Trout Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Had a strange experiance today when I tried to join the Op. Pedestal campaign. I started up the MOD switcher program and selected "4.08 mods no 6DOF" and I get an error message saying "somethingsomething 4.08 mod something can not be found".

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 22, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 22, 2009 What can I do? Logon to the forums with the same machine (IP Address) that you run the Checker on. Then wait about 15 minutes, run the mod checker, it'll let you use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trout Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 Thanks for the reply FT. I'm sure I've used the Check Mods without the forums being up before... but anyhow i did what u said and it finally ran the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 22, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 22, 2009 Could it be you had a windows explorer window open on the MODS folder? Or a subfolder of that folder? It probably would have tried to delete that unknown Mod, but couldn't, as it was 'in use'.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 23, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 23, 2009 Trout, A complete and succesfull run of ChkMods should fix this issue... (Make sure all Windows Explorer windows are closed first) Ft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweper Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I had it yesterday. Did practice on 4.09b i think. When I tryed to switch over to 4.08 I got same message that the files couldnt be found. Rebooted pc and it worked again. Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 24, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 24, 2009 To try and prevent the Error 70 on the Tempest Mod, try and de-activate it (by renaming the folder, put a - in front of it) or de-activate it using ChkMods. Then, switch 'Keep unknown mods, make them inactive' to on and run Verify once more. (ChkMods should now ignore the Tempest mod folder, and prevent the error 70. And maybe it can find a different issue...) * Which switcher are you using? * What version does ChkMods think you are running? (See the value of 'Active Mods identified as:', it's in the lower right part of ChkMods screen) * What Tempest Mod is it that causes the error? (I want to try and see what's in there that ChkMods can't handle...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 27, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 27, 2009 For your understanding: - There's a switcher (or in fact, there are several) to switch between (sub)versions of the game. - There's a mod checker tool (chkmods v1.09a) that can help you fix issues with mods. -I'm using the 1.09A switcher Hm, that'd be the version of Check mods, not the switcher... I wanted to know whether you are using the 'IL2VersionSwitcher.exe v.12 that came with AAA 1.1, or the switcher B16Enk created ('Switcher.exe')... but, probably you are using the first one. As for the error you are getting when switching, is it excactly like you said "\4.08 Mod ON"? Or maybe '4.08 Mod ON (NO 6DOF)'? You can try and delete/move the 'IL2VersionSwitcher.exe' file and the file 'currentversion.txt' from your IL2 folder, and the folder '_Game Switchers', and then run ChkMods again, and let it download the missing files. (I cannot understand how/why ChkMods.exe cannot fix the issues right now...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trout Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 I don't usually play with 6DOF on so I switch between 4.08MODS and 4.09MODS only (depending on the server or what I'm playing ex. DT's Operation Ped.) Sorry, I am using "IL2 Version Switcher v1.2" The error i get (as I'm stuck on 4.09MODS reads exactly as : C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\IL-2Sturmovik\4.08 MOD ON (NO 6DOF) not found. But when I started getting this error I have tried switching to all versions offer to check and none work. You can try and delete/move the 'IL2VersionSwitcher.exe' file and the file 'currentversion.txt' from your IL2 folder, and the folder '_Game Switchers', and then run ChkMods again, FYI I looked in "currentversion.txt when i moved it and it says "v408m".

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 30, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 30, 2009 If you did rename/remove the _Gameswitchers folder, ChkMods should've found more than just 2 errors... it should have found at least 18! So, please retry... delete the C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\IL-2Sturmovik\_GameSwitchers folder, run ChkMods once more. 18 errors should be found to be fixed...

gec Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 i'm not sure if this is answered before but, r u sure u did not move your IL2 folder? or if you didn't maybe u should. maybe the switcher has a problem with (x86) in the path. try and copy your IL installation to C:\IL-2Sturmovik\ and run the switcher from there. not sure how will chmods react on moving tho. again, sry if that is all ready answered.

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted July 1, 2009 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted July 1, 2009 Gec's suggestion would be my next step too... Move the entire IL2 folder out of the 'Program Files\' folder. (Or maybe copy it first). Then adjust your shortcuts to start the game to the new folder path. (And Hyperlobby) Then try and run the switcher. If still unsuccesfull, run ChkMods (adjust the path to IL2 installation in there, via Tools, Options first) Looks like changing (some) files in the Program Files folder is being prevented hindered by your OS (Vista? W7?) Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
