Trying to install the battlegroup 1.1 update and get the following error:

Battlegroup42 mod has not been totally installed due to the following
reason.

mods\battlegroup42\archieves\animations.rfa: This file contains invailid
data (error 21FC)

You will need to run this utillity again to completley install battlegroup42
1.1


Downloaded the update again, did a clean install of 1.0 & 1.1.. same error.

Anyone else had the same problem... Going to download the full 1.0 install
again tomorrow and see if that fixes it.

I've recently heard of someone who had trouble with the same file. Maybe
it would be enough if you replace just animations.rfa.

How did you do a clean install without the full version of 1.0?

I'm downloading them both again from different locations... So far I still
get the same error with the new 1.0 file from fileplanet. The 1.1 update is
almost done, so will test that again in the morning.

I meant I'd done a clean install of 1.0 and then 1.1

Odd. If push comes to shove, I could feed you a working animations.rfa,
my installation is working (though not used).

I see. ;^)

NC (Napalm Cowboys) are running a full-time BG server at
216.28.23.178:14567. There is a slight player problem, unfortunately.
The BG community is seriously understaffed at the moment, for reasons
I'd rather not talk about to keep my blood pressure in check.

Thanks for the tip! BG is my favorite too...

I got it sorted, Had to download the 1.0 update twice and the 1.1 patch four
times from 3 separate locations. It appears that the 1.1 patch was the
problem, for some reason it just wouldn't download correctly, or was a bad
file... although I did follow the link from the official site. Eventually
got it from BF42files, as Fileplanet didn't seem to have it at all.
