[Solved] Filefront Download Broken?

(1/3) > >>

sypher:
I've downloaded version 1.005 from filefront but get a bad cab error near the end of the install.  It recurs if I hit retry and it rolls back if I hit ignore.  :(

sypher:
The .0.9.4 versions from the other sites fail on upgrading.

For both of these, the issue is almost certainly that you don't have Windows Installer 4.5:  http://www.microsoft.com/DOWNLOADS/details.aspx?FamilyID=5a58b56f-60b6-4412-95b9-54d056d6f9f4&displaylang=en  This is a free update from Microsoft.

Sorry about this!  I'm talking with the people at Advanced Installer about this, but I don't expect to hear anything more back from them until Monday at the earliest.  Earlier versions of their software didn't work with the patching for some people pre-WI4.5 (as you see), and then around 1.003 or so we updated to their latest version (that came out around the same time), and then now it's giving us this corruption issue with some people pre-WI4.5

It's very strange, since it does not seem to affect all people pre-WI4.5, but it's pretty frustrating for us here at Arcen since it's reflecting rather poorly on us when it does happen.  The WI4.5 update is small and should solve your problem, but we're trying to find an approach that will allow us to fix this without user intervention...

Thanks for your patience on this, and thanks for your interest in the game!

Installing WI 4.5 worked.  Thanks for your quick reply.

Glad to hear it!  And no problem -- thanks again for your interest!
