OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Crashes while running autoscheduled bouts

OK, so I went into my animations folder and renamed the corrupted (the bottom half of the frame looks like static) b2_p3_b1_block.png image. Then I copied an uncorrupted "block" image and renamed it "b2_p3_b1_block.png".

I closed the animations folder, then reopened it. The renamed image was corrupted.

Then, I unlicensed the game, and uninstalled it.

Then I downloaded TBCB 2.5 again, reinstalled it, and relicensed it.

When starting up the newly installed game for the first time I got the message "Error! Unable to open target file."

I looked at the animations folder again, and the "new" b2_p3_b1_block.png animation image is corrupted.

So, my problems are:

1) crashes while running autoscheduled fights, and

2) an "unable to load" error message while 'fighting out' fights because the animation frame b2_p3_b1_block.png is corrupted for some reason.

Frustrating.

I realize that computer simulations are very complex animals. But, having bought 2.5 when it came out, and finally having some free time to play it, I was hoping to finally begin doing so.

I appreciate Andreas' hard work on the game, but I will be very, very glad when he is able to devote some time to TBCB trouble-shooting.

TBCB 2.5 is, at least right now on my computer, barely playable.
