Are you sure that this can't have anything to do with a faulty disc? Best regards, Striffelbuur IP: Logged

jhmartin Junior Member Posts: 4 From: Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 12-27-2000 09:46 AM It's not an ILLEGAL copy, it's a retail original. I tried closing everything (even used task manager and blew away almost every single thing running) The installshield error (-106) is "unable to decompress file" karnak.tr4 -john IP: Logged

Nobody supports their own development tools, because they are designed only to work on the company's computer's, for the duration of the level designing process. IP: Logged

jhmartin Junior Member Posts: 4 From: Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 12-27-2000 02:35 PM yeah but read their sale brochure and ads - the level editor is splashed all over as a main feature of buying Cronicles...maybe TRC wasnt good enuf and priced correctly to standalone ;-> -john quote: Originally posted by furby100: Of course Core is refusing to support their development tool.

jhmartin Junior Member Posts: 4 From: Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 12-29-2000 06:11 AM PROBLEM FIXED...took disk to work, tried 3 different computers finally found one that would read the disk, made a copy of it and loaded it at home. Must be a poor manufacturing process (there were 4 bad sectors 78097,78098,78135 and 78296) all in the cab file. IP: Logged
