Cannot Install Patch

Puritan · 03-03-2002, 11:46 PM

I get the following message when trying to install the patch:

"A required .DLL file, VTCPAK33.DLL is missing."

Anyone know where I can find this file?

Thank-you.

Do a search online and I'm sure it can be found.

I have an idea what's going on here. Just download the patch (it's a ZIP file) onto your hard-drive, then unzip the "OOTP4.EXE" file into whatever directory you installed OOTP4 into. Click Yes when prompted to overwrite the old OOTP4.EXE.

Explanation: Some patches auto-install by double-clicking on the EXE file, but this patch is not like that. What I think you did is double-clicked the new OOTP4.EXE in a different directory than where your game is installed, hence the missing file message.

I agree with Killebrew, just copy the OOTP4.exe
file from the patch over the original in OOTP4
folder. Also here is a direct link to the
VTCPAK33.DLL
