I've Downloaded PS 1.63 six times and always get this:

c:\Matrix Games\Pure Sim Baseball 2007\HTML\Images\Gamecast.png
A decompression error has occurred (#7)
File CRC Mismatch - Data Integrity Error


Not only that but I'm getting runtime error 429 Active X component can't create object . Every time I try to start PureSim. I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled so many times I've lost count. I've tried PS 1.60 and 1.62 still get RTE 429. I'm tired!

Hey Don,

Does the error give you a file name (.dll or such)  ????

It looks like the upload corrupted that file in the install -- the problem is NOT on your end there. The good news is you can safely ignore that issue as you already have the file.

I have not heard of anyone getting a 429 however. That one is troubling. Are you running Vista?

Shaun Any chance you could just upload needed files. Doing a 182 mb d/l everytime seems excessive.

thanks

You after re-thinking this. I think I am going to go back to the baseline full install followed by small patches. Especially given the amount of releases I expect to do over the summer.

Thanks for getting me to re-think this.

Shaun,

I did a new install and got that file error !
I dont have that file now !

seem to be running ok now though !!?? Is it possible for you to send us this file and insert it in the right place or does the file matter ??

[LetsPlay2]

That file doesn't seem to be affecting anything (Gamecast included)

Played a week and everything seems to be great now.

On with 1929 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Shaun I'm running XP. I've had a RTE 429 off and on for awhile. Reinstalling used to take care of it, but not now. I can't seem to find any way to get into the game. RTE 429 is keeping me locked out.

LetsPlay2, no a file name isn't showing up. Just RTE 429.
Don

OK

OK, Don, I just built you a special version of PureSim that will tell me exactly what file it is causing the issue.

Download this one, and unzip it over your current copy of PureSim2k7.exe (in the "c:\matrix games\puresim baseball 2007" folder)

It should give you an option to email the data it collects from the crash dump. Go ahead and send that my way and I'll have a look. I am 100% sure this is an issue with you XP install, but at least this should help us figure out where to start troubleshooting.

I just finished the v1.63 download (12 hours with dialup). Is it ok to install it or is everyone having the RTE 429 problem after the install?
 
Thanks much - Dennis

[LetsPlay2]

I think the RTE is Don's  I am OK now
 
But mine was different. I think you can install !

[dlh55]

Thanks Myron, I'll get it installed.

My bad. Mis-typed the link

Don, the crash report didn't help that much but it appears some mof the Microsoft data access components may be corrupt on your machine.

Try installing this: http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/d/f/adfdf363-0b09-4f39-bf89-1b4bc234fe97/windowsxp-kb829558-x86-enu.exe

Shaun, that was for an older IE than what I have. But it got me headed in the right direction. So I spent quiet a while on the Microsoft pages looking for a RTE 429 fix. One IE7 repair file helped but didn't completely fix the problem. It did let me get to the crack of the bat before getting RTE429. A few files didn't help at all. Another file was an active X repair for MS Office. After that was loaded I could open the game. I was still getting some errors about opening photo's. Also had problems Configuring Memorial Stadium's Hitting zones (forgot what it is called. Senior moment). Any way at least I can play the game. I sent you a couple of error reports on the photo's and Stadium problems. For a guy who is lousy with software at least I was able to stumble my way back into the game. Thanks for your help Shaun.

I did it that way in the past but in this just makes it more straightforward for everyone and removes a lot of doubt. I totally sympathize with folks that don't have broadband but if you do, this is like 2 minute download.

I'm not trying to be flippant, just saying that this avoids a lot of issues since it will work for everyone no matter what version they are on.

Shaun

2 minute download? How fast is your connection?!?!?!?! It probably will take me 2-3 hours to download that file on my DSL connection. I usually save large downloads like this for when I'm sleeping.

Shaun stated elsewhere that he's considering the "mini-patch" option for upcoming updates. I'm sure most of us are happy to hear that.

The full-on d/l was never a problem for me, as my cable connection allowed me to get it in maybe 10-15 minutes.

However, I had to make sure I renamed my custom music and other items before installing/overwriting.

PS My Pure-Sim game folder (which includes fan-created stadiums, photos, templates etc.) is now a whopping 1.35 GB. [X(]
