M2TW installation problem

**Smooth-Bore Slim** · July 20, 2012, 08:15 PM

When I run the installer eventually this will pop up after I type in the discs game code.

Feature transfer error

Feature: English
Component: english game
File: D:\m2tw\Disk1\data2.cad
Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).

Once this had occured the installer closes.

It's either a very dirty disc or a bad disc.

Clean it up real good and check it for fingerprints, dirt, food, scratches, etc.

Thanks I am now reinstalling it after cleaning it. I have installed it before with no problems in the past however this time something went wrong.

Problem resolved.

When I load a battle after the loading screen for a spilt second there is half of the battle map and half darkness and then the game closes and tells me a unspecified error has occured. This seems to be a problem in all the kingdom expansions except the Americas.

OK. First off - please stop bumping this thread. You have a perfectly good thread in the the M2 Tech Help Forum to post this problem. You've gotten good advice there before. Please use that thread instead. Endlessly bumping this thread will get you nothing as this thread doesn't have the particulars of your problem. Without that info you're just banging your head against a blank wall as we have no idea what you're talking about....

Secondly - you had a CRC error before but reported that you resolved the issue. Now you're reporting a crash after attempting to load a battle. Is this a vanilla install of M2 or are you using a mod? If a mod which one?

To add - what patch version are you on for M2 and Kingdoms? Be aware that the two should be reporting two different patch versions - Creative Assembly's patch structure can be arcane at times.

Lastly - please add your DxDiag log to your original post. Maybe there's something to be seen there.

I'll ask for this to be merged with your other thread as that's your best chance at getting this solved. Good luck!
