Cant Install 1.0

[Stinger656]

Hi I am currently trying to install PR 1.0 for BF2 and every time I open the installer .exe i get this error



Any help would be thankful

And I have tried disabling my AV and Firewall before installing it.

I continued the install everything else installed correctly but it also did the same error when trying to update punk buster.

Are you installing from the "prbf2_1.0.29.0_full.iso" file? If so, it may have gotten corrupt somehow. If you don't desire to have to download the whole thing again you could load it into a torrent client and have it just fix the corrupt parts.

If you'd like to manually test "prbf2_1.0.29.0_full.iso" for authenticity, it's SHA1 hash should be dad424af07024ddb8944731a6b01fcfad824cd38, or MD5 64230b50da98c11c5750543646239839.

"\mods\pr\content\objects_common_client.zip" should have a SHA1 of dc27afa322716a5e7b551efaca02bff6a6d20368, or MD5 e4b22b21c5c8457a0a10e65a6fa45884.

The only corrupt file is the one on the screenshot, everything else successfully installed. If there is a way I can just get that one file in place it in there, that would be the easiest I believe.

I don't know where you could get that individual file from. It's also 442MB, so not so small.

Did you check the checksum of the installer archive? Are you installing from the "prbf2_1.0.29.0_full.iso" file? If you are, check that. If that isn't corrupted, yet after install your "objects_common_client.zip" is, then you have other problems there.

I did a force recheck of the mod and it was fine, so i uninstalled and am now re downloading it, ill keep you updated.

[Boris]

Force recheck in BitTorrent? Then the archive should be 100%, as a force recheck should find any error there, assuming it's a half-decent torrent client. You could be wasting your time downloading it again.

You didn't check the checksums I mentioned, did you? Or mention what installation file/method is being used. Sigh...

Make sure you don't have some shitty AV or equivalent software nannying your system when installing that could be interfering with the process.

[Stinger656]

I did the force recheck in bittorrent and it fixed my issue. And no I did not do the checksum sorry but I dont know how .

[Boris]

K, so was the torrent corrupted then?

You could use a program like HashCalc to test those files. I'll take a good while to calculate large files like the installer .iso, but if the result it produces matches what I wrote above, then you can be assured the file isn't corrupt.
