ok Update:

 

I downloaded the update and now when I run el.exe I get a screen with all kinds of symbols - looks like symbols and drawings from in the game - still it doesnt run the game tho.

 

Any idea again?

wtf? its doing the same thing to me and its not just a bunch of symbols, what it is is the textures graphics.....every time i click el.exe it just pulls the textures graphic up in the window

Oh, and when i try to run the map editor it just comes up in black and white only? any help would be great so i can start up on the new system...

did you unzip it properly? Keeping the file directory structure intact?

Well im not sure what the problem was but i have ran el just fine for the last 3 updates, and when i did this one it just went crazy....i just deleted and redownloaded everything and it works now. so try that brainstorm...delete all your el files and redownload the game then redownload the update and try that.

That tells me you didn't extract and keep the folder information, or you downloaded the update into a new directory and don't have all the files. Remove everything and to a fresh full install and make sure that you keep the directory structure.
