Problem - Button for Hall of Justice won't go down:
The button in the Hall of Justice in DoD won't go down no matter what. There is a well known bug with these
plates. If you only place one or three rocks and save and leave this may happen.
If you place one rock and then place three later or if you place three rocks and then place one rock much
later, all the plates work except war. You can only place all four rocks or two rocks at a time never do this
with the odd numbers as this is the outcome.
Solution #1:
Restore to an earlier point in the game and place all four rocks the first time. If you don't have all 4 rocks,
when yo first enter the room, fight what's there so that they fall on the plates instead of the rocks.
Solution #2:
Only place two rocks and then remove two and place rocks on other two plates.
Problem - Feather of Truth Lockup:
The game freezes when using the portal after getting the feather of truth in DOD
Solution:
Apply the MOE13FG.EXE patch. (NOTE:
You may also have to go back to a previous save before entering this Hall for the patch to work.)
Problem - Cannot Find IV50 Decompressor:
After installing Mask, you have sound with the intro, but but the display is just white with pink lines runnning
diagonally across the length with a message of:
Unable to play video cannot find vids:iv50' decompressor
The setup program didn't properly install the Indeo Video Codec driver.
Solution #1:
Uninstall the game, then reinstall it again.
Solution #2:
Download and install the Indeo Video Codec drivers.
Problem - Uninstall/Reinstall Problems:
Sometimes, when you try to reinstall MoE, you might encounter a "One or more files failed to verify"
error message. This is caused by installing in a non empty folder, possibly from your old MASK\SAVE folder.
If MoE will not let you reinstall the game without uninstalling, and uninstalling from The Sierra Utilities
bombs with the following message:
unable to locate the installation log file, c:/sierra/mask uninst.isu'.
uninstallation will not continue
The game is probably still listed in the system registry as being installed because it was not uninstalled
properly.
Solution #1:
Try going to add/remove in Control Panel and see if it will allow you to uninstall it from there.
Solution #2:
Delete the entire Mask folder. Note: If you have any save games that you want to save, move the MASK\SAVE
folder elsewhere for safe keeping, before deleting the Mask folder.
Solution #3:
Instead of installing the game via the Sierra autorun popup window, close it and run SETUP.EXE on the CD-ROM
from Windows Explorer.
