... and this one I dont have a backup of :(

the damaged files are on the play disc.

5 in total:
prelude_chap1.bik
WOTClogo.bik
mus_autorun.wav
mus_bat_aribeth.bmu
mus_bat_rural1.bmu

can anyone please supply those? I'd be very grateful.

<font color=skyblue>Would those files be "zone specific"? I mean, you are not zone 1, so would files from the US actually operate on your system? Is this game zone-specific?</font>

im not sure.
but those seem like movie and m;usic files.
not critical to the game if so and if nothing works i'll try playing without them. still would be nice to have them.

<font color=skyblue>I have to make sure that there is no US legal problem with this, and then find out if there is a zoning problem. </font>

I wasn't aware that games were zoned?

One way that might work (and I just used successfully on my BG2 discs) is to find someone with a good CD writer and get them to make a personal backup of the dodgy CD.

CD writers usually have a far greater tolerance for slight errors in the disc and thus the backup one may well work correctly.

<font color=skyblue>A few years ago on this website, somebody had mentioned how blood in Baulders Gate was more prominent in European games than in American ones, and since then I have figured on my own that this meant that they would also be zone-specific. </font>

Heh, you learn something every day [img]smile.gif[/img]

Weeeell...

I got this program BadCopy Pro which helps recover files from damaged cd's and...

it recovered all the damaged files [img]smile.gif[/img] ))

of course I'm not sure if the files will actually work...

the only thing left is to install and see...

now sleepy time... its 4.30am here.

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="#00FF00">Is it because the CD is scrached and the files are not reading correctly. Pretty much all CD scratches can be fixed with a Game Dr.</font>

well the recovered mus_autorun.wav is a bit choppy but that again fixed with wav repairer.
the rest i'll check ingame. like i said 2 movie files and 2 music files so nothing critical. (definately not the WOTClogo.bik one :D ).
