My lawena seems to not be able to launch tf2, restarting the computer etc did not help and I haven't messed with any settings since downloading. here is a log of the latest session.

This is veery old but a few weeks ago I understood this issue due to the help of another guy with the same issue and it's related to the registry not holding the correct value for the SteamPath, or holding it in a way that's not readable properly by Lawena.

Lawena now has a way to specify a custom Steam path working around this issue.

kayenkayen commented 9 years ago

Could you explain the exact workaround for the SteamPath? I can't find it anywhere. My Steam folder is in D: rather than C: (partitioned harddrive) and I believe that may be what's causing me this problem.

quanticc commented 9 years ago

Let me know if it works.

kayenkayen commented 9 years ago

Thanks for the quick reply! But it hasn't worked, I get the same logs. It also seems to rewrite the settings.lwf after I try to launch so that the line reads the default "SteamDir=c:\ \program files (x86)\ \steam" instead of "SteamDir=d:\ \program files\ \steam" like attempted.

That's because your registry has an invalid value for SteamPath as opposed to having no value saved.

I'll push a fix to work around that in a few minutes. You can also reinstall Steam or go to registry key SteamPath in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam and edit/remove it. Edit: See below

quanticc commented 9 years ago

Ok the fix is live in the preview branch. In case you are not already in that branch follow these steps:

  1. Go to Help -> About menu item.
  2. Press "Select Updater Branch..."
  3. Select "preview-v4.1" and press OK
  4. Restart Lawena

Version should read 4.1.6-4 at the top of the window. Thanks for reporting the problem
