Probs installing 1.40

Recommended Posts

When I install the new patch I get several "Errors found in" just about every missionfile as well as in the addon files.

Any ideas?

No! There are warnings and there are errors.

Consider reinstalling OFP from scratch. Several people here and on the UseNet OFP NG have reinstalled and no longer received the messages when upgrading to version 1.40.

Search The FAQ for "reinstall".

When i first tried to patch to 1.40 it denied me becuase my config.bin was missing, I had to reinstall.

I had the same problem, but noticed that the mission files it didn't like were ones I had downloaded, not ones that came with the game. Does this make sense?

I've had to re-install with every patch. I get errors at each patching. I don't use any unofficial addons either.

With v1.4 I got a CRC error with the 1985.pbo or something like that. I hit ignore and it finished, but I'm going to re-install anyway.

Same thing here.. and I never have gotten any errors when upgrading.. If i reinstall then I will lose the red hammer addon which i downloaded. And I shouldnt have to pay another 7 dollars to reinstall it.

Red Hammer is a bunch of .PBO files that you can save off to another directory and put back after reinstalling -- AvonLady's FAQ probably covers the list of files:

I did it again and just kept clicking ingnore at each error and it eventually said installed successfully. Played with it with no probs. Says it is 1.40. Didn't notice any changes except minor obvious thinngs to multiplayer. The files i noticed as causing errors were campaign files and the stock single player missons.

Mister Frag is right! Search The FAQ for "backup red hammer".
