Data Corrupted Issue - March 2011 Update
03. 07. 2010 08:54

Stormvanger	Our favorite issue is still with us, so long now that I've put a YEAR in the update in the title. There's still no blanket fix for this issue, the updater still sometimes fails to update your installation correctly and the result is the "DATA CORRUPTED" issue we've come to know and loathe. Anyway, with the latest thread update, we've updated some of the procedures slightly. (I'd say "enjoy", but I know you won't.) There's no best way to fix it, as each fix depends on your PC's setup. And all our PCs are at least a little different. But if you are seeing the DATA CORRUPTED message, the method that has worked more often than not is as follows... 1 - Go into control panel, add/remove programs and uninstall Navyfield. 2 - Use regedit.exe to open your PC's registry. Search for "SD Enternet" and delete anything it finds. (IF you are not comfortable editing the registry, you can skip this step. But if it fails to solve your problem, you'll likely have to go back and do it again and add in this step after all. People have reported success both with and without this step.) 3 - Navigate to your SD Enternet directory (usually c:\program files\sd enternet) and delete it and all subdirectories. 4 - reboot. (it's windows, it loves this step. =) 5 - Go to the DOWNLOAD section of this site, the GAME DOWNLOAD subsection and download and install a fresh copy of navyfield. CNET will take longer but seems always reliable, while SDE's link is quicker. (Current version is as follows...) http://sdentglobal.nefficient.com/sdenternet/Download/NF1315.exe 6 - DO NOT START THE GAME AFTER THE INSTALL 7 - Now hit this URL and download the latest manual patch and run it. http://www.navyfield.com/chkcount/chk_download_05.asp?Code=button_patch 8 - Compatibility Mode is no longer a good idea, since the Hackshield patch. DO NOT use Compatibility mode. Steps 5 and 7 combined bypass the updater altogether and install the latest version of the game. This has worked for quite a few people. PLEASE test it out and let us know if it worked or not! IMPORTANT NOTE - some users have reported success by disabling their anti-virus software during steps 4 and 6, as non-standard or out-dated anti-virus programs can interfere with software installations. THE LAST THING TO TRY If you've followed the above steps and your computer is still trying to deny you your gaming experience, please open a support ticket on the blue column to your left. There might be something amiss with your account that only a GM can fix, or your PC could have a non-standard setup that a tech mod could advise you on.

Zuliano	I'ts worked for me, i did all the steps, and now i can play NF without problems, i recommend use the cleaner registry of "CCleaner" software (search on google wath it is) but more effective is manually edit the windows registry but is delicate to edit, and check all the NF entries of the registry, searching for "SDEnterNET"...Of course doing with caution, and check the antivirus systems that couldn't edit the registry..

Jester_SL	This game is a pathetic excuse. The developers need to go back to basics. What a total waste of my time. Time I will not be getting back!

AmiasPreston	I am VERY dissapointed with the sloppy patch. I've downloaded and followed the steps three times already and I'm still getting the 'corrupted data' message. I guess its time for the developers to hire new programmers who can create an efficient and logical Update. How come the uninstaller does NOT get rid of the old registries?? oh no! you have to do it manually. Why do I have to download the Soviet Sprites as a separate file?? Oh no! that's too complicated explain. How come there's a NFUpdate thingy that's supposed to check the integrity of all the files and says 'Everything OK' and then when I log-in it says 'Data Corrupted' Oh well... you get the picture, right? Like someone said earlier in this thread... You guys are ruining your own server population! Wake up, SDEnternet, WAKE UP! I'm not even bothering to send a support ticket... I'll just move on and hopefully, in a few months when you guys solved all these issues, I might give it another try.

AdmiralAckba	hey, since 1.315 i haven't been able to play. I've followed this guide to the letter including deleting the registry and deleting pervious sd enternet content. No matter how it's done it continues to say data corrupted

Stormvanger	Updated.

Re : Data Corrupted Issue - October Update

gnbora35	I did exactly what you said and this time, it patched 4 files instead of 101 after the manual patch. Then it said "Error running updater. (Error code: 30000011)" Then blackscreen. After a few seconds in blackscreen, another error box that says "Running in compability mode. The program will be closed." appeared. So I tried to turn off the compability mode but it was already turned off. Like I use DeepFreeze, game files were re-corrupted. I tried to restrart the game and it started patching 101 files so I closed it. What now?
