feistyballs Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Hey there, I'm in dire need of some help. I've been trying to download the Brotherhood of Shadow Mod onto my PC and I'm having loads of issues. I downloaded WinZip in order to unpack the files, and that goes off without a hitch. However, once I begin the install, it gets about halfway through before it gives me a message saying there were 51 errors and 51 warnings, then a bunch of text comes up saying things like: Error: Destination file "modules/ship6.mod" does not exist at the specified location! Skipping section.. and so on, and so on. Anyone experienced this before? I'm entirely new to modding and have googled a ton of topics on it and found no information. I even uninstalled Kotor and reinstalled it, hoping that would fix the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JebusJM Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Are you installing into the right directory? Try running the installer as Administrator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feistyballs Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Here's what I am doing, step by step, since maybe I'm missing something or doing something incorrectly! 1) I open the file in WinZip, then I unzip it. It asks me where I want to unzip it to, and it just creates a folder named bossr_1.1 or something along those lines. 2) From here, I am now able to choose to run the BoSSR installer, which is what I do. I can run the installer from WinZip, or from my own files, I don't know if it makes a difference. 3) Then, I am asked where I would like to run the installer to. To which I choose C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\swkotor 4) The download begins, gets about halfway through, and then I experienced the problem mentioned above. So, any idea what the issue is? I feel like it may be something simple I am missing that I just don't know about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Kitty Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Try running the installer as administrator. Run it from the folder you created unzipping it, not from inside the zip file. To run as admin, you can usually just right click the .exe icon and select "Run as administrator", but if you don't have that option for some reason, right click the icon, select "Properties", then choose the "Compatibility" tab, and down near the bottom, turn on (put a tick in the box next to) "Run this program as an administrator". When it does run, windows will pop up some kind of little dialogue box asking if it's ok for this program to modify stuff, blah blah. Say yes. The installer should then run as usual, but it should now have permissions to modify/create files where it needs to. See, this once again illustrates why it's a bad idea to install games to your Program Files folder (which is annoyingly, almost always where things want to go by default). That folder, and everything inside/below it gain special protections where the "normal user" is limited in their access. If a program isn't run at an elevated security level (which most won't be unless you tell them to), they're restricted from certain operations like modifying or creation of files. Anyways, give it a try and see what happens. Worst case, you'll be right where you are now and we'll look for another solution. If you DO keep having trouble, and it's possible to copy/paste the output text it gives you, it might be helpful if you can post it here so we can get a better idea of just what exactly it's complaining about. -Kitt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feistyballs Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Alright, I did exactly what you said, ran it as administrator and everything.
