The Metal Foundry - it arrived! - Page 2

friendforafoe · 07-30-2009, 06:30 PM

So I finally recieved my copy of Metal Foundry in the mail ... The whole time I was installing I was looking at SS.org and the Toontrack forums and seeing all the problems people were having and even with replacement discs, some were still having problems.

My asshole was puckered the whole time during install after reading issue after issue people were having. Disc 3 started making horrible noises in my drive ... 15 stress-induced cigarettes and almost two hours later, Disc 5 completed it's install and I was happier than a pig rolling in shit. I hope you guys get your replacement discs and they install without a hitch, because Metal Foundry is awesome ... like whoa

Could not copy "SL-MetalFoundry/eula.html" From DVD. Try Again?

Any suggestions? Try again doesn't work.

That message comes up when you're not installing it in the right directory. Click on the 'browse' thing and make sure the proper folder is selected (ie: c:\program files\toontrack\superior\whatever). That message came up on mine as well. I just did what I described and then it worked fine.

Thanks... I'll try to finger that out. I'd rep. you but apparently I rep'd your awesomeness recently.

Haha, no problem man. Good luck with it

the overheads in the metal foundry sound really good.. i'm digging it so far. still need some sample replacing/augmenting on snare and kick but everything sounds much better, especially the cymbals

Hýrukante · 10-07-2009, 05:54 PM

i still amazed by how unlucky i have been with my copy, so i thought i'd share this epic tale!

got my copy yesterday, disk 1 is good!

Although... disks 2,3,4 AND! 5 are all ....ed... how shit.

tried everything to get them working too, but the info on the disk is just flat out corrupt.

Bah!

DrewsifStalin · 10-07-2009, 08:39 PM

Mine had huge issues, had to copy some files onto my brothers laptop then flash drive them onto mine.

Hýrukante · 10-07-2009, 08:59 PM

I’m still hoping I can find a fix though.

I tried manually dragging and dropping the files from the disk into the folder but I get an error message at some point saying 'Invalid MS-DOS Function' or sometimes it will just freeze up.

Did you have any of these problems?

If so did using your brothers laptop help?

DrewsifStalin · 10-07-2009, 09:04 PM

The only issue i had was that it would say something to the effect of "this file is corrupt"

Hýrukante · 10-08-2009, 01:44 PM

i got it working!

i had to take out my DVD-rom drive and replace it with a very old one i had lying around. no idea what is going on but it didn't seem to like the newer, and faster drive :S

it still wouldn't install on its own, but i was able to drag and drop the files into my Hard drive.

then i had to install the program with the basic package, because it wouldn't run unless i did. then i transferred the files i to the metal foundry 'sounds' folder and it worked like a charm.

i can't get over how amazing this sounds! some of the presets are seriously awesome!! the room mics bring it all to life in such a good way. it sound so much more natural and clear than what i'm used to hearing
