Launcher will not UPADATE. [E7] error??

  • Hey All. Have not played crossfire since 1.9 over a year ago, and seeing 2.0 I decided to give it a go being such an amazing mod.


    I followed instruction to the letter. Fresh install of everything.


    I launch the .exe, and it brings me to the crossfire launcher (as it did before in 1.9). Only now I get an error at the bottom saying "ERROR LAUNCHER UPDATE [E7]. Server status is green. If I press single or multilayer it just greys an does nothing.


    I have tried doing another fresh install, but have the same error again. Thoughts or suggestions?? I tried to search the forum for this error, but to no avail.


    Thanks all.
