can't run NOTR with english trnaslation mode
   

i just got a gothic2 gold edittion( german version) today. I instaled the game and the eng.t. mode. I tried to ran it and I got this error:

Fehler beim Ausfuhren von:
"C:\Program Files\JoWooD\Gothic2\System\Gothic2.exe"-game:
g2att-g2tnotr.ini.

The System can not find the file specified.

I reinstaled the game and tried to play it without the eng. t. mode and the game would not even start.What do I do?

I think you must install G2-ModKit before you install english translation-mod. After that you shouldn´t get this error.

G2-ModKit (small)

No, the mod kit isn´t needed. The game should run without it. I´ll move the thread to G2 General, where more people see it.

This dialogue is generated by GothicStarter, so most likely filip 5000 has it installed already.

This looks like a "Wrong path" error message. Are you sure that Gothic 2 is installed in C:\Program Files\JoWooD\Gothic2?

I reinstalled my german gothic2 but the game would not run(I did not install the eng.t. mod this time). I removed the german version and then I installed my US version of the game but it would not run either. I played it before on the same system without any problems. Should I reinstall the windows maybe?Help!

Would you elaborate on what you mean by "the game would not run"? Does it show you an error message? Or nothing happens?

Always open up the Task Manager and close any application you don't need.

Did it happen after you install the mod or after you uninstall one copy of G2? If the latter is true, it's likely you have corrupted your registry. Try using a registry cleaner.

It also seems to be the copy protection at fault. However, since you can launch the game before, I doubt if this is the problem.

I'm sure you know that the first-time loading takes about an hour, right?

Probably there are some ununistall files of the mode.Did you delete the saves.

I doubt if the mod is the culprit of the problem. Sorry if I'm not giving any help but blind-shooting the problem.

Probably you installed the mod in a wrong place. You should have remembered the folder where you installed your German G2 Gold and install the mod into that folder.

Probably you didn't uninstall the game completely -- either not all the files are deleted or your registry is corrupted with old data.

A quick way to try is to use System Restore to restore your Windows installation to its previous state (e.g. last week's state), and then try installing G2 Gold from scratch.

EDIT: Rumour from the JoWooD DE forum tells me that this problem may be called by some virus. Not sure, maybe scan your computer?

@Hi-Necro: Use PM.

Hello, Kiwi Boy..

It seems like you know something about Chinese, that is very respectable, at least, this is what I think - unless you are using your mother language in the signature - in this situation, I will be even happier because China got a GIGANTIC saling market so PB should get a certain part of his attention to that market... and this will benefit we Gothic fans who are not living in German a lot!

Besides, if I am right (you know Chinese), could you tell me how difficult it is to learn Chinese? Or, if compare learning Chinese with learning German (I guess you also know German well), what would you say then?

Okay, did you know where you install the game?

Can you run the game (Gothic2.exe, not GothicStarter.exe) directly in the [gothic2]\System folder?

@Hi-Necro: If you want to post something off-topic, please use PM. FYI: the German potential market is much bigger than the Chinese one.
