Homefront Installation Issues

Castiel · 12 Apr 2011 at 18:37

I cannot install homefront.

I have W7 64bit, When I try to install Homefront it starts installing C++ 2005 Redistributable and then fails claiming:

"Failed to Run Install Script"

I have UAC disabled, I have installed the C++ from microsoft, yet it still fails time and again.

Any suggestions?

might help depending on how you got it.

Yeah tried that, same problem. It is the retail DVD.

It's on the disk as a stand alone, try running it outside of the install. A reg fix was to run Windows update as well then re run the install program.

I tried the update as well, How do I run it outside the install?

It is not available on Steam for some reason otherwise I would download it and install it that way.

Explore the dvd, its in there as and exe in one of the folders, think its called /dist

Oh right, I tried that as well, same issue.

I'm downloading from steam currently, as EAMES suggested.

It is now working, downloaded via steam like Eames suggested. Now to waste some Koreans...

Thanks guys.
