[ MM6 ] Technical Problem

Unread postby Matt.J » 27 Jan 2009, 22:58

After installing MM6 (v1.2) I'm receiving an error when attempting to run the game, along the lines of:

"Pager initialization error 2 - the system cannot find the specified file (mss32.dll)"

Obviously the file can be found, due to when using a different version of it, there's other complaints (unable to locate a proc called AI_shutdown); apparently this problem is quite common, but I'm yet to see a solution.

Can anyone shed some light on this problem? Don't really feel like disassembly this early in the morn'

I have not had this, but it looks like the file is just missing. I don't know if it's from the game, or the patch.

I know the re-install is obvious, but..

The file isn't missing, it's in the same directory as the executable; as mentioned, if I replace it (mss32) with a different version the game can find it, but complains about other things.

I heard something about a 1.2b patch that fixes the problem, yet to find it though.

Oh, I have the patch for MM6. Can I email it to you?

Hi guys. I just installed the game and have the same problem ("Pager initialization error 2 - the system cannot find the specified file (mss32.dll)")
I only have the patch 1.001 if the .exe version info is right. Can you help me? :P

NVM ^^: I've just installed the GrayFace MM6 Patch v1.3 and that made the game work!!! ;)
