SOF 2 Problems, need help fast.......

Status
Not open for further replies.
Whenever I try to launch SOF2, lately it comes up with this message:

client_model has invalid definition

This is even after installing and re-installing it approximately 4 times, and adding the SOF2 Gold Patch as well.
 
I will post the message that followed in a few posts due to the minimum character setting on this forum:

My system:

GForce 4ti 4200

Any help would be appreciated
 
ahhh, please upgrade your geforce driver (nFORCEWARE v77.77 or newer) Hope it helps, im still using nFORCEWARE v56.72, work great for me.

ahh, two things, install the latest D3D from DirectX newer than August 2005, and run it if it not work, reinstall the game, not work? get new video card such as GeForce FX5200

Lucan
 
And just to make sure, you are not using any mods, skins or models right? a "bad" mod might create a very simliar problem.

If it worked at one time, but has quit working since any mods were installed... Uninstall it, delete the whole folder it is in (probably C:\Program Files\Ravensoft\....) and reinstall.
 
Please Help Me!

When I try to load the game SOF2 Double helix Mp test it comes up woth this message.. Please Help me it would be really help full if you cant reach me e-mail me at jackman_2_5@msn.com thankyou!
