CPBO Windows 7 proper FIX

[Bushlurker]

I don't think we can blame Foxhound on this one...

According to Keg's website this tools package was updated on and is tagged with 29/06/2010 - Tuesday this week! - and the enclosed cpbo carries the same date...

Dunno if it works with OA content as yet, but it does seem to be a new version...

@DesertJedi... I guess you've already tried everything, but I found the "reboot" bits to be important... regedit out references to .pbo - REBOOT - reinstall cpbo - REBOOT - working OK....
I had it fail to work once or twice when I didn't do the reboot parts - I had the right-click context options, but not the "doubleclick to extract" one...

No doubt I'll be doing all this again at OA time - right now I've just recovered from the 1.07 patch!

But Bushie, does it work with OA PBOs? I'm told they have a new compression cpbo can't handle. I'm going to check....

Quick update on this...

I've just struggled thru the Steam downloading process... haven't tried OA yet, but I HAVE had most of the models an buildings apart already ... Kegs june 2010-dated cpbo seems to be unpacking fine - so far...

Warning
Somehow either due to that older .reg file (for removing PBO references) or me manually removing .pbo references using Regedit ...... my Buldozer doesnt work anymore !
Error: Shaders not valid (mismatch of exe and data)

Looks like I may have to re-install tools.

Armaholic picked up the post and made it a news item without checking - a rare dropped ball by Foxy and his cubs.

I did check it, and if you do it too you will see files have been changed as well as dates on Kegety's website.
Nope, indeed I am not installing every little file we inform the community about to see if there are any issues with it, we trust an author knows what he is releasing.


Kind regards Foxy

[edit]
Even the version numbers of the included programs were changed.........just so you know.

I see that now. My apologies.
