This is what I have read everywhere in my searches but doesn't work for me. I set the exe to for SC1 and FA to run in compatibility mode XP SP3 and set to run as admin (tried a number of combinations). I also tried deleting my preferences file and my game cache folder at: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\SupremeCommander and even deleted the exe file, verified game cache to download the exe again to not success.

I was able to play SC1 just a few days ago but now when I try to run the game either through Steam or from the exe it starts a new process in task manager but nothing happens. Very frustrating.

My problem is with the original SC and I have a FA folder but not a SC folder and there is not a log :/

reddev32 · 03-20-2012, 01:51 PM

Fa works fine but sc does not

wtf make sure you run sc in compatability mode Xp service pack 3 other than that i have no idea at all any more

Fick · 03-20-2012, 06:12 PM

Its strange because a lot of people have the same issue almost at the same time, maybe something changed in the steam version?

And yeah I tried compatibility mode.

zippythezip · 03-20-2012, 09:27 PM

Mine works fine, win 7 64 bit, ati 6850.
Have not done anything, no compat or admin.
Used box cd key and installed via steam.

reddev32 · 03-21-2012, 12:58 AM

Fick · 03-21-2012, 05:57 AM
