(FATAL SCAR ERROR) When Playing First Singleplayer Mission

[007.SirBond]

I have been very excited to play the single player mission when I learned that the USMC was added.

However I was in the middle of the process of migrating to the New Steam Version, and decided it would be better to wait until the developers of Modern Combat updated their mod for the new steam version. Hoping my wait would reduce headaches and less likely to encounter bugs and problems.

I am running it as administrator.

I still got 2 annoying bugs =(

The first is that my infantry are carrying invisible weapons.

The 2nd is the Fatal Scar Error.

I uninstalled the old Modern Combat, and uninstalled the old Relic COH, including Opposing Fronts from my computer. I only have the New steam version along with their DLC packages which should include Opposing Fronts.

I verified my cache files, I am using only *High* Settings in my options so I am clearly using DirectX 9.

I encounter a FATAL SCAR ERROR during the first mission, after the timer reaches zero and I successfully complete the objective, I get this message; "Objective: Press inland and prepare the way for the main assault."

Then I get the brief video of the navel bombardment, the Airborne troops dropping in, and the AAV-7A1 landing on the beach with this message; "Our amphibious assault force has landed. Get them off the beach!"

Then the game gives me the FATAL SCAR ERROR.
Yes I used saved games and reloaded them sometimes due to my friendly AI being retarded and taking stupid paths into enemy contact

This is the log from scarlog.2013-05-28.14-28-23.3

Exactly the same issue here

[I_am_a_Spoon]

We've fixed the SCAR issue, it wasn't anything on your end. Sorry about the hassle.

As for the invisible weapons bug, that's been a pain in the arse since day 1. It happens whenever anyone loads an MC save game and nothing we've tried has fixed it. :/

[007.SirBond]

I downloaded and installed the mod from this link

http://coh-moderncombat.com/?page_id=1111

There doesn't appear to be the launcher as there was in the previous version when using Relics COH.

It use to auto update

How can I update my mod so I can play the fixed SCAR issue version.

[Darkbladecr]

we are still discussing internally how we will be giving out new patches, there is no 1.016 version yet.

[M1GHTY M4VS]

What is the main problem with the launchers, are they unable to keep up the traffic or are they unable to get in a unaccessible mode where you can load up patches and have a subjected downtime for anyone reaching just the update check instead of the launch game itself. Both MC and EF have had launcher issues and only OMG with their core package that is mainly build around their launcher seems to be without much trouble but that even requires full time launcher coding by probably 2+ guys and more with their stats system. If it's for traffic maybe having peer to peer like the former relic dl or torrent can get it done. But I hope it won't mess up the process of incremental and full patches going hand in hand.

[Astrolis]

Am still getting "Fatal Scar Error - Execution Paused" just as the main landings start in the 1st single player campaign mission. Its like a cock tease "Oh you're hard? See you later..."

From the campaign that I've actually been able to play it runs very smooth up until ^^^

[I_am_a_Spoon]

It's bugged for everyone, we've fixed it on our end and it'll work after the next patch.

[Astrolis]

Is there at least an estimated drop date for the next patch?

[I_am_a_Spoon]

Not yet no.
