WK installation issues #31

Open jeffrechten opened 5 years ago

jeffrechten commented 5 years ago

Hello!

I am facing some issues with the WK installer. I have the HD content but when attempting to install to "both", the installer just dies and Windows 7 closes it so I just installed to "Offline".

Voobly doesn't recognize the patch this way and when I try running WK54.exe, I get the error "make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with directdraw age of empires".

WK54 is the only thing that doesn't work as age2_x1.exe works fine with 1.5RC and HD works fine too.

I tried doing the "voobly installation" and it did get farther. During "Applying DAT patches", it dies again and Windows 7 just says "WololoKingdoms has stopped working". 1 2

Hello,

As far as "could not initialize graphics.." is concerned, AoE2Tools has an integrated fix and the solution is from here: https://github.com/gregstein/AoE2Tools/issues/18

From the look of your screen it seems that "gamedata_x1_p1.drs" did not build so i recommend that you press the arrow in the error window " View problem details " and paste the info here so the devs could look into it.

Meantime you could try installing wk through AoE2Tools.

In additon to what gregstein said, verify your game files on HD before running the installer. It's possible that some difference in the HD files is causing issues.
