desertfox 2 Posted February 22, 2007 Sounds like the file optika_stryker_gunner.p3d got corrupted, most likely while downloading or copying it. If you google for "preNLOD" you will get more people with the same error. Worth checking out maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertfox 2 Posted February 22, 2007 UPDATE: Did some digging and it might turn out to be defective RAM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stingfish74 0 Posted February 24, 2007 im getting the same error too, just out of the blue. game ran fine last night, not change made to files and this AM im getting the error. what do you mean by defective ram? and how can i fix this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertfox 2 Posted February 24, 2007 I found a similar error in an OFP forum: Quote[/b] ]I did what I was supposed to do, but when I try to start OFP, I get this error message: Warning: preNLOD format in object data3d\obloha.p3d Any ideas? And the solution here: Quote[/b] ]Nevermind, I found out what I did wrong. I tried to copy all of the new models into the pbo at the same time. I tried copying the files one at a time and now everything works. In this case the guy is refering to an addon he downloaded and installed. What was important to know now: - Does your error message say Optika_Stryker_gunner.p3d too ? - Where did you have the game from .. CD or Downloaded version ? *EDIT* Everything I found on the internet indicates corrupted files. Mostly through corrupt downloads, during unzipping or in one case through defective RAM. One of the following should fix the problem: - Uninstall game, defrag your harddrive, re-install game - If you have the downloaded version, try downloading it again - If that does not help try installing the game to a different partition to exclude HDD failure.

Sled88 0 Posted February 25, 2007 Well this error message appears in the pc-action team... i send them our mod V.I.R.U.S.... but the strange thing is... no one of the 8 testers got this error-message... only the pc-action staff... they tried it with version 1.00, 1.01 and 1.02... but everytime the same shit... I gonna get grey hair... is there any solution for this? ahhh and there is another thing. I packed it with a installer. Maybe I should try to send them a .rar-file??? Ahhh and it seems the complete tracked.pbo is shit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertfox 2 Posted February 25, 2007 Affirmative. Definitely try re-packing it into RAR and re-sending it to them. As I've said, I think the files simply got corrupted during packing or transfer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rusty_FinP 0 Posted March 7, 2007 I have a fresh install of windows xp sp2 and a fresh install of arma euro version. Before my windows reinstall, i couldnt even start the game. now however i get: Warning: preNLOD format in object ca\plants\palm_01.p3d straight after the three intro screens are shown and program crashes to desktop.

desertfox 2 Posted March 7, 2007 Corrupted file. - Downloaded ArmA version => Re-download it. - Installed from CD => Re-install it. In any case you should do a Checkdisk, might be a foulty HDD sector. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
