Fix for xtrap missing files!!!!

Ant1V1rus

For those of you who like me were having issues in Windows Vista, or any other version of Windows for that matter, with Crossfire's XTRAP feature starting then saying "missing files XPva01/02/03.dll" I have found a fix for it. However it will take the use of another computer running crossfire with no problem's (INCLUDING XTRAP) to fix it. In my case i used Win. 7 because i only have two other Vista machines displaying the xtrap error.

Its not very hard but you will need the following things:
About 5-10 min. (Give or take a few, mainly because of transfer time)
A Computer that runs Crossfire with no problems (NO XTRAP PROBLEM)
A way to transfer files (i.e. Flash drive or Networked Computers)

---

Okay so lets start

1. On the computer that doesn't have all of Crossfire working properly, navigate to the folder where Crossfire is contained but not into the crossfire folder. (Usually C:\Program Files\Z8Games\).

2. Delete the Crossfire folder completely.

3. On the computer that plays Crossfire fine navigate to that same folder but not into the Crossfire folder. (Once again C:\Program Files\Z8Games\).

4. Copy that folder to a flash drive (ITS A LARGE 1.5GB FILE!) or make it a shared folder and copy it over to the other computer. (IF ANYONE WANTS ME TO SHOW THEM HOW TO MAKE IT SHARED ON A NETWORK LEAVE ME A POST AND ILL MAKE A VIDEO OR GUIDE FOR IT.)

5. Now that its copied bring that crossfire folder, which should now be on a flash drive, to the computer with the XTRAP problem. Copy and Paste the crossfire folder into the Z8GAMES folder. (This is where you deleted the old folder from.)

6. After it finishes copying over go into the crossfire folder. (Make sure you have Administrative privileges!!!) And in Vista/7 right click on CF_G4box and select Run as Administrator. (In XP you should already be Admin by the type of account you have, so just run the program.)

7. Thats it your done. Thats all I had to do to get it to work. However, XTRAP hasn't tried to update yet and this method may not work later if it does update.

NOTE FOR WIN VISTA/7 USERS: If once you start it and it works at first then you try to login and get an error saying "unable to connect". Check your setting for compatibility. To do this right click on CF_G4box and select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab and uncheck the "Run this program in compatibility mode for..." box if it is checked. Now as long as you run the program as an Administrator it should work as it does for me.
