Some months ago, I started having problems with Oni not starting after doing a Install with AE.
No errors, no messages. It just won't start, no matter how many times I click on it's icon.
No proccess on task manager, either.
So, I just figured out something very important that may help fixing this error.
In GameDataFolder, most LevelX_Final.raw and LevelX_Final.dat are missing.
Right now, I can only see 3, 4 and 12.
After putting some old dats and raws from a backup I made, I found out it works again, but with no new mods.
So, can someone, from this information, think on a way to fix this?
Thanks.

I had this problem before on my old computer sometimes the levelx_dat and raw are not written especially when u have many mods installed this is due to memory issues I believe. once I updated my RAM I never faced that again. so what I used to do is once it creates all of them correctly with all the mods I need installed, I make a backup of them and use the backup to replace the files it doesn't create later.
how much time does it take for the AE installer to install btw ? if it takes more than 2-3 minutes or if it takes very little time ( few seconds) it's most probably a memory issue.

Yes, how many mods do you have checked to install?

Install again, upload your Install.log.

I have a lot of mods. Takes about 10-50 seconds depending on how many mods I install or uninstall at a time. I have 2 Gb RAM.

I have a lot of mods.
That is not a very precise answer.

Can you check your VanillaDats folder and see if there is anything inside?

Of course, the real answer to this problem is "Don't install ludicrous amounts of mods". We provided checkboxes for a reason (as opposed to just installing everything that's in packages/).

1-) Sorry, last time I tried, roughly 20 to install, total: 45.
2-) Microsoft Windows 7 x86. Played Oni before, AE had no noticeable problems.
3-) Empty folders, except for level0_Final, which contains more or less 10 files, all ONWC .onis.
4-) I don't install all I have.
Do you think I should maybe try a fully clean install?
Thanks everyone for the help, btw.

Right-click on the icon of the installer and click "Run as Administrator". Try installing like that.
If that doesn't work, fully reinstall the game.
Offline
I already tried running as administrator, same results.
After the install, some raw files are missing and running as admin was never needed anyway.
I'll try a reinstall when I regain access to this computer, as I must go now.
You guys may want to leave instructions here and I'll try them later and report the results.
Sorry for this 'setback', but I'll soon have access to it again.

Iritscen: the limit to the number of mods you can install is pretty much bounded by the number of characters you can fit the arguments for Onisplit. Depending on how I coded it (I forget) it is either 32767 or 8192. 8092 / 42 = 192. Even if all mods were installed, his paths aren't 192 characters long, he isn't in danger of hitting that limit. Everything else is done with C++ STL lists, or C# Lists\Dictionaries, which don't have any easily reachable limit. I'm not quite sure how he managed to delete his VanillaDats. Any theory I can think up of at the moment doesn't sound right. What this looks like is a failed Globalization, but how it happened on an existing install is beyond me.
Lukas: Go into advanced options and select ReGlobalize. If that doesn't work, upload Globalize.log.

I know that the Installer shouldn't have any real limits, but I seem to recall that paradox reported an upper limit to how many .oni files it could handle before malfunctioning. Haven't gotten to test for this yet, though.

If there is a limit to .oni files, it's in Onisplit and needs to be reported to Neo.

Reglobalizing takes a lot of time but fails, handled exception, "access denied" on "level3_Final\SNDDmick_hrt_dth3.aif.oni".

EDIT: Nevermind... Reglobalization and installation seemed to work as expected, but Oni still won't run.
All .raw files are there this time (except for the ones that aren't supposed to be there, like level 5).
Startup stops on "loading level 0...", installation takes 30 secs but reports no errors in the install.txt file.
Globalize.txt seems normal, except that it ends on "Moving level0_Characters", after doing some reimports.

Upload both Globalize and Install. Sounds like it still didn't work properly. We'll see.

That looks about right. Could you run the install again without any custom packages checked?

As I was partly expecting, from past experience, it works unless I select the Jubei&Akane package.
I'm not saying there is a problem with Samer's package, just that it won't work for me, for some reason.
Other than that, it works as expected.
Thanks a lot to everyone for the help.

There might be conflicting files in that package and another.
