Hey! I saw many people struggling with the install of RAW. I have a remedy that works for Steam at least. Most confusion I believe is due to some spelling or logic errors in the installation quide. It say's 2 different places to install the exe file, but Z also told the right way in the comments also (install in Foc folder which has swfoc.exe in it)
Here we GO!
These instructions are for steam version but the order of the folders should be quite right. Since you only need the FOC folder.!
(At least for steam; Some one clarify if I'm wrong that it works the same with disc version) How I installed RAW (steam):
So basically just put everything to the Foc base folder..
Unrar Mods folder from Republic_at_war.rar to
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\star wars empire at war\corruption"
so that THE "Mods" folder merges with the existing "Mods" folder.. (<-edit to clarify)
Then initiate the .exe file. And when it asks for the installation folder choose the folder which has swfoc.exe in it. And that is the same folder as before.
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\star wars empire at war\corruption"
The installer will add "\data" automatically in the rear!!
(So if you select the data folder it will accidentially put it in the "\corruption\data\data" which is wrong!!)
If done right..
It will state the path as:
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\star wars empire at war\corruption\Data"
Install!
DONE.
It works!!
Profit!
For steam version:
All you have to do is add to the eaw properties -> set launch options -> MODPATH=Mods\Republic_At_War
Run Foc as usual, It'll start RAW..
