[MOD][SW2] Project "Retrospection"

Hmm.. seems that your system takes sound errors more seriously than mine.

Try links below. The file is self-extracting 7zip archive (only 7zip gives archive that weights less than 1gb). If it crashes download 7zip from here.

Link 1
or
Link 2

Put the file into main game directory and run.

OK I reinstalled - ran and got to the first state of it runs but with dialogue placeholders. Took your advice and changed the localization from english to russian and got the ctd, so its the mod and not your patch.

Checked my log and got the same error message as before.

Edit: I will try the files above

I've just realized that you have steam version. I remember people saying that it's the most bugged version of SW2. Some of them tried "3rd party" exe and it worked. If you still get ctd (after installing from my package) you can try it. It's the last possible option I can think of.

Sound errors may mean that your system lacks of some codecs but I doubt it. The game has its own codecs and they should be enough.

Sorry to say still getting a crash, I have no idea what a 3rd party exe is but I have spent hours now woring on a mod that I may not even enjoy lol. I don;t want to waste any more of your time with this. Thank you for the effort, 1c ought to put you on the payroll.

Check these two posts (1st, 2nd). There are a lot of threads on this forum about issues with SW steam versions (especially SW2). It looks like too many copy protection systems (original StarForce plus additional soft from steam) makes the game unplayable on some configurations.

Sounds like a large mod, too bad I didn't buy SW2 :/

I guess I'll go back to waiting for Ashes of Victory to get postponed again... lol... x__X

You can get it on the cheap nowadays. I know people knock SW2 and it did have issues but I found it a diamond in the rough. I was disapointed that sw3 took away things that were introduced in sw2 like the concept of having a crew for your mothership or random missions. It is worth a playthough if you can get it to work

Yeah, I loved the feature list especially random missions and crew, and I did have a friend who bought the game, but the story felt too short and crashes too often for my tastes.

Is there any way to get this working on my german version?

Something like changing language from german to english ... ?

Download full version. Install it. After installation copy all content of ..\DATA\LocData\English and paste into ..\DATA\LocData\German. That's all but whole game will be in English.
