EW startup endless loop

Recommended Posts

Starting today, when I go to load EW with LW installed, when I choose EW on the startup window Steam thinks for a while... then just loads the popup again. EU works fine, but I don't have LW installed on it!

 

EDIT: I found two .exes in binaries/win32/, "XComEW" and "XCOMLauncher". Both of them just come up with the same old popup that lets me select EW, then brings up the same popup. I have tried replacing "XComEW" with the LW Backup from /Long War Files but it had no effect.

 

Also note, I've been running LW successfully for about a week.

Have you recently added TexMod or nTex or any other texture replacer? It sounds like you renamed the wrong file as part of that process. If so, see the wiki article "Modifying Textures". It covers how both those binaries interact in detail and should help you figure out what went wrong.

 

Otherwise, we need more details.

 

Whenever something that was working correctly stops doing so, always suspect anything you recently changed in the interval. This includes official patches from any source. (Every computer system is a unique challenge.)
