Did you do a system wide install then? When did you get the path error?

That was with the demo; I don't remember it asking me whether I wanted a local or systemwide install, it was all local.

(Also, when installing the full Version, I made a "home directory" install instead of a system-wide install, because I wasn't sure whether the game would look in my home directory for new maps and stuff; should I go back?)
If you want the maps in your home directory, then you must do the local install. So it looks like you chose correctly.

OK, that was my guess. It's too bad that the game won't support both system-wide and local maps, though (OK, I'm the only real user of my PC, but still).

One other thing I noted is that the game only asked for the key code when I launched it, not on install. Would that be the same on a system-wide install (thus allowing each user to have his own key code, hopefully making TCP/IP MP on a single machine possible)?
