Title: CE 7.63 Bug -> pls help :)
Post by: headless on November 11, 2005, 11:07:29 pm: Here is my problem - After reinstalling the whole game i installed CE 7.55 and the game started perfectly, than i updated it to 7.63 and the following message appeared - game.exe - corrupted file. I deactivated the mod and D2:LOD started without any problem. So am i making a mistake with the install or the update is damaged ? Please reply

Post by: webwalker on November 12, 2005, 05:20:00 pm: How did you verify that the 7.55 started correctly? Single Play? Just trying to make sure we're on the same page...
I've had Windows (98SE) mess up files without explanation, and have had to re-install applications and drivers before...

So: You started with a clean install of D2LOD version 1.10?
Then installed the CE 7.55 Mod?
Then activated it?
Then played it (probably single-player, I don't know of a game server running 7.55)?
Then over-wrote files from the 7.63 .zip file (without de-activating mod)
Then 7.63 failed to run? (game.exe corrupted)
But if you deactivate the mod D2LOD runs fine (single player since battle.net is now 1.11)?
==>What do you do for the LOD CD in the drive while you play

The .zip file full of files *must* be installed over the *activated* mod. (*open* beer, *then* drink).

What does the language of my cd has to do with the error ? I have tryed multiple times reinstalling the game and the mod and the error is always the same...

Post by: ChaosEmpire on November 15, 2005, 11:17:04 am: when you own english cds, i dont believe any issue with game.exe when you use a unmodified version of lod 1.10

Post by: headless on November 16, 2005, 08:38:55 am: I don't know what you believe but the true is that there is aways an error - game.exe or sometimes chaosempire.mpq corrupted :)
