Two Disasters - 7/28/2007 9:32:36 AM

Two problems have struck me down. First off, I downloaded the latest patch and now when I hit play I get a message that says "TOAW could not find expected registry information. You may need to reinstall the game." This was horrifying, much like when Gorman lost Apone on C-level. So now I am totally confused.
Secondly I have been playing FitE 7.0 as the Axis. However it is telling me wrong .eqp folder. So I have not really been playing it, the first turn but my opponent can't play his half.
So the biggest issue is I cannot play the game, secondly I have an equipment file issue.
Please help,
Jonny

You're going to have to re-install TOAW and the patches, I'm afraid.

Do a help/about. you are probably playing different patch levels of TOAW.

Let me know if those don't fix things.

Status: offline 		m5000 - For some reason Buzz hasn't posted 7.0 here yet. Maybe he will when he sees this.

Jonny - It's always horrifying when the walls start moving. If you haven't added the files like you see in this screen shot, you should. Initially, you will get the 'wrong .eqp file' message, but from then on you shouldn' get it.



Check out this one to see if it helps with the registry issue.

How do I reinstall the game if I downloaded it?  I'm not going to have to rebuy the game? 

But thanks for the help.

Jon,
I think that 3.1.0.9 is the latest version. If that's true, then you don't need the patches until the next patch is released.

However, posting on a new thread I just ten minutes have encountered a most curious problem.
Please see the other post.
Thanks,
