I'm re-installing H&D 2, but I keep running into an error when installing Sabre Squadron. At 65% completion it tells me 'Error 1305. Error reading from file C:\Program Files\Illusion Softworks\Hidden & Dangerous 2\LangEnglish.dta. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.' It gives me the option to retry or cancel - when I click retry it proceeds with the installation, but when it reaches 100% the same error message reappears. Funny thing is the message seems to suggest the problem is with a file already on the C disk. But native H&D runs fine. It's probably a problem with my SS disk since it's pretty scratched from all the hours of use it got before.
I don't know what to do, if my copy of SS is just buggered or it's the LangEnglish file in which case I could maybe download that from someone. Why the fuck does SS have 2 disks by the way? At no point during the installation does it ask for Disk 2...
Installation Error with LangEng.dta file
Re: Installation Error with LangEng.dta file
Success! I tried defragging the HD and then reinstalling H&D 2. That still didn't work, still had the same problem, so I tried installing it in English (United States) instead of English (United Kingdom) and it installed fine.
Strangely enough installing it in US English also meant that it asked for Disk 2 after about 60%. I guess both my UK English language file and the installation file were fucked somehow.
