Yeah, this is in the wrong forum grouping, but I left that alone unless someone wanted to move it. I want to do whatever works, I will try one or the other. I will try both and see what sticks You feel me ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game Master GM Manga Posted March 12, 2021 Game Master Share Posted March 12, 2021 2 hours ago, Voltak said: WE MADE LOTS OF PROGRESS !! However we are now at this other point If you get one of these, try moving the /Applications/coh folder somewhere else and then running the installer. Let it create what it needs to, and then let the HC Launcher install and download what it needs. After that, copy your extra files back (costumes, etc). Mac expert and designer of LaunchCat.

Well the HC Launcher is much easier to deal with for sure, so go back to the older M1 guide. Delete the Applications/coh folder and Applications/Island Rum.app before proceeding with the install. I'm confident in That guide being pretty clear to follow.

At this point, I'm gonna steer them to the HC Launcher guide post cleanup.

That said, I Know there is at least one configuration file somewhere as the game has been remembering local settings even after I do that in the HC Launcher.
