Not sure why, but when I launch song of syx, I keep getting this error message.

CORRUPT DATA!

Directory missing \campaigns C:\Users(insert path to data folder)

The file directory does not exist. Try to reinstall the game.

I've reinstalled the game, and have tried some troubleshooting, but I keep getting the same message.

Just to be clear, no installation is needed, you just unzip the whole folder and put it somewhere on your computer. The result should look like this:

What OS are you on? If you're on windows and running the .exe try to right click it and run as administrator.

If your on Linux/mac try running the corresponding script.

Hope it helps!

I'm using windows 10, and I found out how to fix it. Just make the folders that it says is missing and it launches, but should I worry about the missing folders? The folders that were missing were campaign and temp in the data folder, and mods in the resource folder.

Same for me, I get the same error message. Tried unzipping the folder multiple times and run as administrator, no change. Windows 10.

Very strange. The files and folders are all there when I zip /unizip it. It could be that I'm using WinRAR to compress the folder. I'm going to switch to .zip and this might help. Uploaded now.
