Ok a good friend of mine from some of my old clans in Sof2 just got his computer fixed after being away for about a year. He has installed the game on his harddrive but when he goes to play either the single player or Multiplayer version he gets this error.

He has also tried to uninstaling & reinstall sof2 more then once after this to see if it would fix it but it still did the same thing. The 1 thing he hadn't tried after talking with me is deleting the entire sof2 folder from his hardrive after uninstalling but I'm not sure if that will help.

 

So I'm posting here to see if any1 else that may have had this problem before or knows how to fix it can give me some input on how to help him.

 

Any help would be much appreciated thx you.

If mRx's suggestion doesnt work have your friend do this :

Completely remove the game again and the patch\patches...makes sure theres no traces left behind on the HD...reload just the game and have him try playing single player with OUT the patch...if it runs then his problem is the patch itself he dl's is corrupted...I've had the same problem in the past when i reformat my comp and reload things then go to an unknown patch source for dl'd...they usually end up being corrupted and then its back to square 1.... even some of the top patch sources get corrupted from time to time....thats the price for getting things for free....

Well thx for the help I will have em try this stuff since some of the other stuff we tried from other forums we read didn't fix the problem for him but I'm not 100% sure he did it correctly.

 

Another fix I read about was replacing the mp.pk3 file in the base folder with 1 directly off the sof2 disk this didn't seem to work either when we tried that. We now think it might be something to do with his sof2 disk being scratched & certain files didn't load correctly which might be the case. So he's gonna try to get his other copy back from his friend to see if that wont help with this problem.

 

Help Much appreciated ppl ;)
