SP3 install woes

Post by cannonfodder » 2003-03-06 08:22:00

Hey there,

I have been shown the joys of Falcon4, but I'm having trouble installing it !!!

Here's what I've done:
- installed the base game
- applied the 1.8US patch on the cd
- run the FalconSP3_installer.exe - this errors during the following:
"Build New Theater", and I get
"SPTINSTALL caused an invalid page fault in
module SPTINSTALL.EXE at 0177:00406ec1.
Registers:" blah blah blah which then crashes "Build New Theater"

F4Patch then comes up listing the following:

Applied FalconSP.exe.
Applied patch (SP) FalconSP.
Applied patch 3D Parent Patch.

Howzit .... cannonfodder (what Aus cricket team would have been if SA team were to meet 'em in World Cup lol) ;)

Quick search over at Frugalsworld gives the following link as possible solution:

Let's hope it helps.

PS. Start over with a clean install: uninstall/clear registry from Falcon4 and F4Patch/clear Windows\Temp folder. Follow installation instructions in this link:
