Hello, glad to register here.
A while ago I wound up with a bizarre virus that filled every .txt file on my main hard drive with gibberish - it didn't really do any damage but it did wreck a few games including this one. Is there a way I can get ahold of whatever txt files are supposed to be in the bos file tree? I tried installing the demo and picking them up out of it but it doesn't seem to be generating what it needs, which in this case is gui_txt.txt
The specific error to clarify is something like "Failed to parse gui_txt.txt; file missing or corrupt"
This is an ancient version of the game that's been passed up the chain from XP; the CD is now missing or I wouldn't be here
EDIT: It just occured to me that the text can be cut and pasted, no need to share any files..
EDIT 2: I just found them all on a wiki. Would anyone be kind enough to copy and share so I don't have to do this manually? Also I notice gui_txt.txt is not listed.
EDIT 3: Problem solved!
I found a less ancient mac .dmg installer in my backup drive. Awesome! Convert to ISO and happy ending. ... I guess this makes this post kindof obsolete. It lived and died in less time than it takes to blast the tail off a radscorpion. I will leave it as testament to my ability to work out my problems by replying to myself in a public forum.
