GWX 3.0 install error

vulture42 · 04-12-09, 03:49 AM

Ok, now I tried to install the game. I used not my game pc, I used my laptop.
A clean XP SP3.
Looks like the install exe of gwx is not able to locate the bin files?!
I put the gwx 3 exe in the same folder like the bin 1-7 files? Any help?

Try this version of GWX 3.0 Gold

No bin files, just a 1.4g .exe

Hi vulture42,

looks like one or more of the .bin files is/are corrupted. I recommend a redownload of all files [.bin & .exe] and thereafter do a md5 check.

Hi,
ok here is the result:
I downloades the GWX_full.exe (1,4 GB)
I downloaded it twice on both machines (Laptop and PC)
Same error on both machines....
The original sh3.exe (after the install) has a size of 1.331.200 Bytes
I use a retail version (already patched 1.4b). Maybe GWX can not work with this one?
Can maybe someone check it or send me the patched 1,4b exe so I can run a test with this one?

I got always issues with that single file installer -> wrong md5 checksum.
Did you do a md5 check? The checksum has to be:

d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e

Ok, I 'll check it this evening!

What the best md5 check programm?
I found a few via google...?

For example at bigboywooly's site - it was written by Jaesen Jones and provided with GWX:
