It's a common problem having corrupt files in sof2 and most of the time it's caused by a bad install. A few options on how to fix it...

 

1.) Backup your custom maps, mods, skins etc. Uninstall the game delete the game folder left behind after uninstallation eg "C:\Program Files\Soldier of Fortune II - Double Helix GOLD". Clean the discs and reinstall.

 

2.) If the above doesn't fix it try copying the skins.pk3 off of either disc 1 or 2 (not sure wich) directly into the base folder eg "C:\Program Files\Soldier of Fortune II - Double Helix GOLD\base"

 

3.) Still having issues ask a friend to send it to you via msn etc though considering how big that file is 69mb it's not likely going to happen.

 

4.) Very rarely you'll get discs that have damage not visable to the human eye and the game wont install or work as it's supposed to.Take the game back to the shop with proof or purchase and exchange it for a new copy. If you're unable to do that then you can buy it online from amazon and simlar stores. Remember if you play the GOLD version of the game DO NOT buy a used copy & DO NOT buy it off ebay.
