waterinthefuel Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 I followed the installation instructions on this forum to the letter. I go to install FC v1.1 and it gets about 15 percent installed, and the blue line goes back the other way to about 1% then gives me a "error occured during installation" error code 3. Please help!! Lomac 1.02 was running great for me, I should have never messed with it.
SuperKungFu Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 are you installing in this order? 1.00 original lock on (no patch) 1.1 Flaming Cliffs 1.12b patch Also, did you buy lock on gold or something else? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Kuky Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 I'm thinking it's either a corrupt download or maybe you could try installing a fresh copy of LockOn then install v1.1 then v1.11 then 1.12B then Scenery patch.

ViperVJG73 Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Yea, error code 3 is a corrupt download! You should not use a download accelerator please! Sorry all: The latest downloadversion of FC already contains the patch 1.12b! ;) Best Regards Viper System: Intel Core i7-4790, 3,6GHz, 16GB RAM, 128GB SSD, 2TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB GDDR5, TM HOTAS Warthog;(MSFFB2 for testing); TrackIR4 +Track Clip Pro; Windows 10 Pro.

Lomac 1.02 was running great for me, I should have never messed with it. You got a corrupted download version of the expantion. Try downloading it again, I think some other sites that offer it for download (you still have to have the activation key obtained during the purchase) ED's servers are pretty screwed and many people have been getting this error. .
waterinthefuel Posted June 5, 2007 Author Posted June 5, 2007 I used a clean install, I did it in order, and I downloaded it twice with the same result, from the same location. I'm assuming the "key" I need is that yellow number given to me when I purchased the game. I'm not running LO gold, just the old plain version. I don't have Windows Vista, so I have 1.12b, aren't I supposed to have 1.12a instead? I'm running XP. I never got to that point, but I'm just curious anyway. LOL If I do need 1.12a, where can I get that? I can't find any place! Anybody know of any other places to download it from?
Ven Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Not gonna mention specific sources but since you have proof of purchase, my guess is that ED wont mind if you resort to illegal sources for downloading since they can't provide stable download.
waterinthefuel Posted June 5, 2007 Author Posted June 5, 2007 Now my problem is a big white box over where any tank or anything explodes when hit by a missile. Also occurs when planes crash, so its basically any explosion. Anybody know what graphics issues are causing this? I'm using a 7900GS video card that played the 1.02 version beautifully.
