Install Error

[Aryn]

I have tried to install on several occasions, same error every time. I am installing the Windows MOD via Wineskin on OSX. No problems with other mods.

SETUP-AMBER.DEBUG.zip

Error message:

ERROR: Failure("resource [am0304.wav] not found for 'COPY'")

 

Relevant section of .tp2:

// The following copies sounds used in the new areas to override so that they function

 

COPY_EXISTING ~ams602j1.wav~ ~override/ams602j1.wav~ // in AREA060A.BIF

COPY_EXISTING ~ams602j2.wav~ ~override/ams602j2.wav~ // in AREA060A.BIF

COPY_EXISTING ~am0304.wav~ ~override/am0304.wav~ // in AREA030A.BIF

COPY_EXISTING ~am0307.wav~ ~override/am0307.wav~ // in AREA030A.BIF

COPY_EXISTING ~am0315.wav~ ~override/am0315.wav~ // in AREA030B.BIF

COPY_EXISTING ~am0603.wav~ ~override/am0603.wav~ // in AREA060A.BIF

 

COPY_EXISTING looks for a file that already exists in the game. This particular file is not added by a mod, so it should be present if you performed a full SoA installation (look for CD2/Data/AREA030A.bif).

 

Your unusual mod installation environment could be to blame.

Yes, I did a full install from GOG version. Very strange. Other NPC mods: Indira, Gavin, Angelo, Keto, Kelsey, Fade, Valen, etc. all install fine. Guess I'll be skipping Amber again. Good thing I plan to play a fighter/thief this play through, but I like having her along when I don't.

you can just comment out the problematic copy or create a dummy file.

So just create a dummy text file with same name and put into override folder?

[lynx]

same filename, yeah. But then the install code is even more moot than before.
