So, I'm using the new TTW 2.2 installer, but I'm not having a lot of success. I've browsed around these forums looking for a solution, but I keep bumbing into a classic problem, with an unusual twist:
First I get: "One or more of your Fallout 3 BSA files have failed to extract properly. If this problem persists please report it."
So the advice was to run as administrator, same error, use a fresh install (I have installation DVD for both, non-steam Fallout 3), same error, fully patched Fallout 3 (at least, that's what the game says when I look up the version in 'setting'), check, same error, try the other BSAOpt file, different crash error. The crash logs are below, but here comes the real deal:
It was suggested (somewhere) that one should try running the BSAopt x32.exe separately. And for me that also givs errors: on my 32-bit windows xp, the x64 version 'is not a valid application' and the x32 gives this error:
"The procedure entry point RegSetKeyValueA could not be located in the dynamic library ADVAPI32.dll"
Googling this error just spews up generic gumbo about restoring lost .dlls, but it's not lost, just not doing this thing.
- So does anybody have any tips on what to try next to make this work?
- Can I do this BSA extraction step manually, like in the old RtCW setups, and then let the installer finish the job (and if so, could somebody point me to a guide to extracting BSAs for this purpose)?
- Failing all else, would you recommend just playing with an old RtCW till a new version of the installer comes around?
