Error messages (1.04c beta)

Sun Jan 25, 2009 8:45 pm

Downloaded the public beta (1.04c) and I now get a host of error messages when starting the application.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I don't think I said yes to the report logs error box, so will try again. But this is the !Main.Log

Aye.

There was an error with area definitions at one point that might seem to be rearing its beauty-challenged head here.

I'm not sure if that's it, and what needs to be done to sort it out, but with the info from the log, someone more informed than me should be able to help you out (or at least further). Thanks for providing it :)

Well tested again and thought I would provide a bit more detail:

Two screenies:

When I press 'no' to the first error box, I get a duplicate box of the first. Pressing 'no' to that brings up the second error box.

If I press 'no' to that one, I get to the scenario select screen, but if I press 'yes' it CtD's (that is only from 2 tests though).

I have not seen or heard of anyone else getting this!

Are you running Vista? This looks a bit like a patch gone astray....

I suggest you completely uninstall and start over with a clean installation.
Be sure to delete the remaining folder before reinstalling.
You can copy your saved games to a safe location, then bring them back once stable.

Even if not Vista, I suggest you install other than in Program Files:

Instructions:

1. If running Vista: De-activate your UAC [how-to at: http://www.ageod-forum.com/showthread.php?t=11621&highlight=UAC ]
2. Uninstall the game
3. Use Explorer to find "Wars in America" folder under Program Files.
4. Delete the "Wars in America" Directory and all it contains [you will lose saved games unless you copy them elsewhere]
5. Reinstall WIA, but change the default directory box to read "C:\AGEOD\Wars in America" [or any hard drive you wish]
6. Download the latest patch from: http://www.ageod-forum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=199
7. Extract the patch file and run it [it shoud automatically go to the "C:\AGEOD\Wars in America" location]
7a. Copy any saved games you moved back into the new installation
8. Run WIA
Always ask yourself: "Am I part of the Solution?" If you aren't, then you are part of the Problem!

Am running XP SP2.

Will try a reinstall.

edit: Though it might be a while before I can get back to you. Having problems reinstalling. The CD just keeps spinning around the drive. No Autorun and going into My Computer and the CD drive and running the setup exe file directly isn't doing anything either.

I am very close to reacquianting my computer with a hammer. Really need a new rig.

In case it helps (i fear it won't :bonk :) just reintalled WIA and patched up to 1.04c beta and everything works OK for me.
NO errors or strange things on the log. :thumbsup:
Damned CD's! :bonk: :D

With the help of a hammer I have succesfully re-installed and patched to the official 1.02c patch (though it states 1.01e on the loading screen) and it works fine.

Ayeshteni

P.S. I may try reinstalling the beta patch to see if I get the same errors, but due to the difficulties with my computer I am a bit wary of doing so. :(

To me, the "wacky" patch numbers makes it sound like things aren't getting installed the way they should :blink:

When you reinstalled, did you delete all traces of the old installation, including installation dir (savegames could perhaps be left behind)? I wouldn't think checking the registry should be necessary, but might also be worth a look?

When you reinstalled, did you delete all traces of the old installation, including installation dir (savegames could perhaps be left behind)? I wouldn't think checking the registry should be necessary, but might also be worth a look?


Well the 1.02c patch worked with no errors (the only point being as mentioned the 1.01e ststed on the loadup screen).

Yes I deleted all traces of the old installation including save files. Didn't delete any registry enties though.

I have had no problems until the latest beta patch. But it seems I am the only one. :bonk:

Ayestheni,

Are you sure you pointed to the right folder on the patch installation??
That you see 1.01e version after patching up to 1.02c looks like you have actually not patched the game right.
Maybe the patch is extracted on another folder. :bonk:
I don't remember having this version quirk when i used 1.02c
Your game can work OK, but probably it is still version 1.01e and not 1.02c and you have not patched the game at all :bonk:

I had get confused on the past with this as, for example, Wars in America installation has a subfolder called WIA inside. But when you patch you have to point (or check the installer points right) to the Wars in America folder, not to the WIA subfolder inside it.
If not the patch will not eb properly installed
Does it makes any sense?? :blink: :wacko:
Regards!

I understand.

However, yes I have patched it to the correct folder.

This is puzzling :(

to be sure, I downloaded patch again from the public forum

then, I followed my own instructions, uninstalled, deleted folder, installed, patched directly to 1.04c

No issues...

I guess we need help from a higher authority.

To be sure, please email the 'AGECrashInfo.zip' from this to support@ageod.com

I'm sorry you are having difficulty :(

Maybe its just that his CD is damaged and installs badly :bonk:
I guess writing to support@ageod.com explaining the issue and giving your details and retail box serial they could provide you with a download link for the digital download installer :thumbsup:

Try this.
Copy the content of your WiA CD to your HD.
Uninstall WiA, delete WiA directory, install http://www.ccleaner.com/ and clean your registry.Reboot your computer.Install WiA from your HD, run (unpatched) WiA. If everything is ok, patch it to 1.04c.

The patch was updated about 7 hours ago by Hok.
Re download to be sure [I tested today with the update]

A single file different, so you should redo it....

AFAIK, nothing to do with Ayeshteni's issues...

Yes,I too get the exact same messege as Ayeshteni, error message sent to you.Completly new install,tried game before installing 104c patch and everything seemed ok.Tried hitting ignore message on error message and game finished loading and seems to play ok,but am wondering if there might be problems later in the game. :confused:

No joy alas. Still getting the errors with the latest betapatch.

Thanks for the CCleaner link though, very helpful. :thumbsup:

What do I need to zip up and send to AGEOD support?

One really stupid question for both of you. Is there a chance that you forgot to exit the game before applying the patch or do you have any of the game files in use/locked while applying the patch ?

Hi Carnium,Whenever I do a patch for AACW or BOA2 I always do a complete uninstall and reinstall,exit the game and then apply patch.Never had a problem before this patch.As I said before though, by hitting cancel on the error message game loads and seems to play ok,Boston graphic change seems fine,but whether I'll have a problem latter I dunno.Right now I,m at turn 4.Great game by the way,not quite as good as AACW,but close.

Ian, Your Crash data made it to support line. :)

My last questions:

What version of basic [starting] setup are you using?
{I am using setup version 1.00b}

Are you patching directly from you base setup, or to another patch, then to 1.04c?


..I'm totally stumped, as It is acting like the patch is not installed correctly or being read properly, but then you seem to be able to play....

I don't even know what to ask for next :( :o

...you are both running XP, and I'm running Vista, so I can't go there....
