Hello @EXDYahir !

The message that you have received recently on the launcher refers to the Launcher files location - directory. Well, the launcher now will not accept the following directories :

(X is the drive that has the OS like C or D, if this last is a primary drive).

X:\Program Files X:\Program Files (x86) X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\Downloads X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\Documents X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\Desktop X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\Video X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\Music X:\Users(ActualAccountonyourpc)\OneDrive ..... That's why we recommend first to : 1 - Create first of all a folder on your actual drive that has the OS. If C: is your actual Drive that contain the OS, create a folder called by : SBRW or SoapBox Race World. Make sure it looks like the image on this link : https://imgur.com/a/mXgccEu.

2 - On that SBRW Folder that you have just created, make sure you create 2 other sub-folders : one goes for the Launcher Files (that you will extract it via the Release.zip) and the other goes for the GameFiles (It will get download via the Launcher).

3 - Extract the Release.zip into the Launcher Folder, and run as Administrator the GameLauncher.exe . ----> Note : It may ask you to download some additional componements, you should let it and accept that, because some important things wasn't installed on you pc.

4 -Once you choose the server, and the launcher will appear on it complete form in front of you. Go on the launcher settings (It looks like a gear icon), then, look for Change GameFiles Path. This step will let you change the GameFiles directory, Make sure you choose The GameFiles folder that you have created it on X:\SBRW. Click on save to save your changes, and restart the Launcher.

I guess, this is the right solution for you. Inform me if it worked for you. Kind Regards, Mr.Elite.
