Help! No ingame sprites

Twiggy

First time out of the vault
Help! None of the enemy/friendly sprites are showing up in my game, all it is is my squad and a bunch of invisible enemies whom i can kill but cant kill me. I'm running 1.27 and i have all the patches.
 
People get annoyed when you post a topic as "Help!" as it does not say what you need help with. The whole fucking forum is for help. WE KNOW YOU NEED HELP, SAYING HELP IS JUST STUPID.

Also, whenever you post for tech help you should give as much detail on it as you can. Not one sentence. The good people here are not mind readers.
 
Well I've given all the details I can, enemies are invisible and im running a full patched version.
 
Well it'd help for a start to tell us where you are in the game, at the first mission or half way through etc. Not all the sprites are in the same files but it pretty obvious that you're either missing a file or it's corrupted. Since I don't know where you are in the game I can't help you more than that, though there is a patch for missing CD3 sprites in the download section, you could try that.
 
Sorry bout that, I just started the game and none of the raider sprites are showing up, I've already tried the patch. I rushed through the first mission, and I went to the first bunker and all te sprites there were showing up, but when I went to Freeport, nothing.
 
Sounds like you're either missing or have corrupted, files spr-character_AB.bos and/or spr-character_ABD.bos. Try re-installing or doing a manual install, they are on CD2 in core and should be 84,859KB and 19,822KB respectively.
 
Ok I tried to manually install them but apparenlty the files are corrupted, is there any way I can fix them up?
 
I've got the patch you need. It's really freaking huge, because it reinstalls an uncorrupted spr-sprites_0.bos which is what I had a problem with, and it was the same as yours.

Don't know how to get it to you, it's 75.7 megs.

/edit; I'm uploading it to NMA, pending Odin's approval, you should be able to get it here shortly.
 
Urm but spr-sprites_0.bos isn't the file that's corrupted, that one contains all the inventory sprites and projectiles etc not the raiders. Besides it should be approx 85meg, and is your patch is probably the same as cd3 missing sprite patch anyway?

Twiggy you can try using something like winrar to uncorrupt the files. Otherwise you either need to get another copy of FOT or contact a friend (privately) with the game and see if they can help you as NMA doesn't allow file sharing requests.
 
Ok, it turns out I had a dirty CD, I cleaned it up, unzipped the files and now it works, thanks guy! :)
