Beta Build 14 Installer Error

Disregard the topic title. I fixed that error, only to meet a new one. I have installed the stock game, the build 14, and patch 5 all into one folder (not in program files). I also have swift-shader in that folder, as I have an intel :(
The stock game works, yet when install build 14 and patch 5 and try to run the game I receive this error.

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Users\Owner\Documents\"MyName"\POTC\ENGINE.exe


abnormal program termination


I followed all of the installation instructions, including running the runme.bat and rename.bat.

Any help here?

EDIT: After like my 4th or 5th attempt, trying various different things, I was able to get the game to run after installing only build 14. I believe if I try to install patch 5 though, the game might crash again....
I guess I'll test it out.


HUZZAH! I decided to try installing it without Swiftshader 2.0 and it worked! I thought the swiftshader would help, as I am currently using the swiftshader demo to workaround my intel graphics card, but I think it was the cause of all of those error messages. Only took me like 8 hours of downloading, backing up files, and installing multiple times to figure it out... oh well. Totally worth it :onya
 
Yes. That is a common error. I have done that too. If you need swiftshader it is best to download and install it separately. The same thing goes for ENB.

I'm glad you got it installed. :cheers
