Open MW Invalidation Error

Post by WolfHawk »

When I double click on OpenMW Launcher I get the following error:

BSA Error: Could not find file \dummy.dds in BSA
Archive: C:\Bethesda Softworks\ Morrowind \Data Files\Morrowind – Invalidation.bsa

However, from this screenshot you can see that it is in the folder. How do I fix it?
Thank you!

The BSA is there, the dummy.dds might could not be in it. That BSA could be malformed, for all we know. Need more information.

You don't even need archive invalidation with OpenMW - it does the thing you'd expect it to on its own without help instead of needing hacks.

I fixed it by just removing the Invalidation file and the BSA loader.
