Title: FATAL ERROR: Couldn't load fileSysCheck.cfg...???
Post by: Rattus on December 05, 2017, 08:49:51 pm
When I open Radiant from the launcher, I am greeted by an error message saying
Code Snippet
Plaintext
"FATAL ERROR: Couldn't load fileSysCheck.cfg. Make sure Call of Duty is run from the correct folder. GetLastError()=0 An unrecoverable error has occured. Would you like to edit preferences before exiting Q3Radiant?"
I've been working on my map for 3 months now and it would be a complete waste if I lost all this progress now... can someone please help? I've looked around for solutions, but everyone just mentions to just reinstall the mod tools or the game itself? But this worries me if I will end up losing my map or not...

Does this always happen everytime you open Radiant? If you are going to reinstall you just have to make a backup of your map files in map_source (mapname.map/mapname_patch.map) and your mod files in "mods" and you should be fine to start over.

Yes it barely started happening today all of a sudden and it closes radiant immediately after exiting the error message. Can you please be more clear about what you mean by "you should be fine to start over"? I really don't want to start my map all over again... lol... sorry I'm just really worried right now

Your map file is in map_source, thats all you need and all your custom assets ofc. ( textires / models etc )

1 make sure yours is not pirated version becuase thats how you start playing with the files! Its obvious. 2 go to steam/amazon and see if you have main folder in your library and look for call of duty world at war root now locate 'main' folder And see if steam/amazon provided the iw_00 -> iw_27 is in there. If you dont understand then shit! You dont mod cod at all!!!!!.

I didn't pirate the game, I own it legit on steam. Double Post Merge: December 07, 2017, 05:09:25 amTurns out the problem was i was using the wrong launcher.exe and I was supposed to be using the one in the game dir... *facepalm* Well all is good now thank you guys
