time Ive already handled with Steam .Now the original game was installed "C:\Program Files (x86)\\Dawn of War II - Retribution\DOW2.exe" now could that be the issue and if so what can i do

Re: 2.2 beta
Verify? Steam would just send a code like E45G6 etc to your e-mail and from there you just copy and paste it as you log in to your Steam account. And this is usually the case for when you are logging in to your account via different computer/location (I think). Whats so hard with verifying an account?
Re: 2.2 beta
Focus on recovering your Steam account. Will save you so much headache in the future when it comes to future versions etc. It shouldn't be difficult.
Re: 2.2 beta
Ok well thank you for your time and help ,I'll just wait till I get back home (to the US) and run it on my old computer

Re: 2.2 beta
I'm trying to access ELITE from my brother's Windows 8 computer, and everytime I try to open it, it crashes.
He has DOWII Vanilla and Retri installed, not CR, and as the mod install instructions state, I installed it b10 then b11. I installed it into its default installation path, and I've tried executing it from within its install folder, using the -nomovies -modname Elite_beta -dev launch options to no avail.
It simply just launches and goes immediately to the Relic's crash report. I am able to see the DOW II cursor for my mouse for a brief second, but then it goes away. Is there anything I can do?

Re: 2.2 beta
Are you able to run Retribution retail (without the mod) okay? Try verifying the installation (from your Steam library) then reinstalling B10 + B11.

Re: 2.2 beta
Ah, that fixed it.
So his problem was that he never ran retri before he installed ELITE, and it never ran through it's "first play setup". I ran it, it loaded, then I attempted to load ELITE and it worked!
Thanks

Re: 2.2 beta
Are the other games greyed out? Or dont you just see any?
Did you install both beta 10 and beta 11
http://www.dawnofwar.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=166
Did you have another version of ELITE installed before this one?

Re: 2.2 beta
Check if it really says version 2.2 ßeta 11 In the main menu.
Hm.
I'd say remove ELITE manually ( [...] / steam / steamapps / common / dawn of war ii - retribution / ELITE_beta ) and just try to reinstall.

Re: 2.2 beta
I'm trying to install this mod, but the game constantly crash.
From logs is clear that there are no files, uh, parameters of guns, and where are they then? Download all possible repack, but everywhere this error. What am I doing wrong as well?
I have downloaded all the possible versions, but none of them has gone fine, everywhere this error.
post load validate failed in WeaponFamilyBag because the weapon family "weapons\weapon_family\pvp\psycannon_pvp" has no weapon damage bag.

Re: 2.2 beta
Does the vanilla/retail version of the game run without problems?
I think trying to install ELITE if you never ran the base game atleast once before might cause something like that. ( The game does some configurations on the first start up or something )

Re: 2.2 beta
Yeah I had that problem on my brother's laptop and for the longest time could;t figure out why it wouldn't load. Apparently there's some first-run initialization the vanilla client does that makes the mod runnable.

Re: 2.2 beta
I cant seem to download the 2.2 beta patch 3; it says its unavailable.
Any means of getting the patch 3 so that I can be fully updated for the Elite Mod Beta?
