  • Try reinstalling windows installer.

    Windows installer 4.5 is the latest for XP.
    Just google it.
  • what about my problem guys when i start the game and HGW loads its stop in STep 3 and still that for 1 :2 min then it said : Failed to connect to server : W[2003]L[0]
    My windows : 8.1
  • Try reinstalling windows installer.

    I have Windows XP SP3 5.1
  • So, from what i've been seeing. Back-up files with "D" at the end contains files that needed to "Merge" with existing ones and back-up files with "N" at the end contains complete/full files. On a side note, the reason as to why 1N never finished extracting was because CF's patcher's coding sucks.

    With that said, if the theory is correct then by doing the following we will be able to get past this 1N.cab crap:

    1) extract 1N.cab and copy, paste, and overwrite the contents in their respective folders. This one is easy.

    2) since most, if not all of us get 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D. We will need a donor who had already successfully updated CF to give us the updated files and folders in those ( shouldn't be more than 200mb total). The files' names are contained in the "Required files.txt" :http://www.mediafire.com/download/z5f2aznqsjppss3/Required+files.txt

    3) after we got our hands on the required files, extract and paste them into crossfire's folder, and everything should work.

    So ummmm, can someone please donate us your files? o3o

    Edit: typoes

    Your theory is half correct. Yes, at the end of the extraction progress, it will merge the files together to use it to patch the game. However, if we are unable to extract the files, how is it supposed to merge the files?

    can you be more confusing what the hell is this?
    how do you extract this?
    where exactly in the crossfire folder would you paste this>?
    is it the text inside we need to paste or just the whole folder can you be more specific :/

    because 1N contains updated files, so we only need files from 2-5, the names are included in the txt file I typed up. If we got those files then we can jsut copy and paste those, along with the extracted files from 1N. This should work. It's like manually update the game

    PS: you can extract .cab with winrar

    Even though this may be able to fix it, it'll probably won't work. I learned a fact that the patcher will remove/modify/create a new copy if it sees a change in the REZ file, so no matter how many times you change it, it will keep doing 1/3 of the options I just mentioned. Unless someone knows how to prevent the patcher from doing that. And what will we do of the RF017? It is the main problem of the extraction. If I delete/modify it, it will just re download another copy of it. I cannot even modify the 1N file (add, delete or extract) so we are stuck in one damn eternal loophole of doom

    that's why in the txt I included version.dat since this is the thing that cf patcher used to identifies our version and do this:
    current version -> download crc check for files (namely rezs) of that version -> if all matches -> download update files
    -> if some mismatch -> download "N" type of update.

    So in theory if we update the version file too along with all the cesspool of file. It will not redownload, at the very least 1N.

    Pff.. I already replied to ur thread and I Found out ur problem, disable your antivirus or add CF to its exception list. Now where's mines? Exactly, you can't solve it, since your already at HGWC there is 0% you have the corrupt REZ files we have. End of story. U a big liar :(
  • Now be a civilized citizen and upload us the files that I'm requesting Serano, zip them o3o

    Ok. State the problem, the alternatives we have tried, and why every attempt we make there is a eternal loophole.

    it would be prefered too if you can keep them in the same folders that can be found under crossfire's folder
  • It would be so nice to see some Staff-members looking here and trying to help, but no1 does :/
  • Ok everyone, were nearly at point finish! I have a PM with Fizzeq, and he said the Mods and Juicebox will be holding a meeting this morning! Let's hope they can come up with conclusion.
