Hi there

 

I don't know if anyone can help.  I've bought SWG and trying to install but keep coming up with the following error:

Beginning download. 

Download: Mss32.dll_delta....

Decompress: Mss32.dll_delta

Error: Bad file. Please redownload this file

 

I've tried searching for this file but can't find anything online with the DELTA extension...ARRGGGHHH.

I'm stuck!!!!!

Thank you

I am having the exact same problem. I am using the new Windows Vista on my brand new XPS Desktop and can't seen to get the game working. If anyone knows of alternate and complete patches, I would love some good guidance in this area.

OK ... Have you guys set SWG up to run as admin? That could be the problem.

Hi again...thanks for your advice

I just got off the chat box to SOE and he told me to delete the Mss32.dll file and then run the program again.  Now it seems to have gotten over that hurdle.  Now it says download complete and just says updating???  I think someone else was having this problem but I didn't see any solution.

I am going nuts :0()...

Hmm .. never gets to the "PLAY" stage? I think there were people who had that problem. I'll see what I can find.

I had the same problem installing SWG on Vista ... had to delete mss32.dll .... it re-downloaded itself but wouldnt update further.

I just set the program to Run As Administrator ... and off it goes. It works.

The whole mss32.dll thing is weird. The identical file is installed with Dungeon Siege II ... with no problems.

No telling ... that's why I'm staying away from Vista for a while.

Count me in on this one, I have the same problem on my vista machine. It says that my download is incomplete due to a connection failure. Any thoughts on this one Hawk? Oh ya, it's me, the infamous Beebo-LOL

I had the same problem and this is what I did:

After installing the game you will get the program icon on your desktop. Before running the game right click on the icon and choose properties. Now choose the "compatibility" tab. Toward the bottom where it says "Privilege Level", check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator". Run the program as normal and everything should download and start as usual.

I hope this works for you as it did for me. Good luck!

Right click on the icon and run it ever time as admin, or set properties to run as admin everytime (right clicking as well, select properties.)
