dean84 · 01-30-07, 01:08 PM

i have recently downloaded the mod from gameshadow, made a nice clean installation of SH3 - and have tried to install the mod, yet it is telling me this:

c:/program files/ubisoft/silenthunteriii/data/sea/NCOT/NCOT.dat

an error occured while trying to copy a file:
the source file is corrupted

any ideas?

Hi, matey, and welcome to the greatest forum since the trial of Socrates in 399 BC!

Have you tried to download it again from Gameshadow? Sometimes it helps to download again, mate..

dean84 · 01-30-07, 01:42 PM

yeh im tryin to redownload it now - this time from 1 of the links on 1 of the topics on this forum - see how it goes - over an hour of waiting time yet again

I WANNA PLAY SUBS lol

Is it GW 1.1a or GWX you're trying to download? If it is GWX you can get if from the link in my signature.

dean84 · 01-30-07, 01:46 PM

thanx, ill see how this one in downlaoding goes now - if i have another problem, ill either throw my pc out the window onto some very unsuspecting passers by - or ill try ur link

n its GWX im downloading at the moment

dean84 · 01-30-07, 05:42 PM

well i succesfully installed it without any problems, but since then, the game loads up to the main options screen, but when trying to load into career, loadin multi player game, or museum - the loading bar reaches approx 90% n then the game completely freezes

so after all day in trying to add this mod, i still cant sink some ships

bigboywooly · 01-30-07, 05:44 PM

Are you sure its frozen
GWX will take longer to load as more units and bigger campaign files
That last bit is always the longest and sometimes seems forever

dean84 · 01-30-07, 05:46 PM

ill leave it for a while - im sure its takin foreva as it is - but ill give it another go

i got my fingers crossed - been loosin my patience all day with tryin to get this to wrk, and bein in and out with wrk

(taxi driver lol)

Have you:

rollbacked SH3Commander before anything else (if you use Commander)?
uninstalled completely SHIII (including deleting the SHIII folder from MyDocs before reinstalling)?
assured you have an absolute clean install?
patched to 1.4b?
checked the download file integrity and run MD5compare to see if all GWX files are good before installing GWX?
