Do you have a folder in your game directory called ShopINI? If you do, you prolly have some write protection setting on your installation folder and the patch dint delete the files it should have.

after sume manual del of items from shopini it work fine . tanks mate

I'm not sure, but I suspect you might encounter other issues later in your game if there still are some files that should've been packed and deleted by the patch. The best thing would be a clean install, and this time make sure you don't install it in the Program Files or the User folder, I think that's where the writing protection comes from. And when you run the PatchMe.bat, pay attention to what the script says at the end, it'll let you know if there was any problems.

I forgot to say, welcome to the community and enjoy the game

Hye!!!
First of all, I'd like to thank all of you who, did such a great job on this game, especially you, R@s.
I played this game like two years ago and really enjoyed it, despite the many bugs that kinda ruined, on the long term, my enjoyment ; I just tried today the new patche and that blue sun Mod, and must say it's really great how much stable it now is.

Now, I have some questions about "problems" I encountered in my new fresh start in 7.62 :
- I can't seem to be able to open any box (ammo, crates, etc.) ; the hand icon never turn "activated" as it usually does, when opening a door, for example... I do think I remember being able to open crates in my previous gameplay, but it appears as if the function doesn't even exist here... Is this normal ? Is this related to the Blue Sun Mod ?
- Also, is it normal that I started the game with 100.000 $ ??? I thought the point of not having any weapon in the beginning was to make it a little harder, which decision I can appreciate, but having 100.000 from the start kind of defeats that purpose... Is this some bug I encountered ?

I must add that I did correctly every step of the installation (clean install, patch, etc.), and that I didn't have no 7.62 data on my computer from my previous gameplay (I played it on a different computer the first time around). Also, I did try to look in the forums for answers but didn't find anything about these two problems.

Once again, thanks a lot for all the improvement and adjustements you made to this game, it is greatly appreciated. It's certainly going to distract me from the important things I need to do in the next weeks to come, but what the hell...

Only about 10-20% of the boxes on the maps are intractable, try some other boxes and see if they work. Since that's actually controlled by the map meshes I haven't done anything about it.

I guess you're playing with the new Class System, which is actually just for testing, hence the 100k starting money. You could change it back to the normal 1000 in the 7.62\ini\outsourcedconfig.ini file.

Hi, thanks a lot for the quick answer !

Yes you're right I just didn't find any clickable box, I just remembered wrong that aspect of the game ; so, sorry for the dumb question.

As for the 100.000 $, all right, I'll change that ! Are you supposed to start with 0 $, or is there a particular amount, so that I fix it correctly ?

thanks again !
Awesome, awesome job on the game

[R@S]

The start amount is 1000 eldos, you can set that in the 7.72\INI\outsourcedconfig.ini file.

[Solon]

Alright, thanks !

Sorry, I had a brain fart and originally posted this in the wrong thread.

"The grass textures appear to be missing and show up as black blocks on my screen if I install the mod. Can you tell me how to fix this issue please?"


R@S replied:
"...you need to supply more info, like what version of the mod, what patch and what OS you're using."

OK, I am running the Gamersgate digital download version of 7.62-High Calibre v 1.11 build 286.

I'm using Windows Vista 64bit with 4GB of RAM, ATI 4870 video card with Catalyst 10.7 drivers (I've also tried 10.6, 10.4, and 9.6 but I get the missing grass textures with all drivers).

I installed the unofficial patch 1.06 over a clean install of 7.62 and then installed BSM 1.02.
