Technical Help / Catastrophic Failure

« Last post by Tennyson1842 on Sep 16, 2019, 11:45 pm »

Hey Folks,

Was working most of today to try and get BW1 up and running. Haven't been able to install any of the patches successfully except for the Fan Patch.

Message I got trying to install Patch 1.100: An installation support file could not be installed. Catastrophic Failure.

For clarity, I did attempt to run the patch as administrator, and had successfully installed BW1 from CD as Admin.

Maybe I missed an instruction, but based on some of the research I've done it looks like it might be some sort of weird permissions issue with InstallShield.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello there, i want to know... Well i have black and white 2, plus v1 and v2 patch.

I don't have any issues running the game, even with my high end rig, im talking about a ryzen 1800x, gtx 1080 Ti, 32 gb ram and windows 10 at the latest build, weird thing, i install the game and those two patches and the game runs perfect, even at 4K resolutions, i dont have any texture issues or something weird that makes me install the fan patch, i'm missing something or i just have an strange version of the game?

THE STEPS I TOOK THAT MANAGED TO SOLVE ALL THE PROBLEMS I / YOU MIGHT HAD or STILL HAVE

1.downloaded brand new game again from the same source
2. downloaded all the patches and all that once again
3. made new folder not in program files C:\Games\BW1 NO SPACES AND SPECIAL CHARACTERS!
4. installed the game in that folder
5. installed 1.1, 1.2, 1.4 patch and then you can install all the other patches football etc. dont install 1.3 its useless

and i think thats it and if you already installed game brfore try to remove all existing files of it im not sure if that has something to do with my game working at last

after 2 days searching for answer
