Help Please!!
After this latest patch today I keep getting "one or more of your PAK files are invalid" I uninstalled and installed MOHAA twice but I keep getting the same error and it doesn't tell you which files are invalid. So at this point I can't get Missionary to run anymore. Any suggestions? WM |

Reinstalling MOHAA is usually the very last resort.
90% of the time you get a failed .pk3 it's caused by a conflict with an antivirus program. The other possibilities are, Missionary incorrectly identified your operating system Missionary incorrectly identified your version of MOHAA You can check to see if Missionary correctly identified your OS and version of MOHAA under the Tools menu. BTW did you patch MOHAA to 1.11 after reinstalling it? If everything else looks good my next step would be to delete the Missionary directory and install the newest copy. Missionary 1.5.3.510 -------------------- Not a word was spoken to contradict or disagree with S@bot when he called me a....
bully, dictator, snide, hypocrite, arrogant, smartass and lets not forget, according to him the way I act is reprehensible. Yet, you're going to censor my signature because it's inappropriate and might hurt his little feelings??? Sorry. don't think so QUOTE Druid had my admiration and even though he has always come across as an arrogant, snide and very many times a smartass in posts and pm's S@bot aka Little Silver |

I just open and close Missionary once then restart my computer and seems to work good for me if I get failed pak files. HTH

Well I guess the problem with my PAK files is with my McAfee antivirus program. When I switched from Norton to McAfee is when the problem started. They only way I could get Missionary to run was to completely uninstall McAfee.
Anyone else running McAfee having this problem getting invalid PAK files? |
