Bug Report: URU Crashed

[tangara]

I did, however, hear a noise that sounded like stepping out of a Bahro Bubble in MYST 5.

Lol , I can't believe it ! Nathan, you're so funny !

It was strange. I believe, somehow, my MYST 5 conversion updated some CityDistrict file that it shouldn't have updated. KA-BOOM! Broken install.
My only other option is to try to manually update URU using the conversion files stored in the DI install, which converted correctly. Should I do this?

Well, you may try what diafero told you :

As a last resort - but this might still leave whatever other breakage you have in that installation - you could copy the city files from DI, since it's working there. However be sure NOT to copy the sum file, it will not work offline! Just the prp, age and fni files.

But what I do not understand : when you have re-installed, did you do from a clean copy of POTS ? I can not believe all that happened to you with your installations of URU !

Now that you mention it, the backup was of my old pre-Drizzle install. My Dad made the backup, I'm not sure how that happened.

Well, what I recommend you, and more advised people can correct me if I am wrong, is to take back your original CD POTS and then reinstall the game*, using Drizzle, reinstall the fan ages, convert POTS, MOUL and Myst V. In my opinion something is wrong in your backup.
But first, try what diafero said. Who knows ?
* And do not forget to do a clean backup !

Sigh. Diafero's suggestion didn't work, and I started a new URU install. I guess both of those are going to the Recycle Bin and I have to take another half an hour and reinstall POTS.

I wish there was an easier way to install POTS.

I usually ban spammers on sight. Therefore, spamming is not a good idea.

OK, I'll delete it. Sorry.
