System error has appeared. Do I need to reinstall the game ?
If so which order do I reinstall , FoGII, Age of Belisarus,Immortal Fire,Legions Triumphant,Rise of Persia,Wolves at the Gate, updates, is 1.5.28 the only updated required ?
Thanks
Brian

1) Install FOG2 using the latest full installer:
[PC] Installer v1.5.12
from the Members area.
https://www.slitherine.com/member/downl ... f-glory-ii
You must run this version of the installer, not an earlier one.
2) Then run the updater:
[PC] Update v1.5.28
from the same place.
You don't need to separately install the DLCs, just enter their serial numbers - using the drop down menu in the installer.

Do I have to run the Uninstall first to clear the old corrupted files RBS ?
I tried reinstalling over the top but the same problem occurred.
Thanks

Yes.
I am surprised that the installer let you install over the previous build.

you wont be able to uninstall if you have gone over the top, as it's won't have saved the installer information, only option is a manual delete then reg clean remebering to do the save folder and settings in the documents folder

How do I reg clean ?
Where do I find the documents folder and what do I do with the save folder & settings ?
Thanks

depends on what you want from the save folder tbh, that's you choice on what to back up, for me, i save nothing, no settings or anything, as one i don't play multiplayer and have nothing atm saved eg games in progress

Thanks for all your help RBS & Zakblood.
I have found the problem and have FOGII running again.
How, I have not the faintest idea, there are two FOGIIs installed, one is inside Mare Nostrvm and is the one that works.
I only discovered it this evening.
Somehow or other my Slitherine Folder where all my games are has been corrupted.
I will delete the non functioning version of FOGII.
I have tried to uninstall some of the other games to no avail.
I also found the original Pike & Shot game buried inside the FOGII which is inside the Mare Nostrvm.
Totally weird indeed.
