Error: Cannot load oob data?

Post by Knu »

Hi

As it seems that no one reads the Mega Campaign section, I thought to put my question here also, if anyone could help. I would really like to get going with the Mega Campaigns, but...

Finally thought to buy the General's Edition, just for those Mega Campaings.

But what do you know, it seems that I cannot get the campaigns working. I tried to start the Watchtower campaign, but run into troubles when choosing Tulagi.
Error: Cannot load oob data appeared and the game crashed to the desktop.

After few attempts the game started and I was able to finish the first scenario, but when trying to move to the second one, the same error appeared and now I cannot get the game working anymore, no matter how many tries.

Any ideas what might be wrong? I applied the 8.3 patch and the 8.4 on top of that. Haven't really tried it without any patches, but it kind a sucks if I cannot get the game patched up.

Does your problem occur only with the Tulagi option?

Do you have backed up OOB's from version 8.3?

If so, try replacing the files OOB75 and OOB83 with your version 8.3 files. It could be that modifications to the v8.4 files have made them incompatible with the mega campaign.

The OOB files are found in the main directory of SPWAW.
They struggled with a ferocity that was to be expected of brave men fighting with forlorn hope against an enemy who had the advantage of position......knowing that courage was the one thing that would save them.
