SWBF2 Conversion pack 2 problems

Post by Calranthe »

Hello all,
Let me first make something clear :), I don't blame the pack on this its something i'm missing or not setting right, i'm just asking for help figuring it out.

Installing on vista home premium 64, (custom gaming pc)

Problems no kotor maps show up, the new hud doesn't show up, have problems joining games with people who have the pack.

It installs fine no problems on wifes pc (vista 32, gaming pc) so I know its not the pack.

What i've tried:
Automatic install (with admin rights) 3 times (each time a clean install as in uninstall and delete directory)
Manual install 3 times same clean install.
I have even deleted my swbf2 directory and copied over my wifes swbf directory in its place which I hoped would fix it, it didn't :/

The only thing that doesn't seem to install or try to install is the 1.3 patch part is this automatic or are you suposed to see a console etc for it ?

Now as im typing this i've installed a temp xp hd into my system to see if that will work but i'd much prefer running it on my primary vista :)

Hey not like I haven't tried lots of things, i'm probably being dumb :)

The problem your post suggests is that the 1.3 patch (another mod packaged with this) hasn't installed correctly. The self-extracting .exe that the Pack uses to install should autoinstall the 1.3 patch, however, there were some problems reported getting this to install on some PCs.

Before you harangue yourself over trying to install this three or six more times, go ahead and try to install the latest 1.3 patch (there was a revision/full install released after the Pack's release). You can either install the full (comes with 1.2 visually updated stock sides) install or the lite install:
Full install
Lite install

If that doesn't work, please update us here. Make sure to read through our Release Thread for the pack as well as the threaded comments on the 1.3 patch's link (most pertinent comments are on the full version's page, functionally there is no difference between full and lite).
