Stainless Steel dows not start after Installation

[Kilmantor]

Hey guys,

so I installed Medieval 2 + Kingdoms over Steam totay. The Main Game + Addon is runnig fine.
Then I installed SS 6.3. + Patch 6.4 in the steam folder under Medieval2/mods and connected it properly as non-steam-game in Steam-Launcher.

But every time I start Stainless Steel now it says: "This game is currently not available: Application running."

I dont get my mistake, what am I doing wrong, can anybody help me?

Thanks,
Kilmantor

When I close the launcher.exe and try to start the game again I get: "Medieval encountered a fatal error...". The launcher crashes but music keeps playing o.O.

IDK bout Steam but for me using Vista I had to turn off the User Account Control settings...shut down my cpu protection which for me was AVG and installl in a directory not under Program Files...SO that meant reinstalling even vanilla MTW2 under a new folder....try that but shut off the cpu protection as a last resort....I still gotta deal with low level cookies always bringing up my warning screen and such even when I have filters designed to block them....but it was worth the minor annoyance...good luck

For some reason, after the newest Steam-Update i connected SS as non-steam-game again and now it works. Maybe the Steam-Update fixed the problem.
