Title: wont start
Post by: GreekMan on January 13, 2011, 03:47:27 AM
I have a windows 7 and i cant get this to load up. goes to the splash screen but never pops up. I got it to work on my old computer a 2005 one but not on this one. I unziped that minipatch, that did nothing. I placed it under C. that did nothing. can someone please help me? should i change the compatibility? i really want to download a certain region and i need this in order for it to work!!!!

Ah yes, I've had that too, the solution is to move your "my documents" folder to a folder that does not start with the letter "U" (eg: not "Users")

You can also use SC4Terraformer instead.  It can do everything SC4Mapper can and more, plus it isn't as problematic under Windows 7.
