Hey FOF stopped working on me all of a sudden....the only new thing installed recently was Steam, so I could play Skyrim, but I don't see how that could be the problem.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but have the same exact error, does anyone have an idea of how to fix this?

Here is the error message that pops up when trying to launch the game.

Dola,


Found out it was the Zone Alarm update that killed off FOF, so now off to find a different Firewall program.

Wow, how did you find that out?

I have never managed to get FOF 2k7 to run natively in windows 7, so you may be on to something here.

I uninstalled Zone Alarm and FOF launched with no problem at all.

I run in Windows 7, and had been for a while now, but the update to Zone Alarm "claimed" it was needed as my outdated version wouldn't protect me.

It updated, FOF stopped working. Un-installed Zone Alarm, FOF works perfectly, just like it should.

Aston,

Macroguru in one of my leagues (need to give credit to the author) had these tips re: Win7 installs. You can substitute "USFL" with your league name. Hope this helps.


Alright, for those setting up...

Have all the temp directories been set up?

\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2007

in this directory you should have copied over from your install...

\export
\import
\leagues
\universe

In the \leagues folder you will unzip all the league files.

Inside the Universe folder you will want to create a folder called USFL and copy at least your frfoot.fcy and frfoot.fni

In the FOF 2007 folder, you should see the 4 folders. Inside here you will create a text file, copy and paste this

copy universe\USFL\frfoot.fni universe\
copy universe\USFL\frfoot.fcy universe\
copy universe\USFL\citydata.fdt

save the file as USFL.bat

You should be set up to go...
