someguy82 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 So after I finished downloading the Hulkamania Extreme Edition mod this happens. So Im ready to play looking forward to it and when I select the database this message pops up. Warning! Connection to 'C:\Program Files\GDS\TEW2016\databases\HEE\TEW2016.mdb' has failed (Unrecognised database format 'C:\Program Files\GDS\TEW2016\databases\HEE\TEW2016.mdb'.). The program must now close. If anyone could help that would be much appreciated if my windows type is needed its Windows 7 thank you bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan93 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Add an exception in your antivirus for *TEW2016* with the asterisks and you should be all set. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Pretty sure the message "Unrecognised format" tells you the file itself is corrupted beyond repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someguy82 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 OK so I sort of found out the problem. The data I downloaded was a rar file or whatever, of course that does not work in TEW2016 so I changed the data from HEE.rar to TEW2016.mdb it all looks good at first but when I go to select it in the database options menu it doesn't work and the message shown before pops up. So how on earth do I fix this I have been getting this with couple mods and im pissed I can't play them so any suggestion would be appreciated?

KeyR1 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 use a rar program and unpack the file first. eg winrar then use the .mdb that is left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
