Ok so i followed the readme exactly and when i launch the game nothing changes its all stock still, iv tried combatability mode and nothin, yes ipatched my game to 1.4 before installing mod and yes i put the FOLDER and .bat in ROOT folder, any ideas?

Krabb 03-19-11 05:30 AM

Shazer 03-19-11 03:40 PM

My install worked fine on another comp with window 7 installed. Did you run as Admimistrator?

Shazer 03-20-11 01:32 PM

Krabb 03-20-11 01:54 PM

Hm, root folder of game or disk? Something strange. :hmmm:

Shazer 03-20-11 11:31 PM

Try redownloading the patch and the RA files

I'm running on Windows 7 with no problem whatsoever.

Shazer 03-21-11 11:49 AM

fixed it? apperently my AVG was blocking something, i turned it off and it works now

MR. Wood 06-08-11 09:11 PM

I'm having a problem with my install for some reason it's not installing any graphics at all game crashes on opening movie running as admin all right to mod ok {meaning editing folders} :damn: Keep getting can't open file win 7 64 bit compat mode xp sp 3 for installing evan disabled my avg for install but no joy

Krabb 06-09-11 04:06 AM

Did you run mod install as admin?

MR. Wood 06-09-11 02:28 PM

yes mod install was ran as admin this is driving me nuts I want to play agian on my new cpu

Krabb 06-09-11 02:50 PM

What file can't be opened? Or try redownloading the latest mod version. And I think, AVG should be disabled when running the game, too.

MR. Wood 06-09-11 03:09 PM

it's not able to open graphics files for other objects in game besides brand new models avg is disabled it crashes right after it starts up I downloaded it from Dw wiki tryed to get it from redrodgers link but part 2 fails maybe something s wrong on my end dw works fine with out installed.

Krabb 06-09-11 03:57 PM

I have no idea what could be the problem... Maybe files from that DW wiki are corrupted. Or this is solely win 7 problem. Perhaps you should try reinstalling DW completely, deleting all old files (do not forget to apply patch 1.04).

P.S. Redrodgers links are Ok, you could try later if you want.

MR. Wood 06-09-11 04:09 PM

I think its a problem with win 7 I'm going to play around with it some I have been reinstalling after every attempt which is a pain

MR. Wood 06-09-11 04:16 PM

during install it runs great till open compressing failed to open then compressing done it dose it to all model files for some reason any ideas

Krabb 06-10-11 07:27 AM

Just to be sure, do you extract DWX archive to the game's root folder and run bat file from there (with admin rights, but I already asked this)? Where is your game installed? If C:\Program Files you could try installing it to another folder, e.g. C:\Games. This will deal with the security rules which are more strict for Program Files by default (though, admin rights should be enough to override these rules).

MR. Wood 06-10-11 04:54 PM

got it to work did as you said reinstalled it out side of program files works great thank you
