Weird AGI Studio problem...
« on: October 05, 2002, 11:21:02 AM »
Ok, I recently got an upgrade to my computer and the people who did it botched the job. They didn't uninstall old video drivers, change BIOS settings, or anything. When I got the computer back, I couldn't uninstall the video drivers myself because the stupid uninstall program had an "initialization error" and quit before doing anything.

To make a long story short, I had to reformat my hard drive and reinstall Windows and reload the drivers. Before doing this, of course, I backed up all my data, including my files for Jen's Quest. Now that I've reloaded my system, however, I can't seem to open the game. It keeps telling me that there was an error reading one or more files, or the directory doesn't contain a v2 or v3 game. The thing is...the game runs fine with both the Sierra interpreter and the NAGI interpreter.

Any idea what the problem might be?

(BTW, I'm running Win98 SE).

Joel, by any chance, did you backup it on CD?

Yeah, I did...I just figured it out after attempting to restore from a current zipped backup. Apparently AGI Studio can't open the game when the files have the read-only attribute set.

I keep forgettting that burning stuff onto a CD sets that attribute automatically.

Thanks.
