You need "JA2_113_UpdateForRelease7435_English_7609.exe", extract it to extracted "ja2_1.13(7609)_eng.7z" and apply the zPatch.bat (fastest way). Sorry for the alert.Ĭurrently it's unpatched. I had assembled the game under Linux (unzipped a vanilla JA2 installation, copied the JA2-1.13 files over it, then moved the result to the WinXP VM), and apparently while doing this, this case mismatch happened, and instead of merging the old and new /Tilecache folders I actually ended up with both of them.

STI files were hidden in the other folder! Windows obviously can't tell them apart, and apparently randomly picks one, actually the original one (with the.

I don't know, what's going wrong on your side, but I suggest a fresh install, starting with fresh original JA2. There should be no such thing as auto-deleting files by the game (no auto-cleanup or whatever).Īt least, it would be the first I heard of and I never experienced something alike. jsd, my only guess is that they, for whatever reasons, are missing in your original JA2. jsd are needed and should be there in a full 1.13-Installation (JA2-original-Installation plus content of JA2-1.13-SCI = full 1.13-Installation).

Like, "dead cow lying arround", give it a structure so we can't move through graphic of dead cow like it was thin air. The ones in Data\Tilecache probably are mostly for "structure" of dead stuff. jsd-files in Data\Tilecache are untouched from original JA2-Installation. So, after copying content of SCI over original JA2, in Data\Tilecache should be 151 elements (137+14). When copying the content of the SCI into the original JA2-Installation, the stuff in SCI will either just be added, or overwrite existing stuff (20 or 21 overwrites for me).Īs for the SCI-files in Data\Tilecache (those 14. jsd-files you see in Data\Tilecache are therefore already there in the original JA2. In a plain JA2-Installation (from CD, Steam, etc.), inside Data\Tilecache should be 137 elements. Meaning there must be some automatic cleanup going on, and I would think that's a good suspect. JSD files, but now it only contains the 14. STI files (unlikely!), the only reasonable explanation is that the game does accidentally delete them under some specific conditions: When I looked into /Tilecache after the crash, it was full with over a hundred. I compared the /Tilecache of my old 8796 installation (which for some reason is also still full of. Kurt wrote on Tue, 10 November 2020 17:24.
