TRJA Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Before installing the new patch I was using a overlay swapper program( I don't remember who did it as I can't find it in the D/L section now). Well now since installing the neww patch it won't work (it has a list of like 9 different overlays you can use), when I try ot run it now this is what it says ---runtime-error '75'. path/file access error--- and in in the "dos Temp" window it shows c:Program FilesMVPSwapper>dir overlays /B /AD > overlays.txt--. Where as before I just picked the overlay I wanted went into the game and it ran fine with the new overlay. I have uninstalled it and re-intsalled it 3 times with it continuing to give me the above error. Hopefully someone knows how to fix this as I really liked the abil;ity to use all the different overlays with just a 1 sec "click" to choose a new one. Edit: I just found the D/L on the site again. It was done by Keith Hertenstein (just in case this helps people by knowing which program I am talking about).

That would be a sad loss, he made a great app. Can't test it myself right now, i'd have to apply patch 2 etc.. then check. Just for that I might actualy NOT apply the patch lol But I'm eager to hear if the overlay swapper needs an update..

drovebykeptgoing1 Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 The swapper works fine , although I had to unin. rein. the game anyhow cuz I tryed just backing up the data file then copying the data off the install cds then patching no luck when I moved the stadiums folder back over.=crashola so I reinstalled the game and to my surprise everything worked except I had to redo all the stadium modds arghhh. It wasnt that bad though but the swapper works fine I think cuz its in the programs folder on the c drive seperate from th game all 15 still work for me after 2nd patch :lol: Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/388-anyone-else-having-overlay-problems-since-the-new-patch/#findComment-2631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRJA Posted May 4, 2004 Author Share Posted May 4, 2004 Well I got it working now. Unfortunately I had to do what Drove did, I had to uninstall and reinstall ( I was saving this as a last recourse). I guess it didn't work at first because of me installing the data folder from the CD's to be able to install patch 2, I guess that messed up something with the swapper. So the answer seems to be that if all else fails just un-install the game, re-install and then put (any) mods back in and the swapper will work fine.
