game crashing when i try to import bots (windows 7)
« on: June 11, 2010, 05:56:07 AM »
hey guys, trying to get back into casual building and when i searched around for some of my old lw's i found a lw side hammer bot but i can't import it into my game.. if i try to it crashes. I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to let me know if there is any other non-stock parts on the bot that don't come with the original game.

here's the bot:

EDIT: i actually can't import any robots, even the premade stock bots crash my game :/

That bot doesnt appear to have any custom parts.
Your best bet is to download a fresh version of RA2 from Sages sig.

that's where i got my new copy from just about 5 hours ago and i haven't done anything else to the game except patch it to fix the graphics.

the only thing i have trouble with is importing bots it seems, i can play exhibition games :S

in my DSL version i can import DSL bots but not stock robots.

It was already patched. Perhaps the file got corrupted somehow. Try downloading again and don't do anything to it.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
