Config Utility Issues

If the config tool fails to launch with a "Can't find Steam" error message, simply restarting Steam should fix that.

If the config tool freezes at one point while gathering system information on your first launch, try the following;

First of all, try to simply locate the JadeEmpireConfig file in the game's Steam directory (usually found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jade Empire), right click>properties>compatibility and set it to compatibility mode for Windows Vista SP2.

If this fails to fix the freeze, you must do the following;

Using notepad, create a blank text file. Name it SystemInformation.xml and save it in the data folder inside the Jade Empire folder (usually found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jade Empire\data). Then, copy the Steam.dll file from the base Steam folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam) and copypaste it into the Jade Empire folder (NOT the data folder). This will effectively bypass the config tool which should allow you to launch the game.
