[SOLVED] Possible corrupted launcher?

AODVIX · Aug 5, 2017

Hello, I have been away for a month from Mb2 and I am excited to come back to play the new patch, but there is a problem. I opened the launcher like I did everyday and expected an update to 1.4.5 but did not get it, what I got instead was a launcher that had nothing written on the news section, so I just clicked play and it opened normally with the previous peneke pack version and only 3 servers came up but nothing updated and something definitely seemed wrong. I am having no internet issues so I proceeded to repair the launcher and it did not work, nothing happened. I then uninstalled mb2 from the launcher, then I uninstalled JKA from steam, afterwards I went into steamapps/common/ and deleted jedi academy. Once all this was done I downloaded JKA again from steam, donwloaded the mb2 launcher and it still opened like last time, I clicked install and nothing happened. I do not know what to do right now, it would be of great help if any of you have encountered this problem before and can help me fix it. Thanks.

- Game been updated to 1.4.5,
- Penekepack has been updated to 1.7 (remove old one and get the newest.)

After reading a half of your message I started to think it is connection related you get a blank news page on the launcher in cases when you have no connection to the internet but, that does not seem to be the case this time.

I recommend you get everything fresh Jedi Academy and Movie Battles 2. Remember to run the launcher with administrator priviliege and also, if you are using Wi-Fi switch to cable or vice versa.

I did get everything fresh, my launcher seems to be the problem and I can't find a way for the launcher to install the game when I click install in it.

Get a new one,
put it to GameData folder, run it as administrator.

AODVIX · Aug 5, 2017

I did, it is not working.

Okay,

1. make sure you have permissions,
2. disable your antivirus program and make sure the firewall is not blocking it,
3. run the launcher again.

AODVIX · Aug 5, 2017

All seems good, still not working. Why would the launcher stop working? I haven't even been on my PC.

k4far · Aug 5, 2017

Get in to launcher go to options and screenshot it is contents (let us just make sure the path for the files is correct.) I remember reading of someone with similiar issue... what fixed the problem for that person I recall it was installing the game on a different hard drive - that did the trick but, it was before last update so these two cases are not necessarily related.

and if repair install this comes up Gyazo - 44f0eab906c45708a79068b2947ebc1a.png

But I know how the paths work, I just don't find an answer as to why the launcher keeps on not installing. Could there be something in my PC?

k4far · Aug 5, 2017

"The error is self explanatory. The path you are trying to access is not present."

How to approach:
1. Go to your GameData folder by using windows explorer above folder contents you will find exact path to the folder so copy it and paste in to the launcher it should be a correct path then.

2. If the earlier did not fix the issue, install the game somewhere else - different hard drive.

Please copy-paste entire error text here (the one has all those "System.IO..." lines).

Make sure parental control is off.

I've installed the game in my 2 hard drives and placed the path correctly, I've done it before and now it just seems like the launcher just sees it as a wrong path. I did what you said, it still ain't working.

@Razer, create folder "MBII" inside of "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData" manually and try repair again.

It's already there and I tried to repair, I get the same error.

Can't you see that the path is different on this screenshot?!
It's not "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData", it's "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData".

Now,

Move MBIILauncher.exe to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData"
MBII Launcher => Settings => GameData path => set to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData"
Restart Launcher, repair again

Please be more careful.

Gyazo - 672872f7a66dcffae56deff4270dfa3d.png The path is correct.
I clicked repair and its said this Gyazo - d9851659746e60e44861f06d30cf1236.png
Then in my MBII folder this repair folder comes up Gyazo - 60e51e0c4df4f7eb882b4547b9e23623.png

Yes, this is how is supposed to be.
Click "Yes" and wait till repair is completed.
If you'll got any errors, post full text to this thread.
if no error will come up, click "Play".

Also, forget about "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData".
You'd better delete folder "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy".

AODVIX · Aug 5, 2017

But it is not repairing, it stays like this: Gyazo - c99e3592af84332bade2bc48f3423138.png
Is it still repairing?

A problem that didn't happen before is that I click install and it does not install anything, it just goes directly to play, and if I click uninstall it closes the launcher and opens it again. Then I can repeat the process and nothing happens, If I click play it opens up JAMP but not mb2, normal jka.

No

Move MBIILauncher.exe to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData".

Delete these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII_Launcher
C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Movie_Battles_Team
D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy

Execute file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jedi Academy\GameData\MBIILauncher.exe", click "Install".

This one does not come up to me. After I go into Users, Local setting option doesn't show.

The other 2 you mentioned I already deleted.
