Will never verify/install Trinity correctly.

from Sins Forums

Hello, I purchased the retail copy of Trinity. I've done several installs now with a number of reoccurring problems and a few sporadic ones.

The main issue is, Impulse tells me during a manual verification that it hasnt installed correctly. It recommends an application update, which then doesent fix the problem. Its an endless cycle of updating/verifying/updating/verifying etc. I can get in fine before I run the verification process, but something must be wrong because it says my mesh files differ during multiplayer games. I'm attributing this to the failure of the validation, but perhaps i'm wrong?.

A few issues also occurring randomly is trouble registering my product's cd key. It'll be useable for Trinity A-OK, but the Diplomacy and Entrenchment expansions just continually refuse to play even after a successful register of the cd key. I dont know if Trinity incorporates all the expacs or not, so it might not be an issue at all.

A bit of help would be greatly appreciated :) thank you.

To clear out your mesh files, you'll need to go into the application folder (right click in Impulse, select 'Open application folder'), and there are three different 'Mesh' folders. The first is in the root folder, and there may be two more, depending on which version of the game you have, in the \Entrenchment and \Diplomacy folders. Delete everything in those folders, then right click on the game(s) in Impulse, and select 'Verify Installation'. Impulse will check the integrity of the installed application, and an update should be made available in Impulse. This is not an update to a newer version, but simply Impulse using the update mechanism to replace the missing files. Once you complete the update, reboot your computer.
