OniSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

When I try to install the game, it gives me this error.
I try opening OniSetup.exe, and it simply gives me the "Blam" sound and this message, what can I do to fix this?

I can't install it at all.

Wait...let me get this straight...the Setup is blamming?! That is a new one for me. Where did you get your install?


Iritscen: roll
Iritscen: it's amazing this program even works
Gumby: i know
Iritscen: and that statement applies to my code, not just yours

Re: OniSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

It looks like your OniSetup.exe is corrupted. Try this to install Oni manually:

1. Download http://rossy.oni2.net/files/unshield.exe and save it to C:\Windows

2. Open the command prompt (Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt) and type the letter of your CD Drive and a colon, then press enter. For example, on my computer, i typed E:

3. Next, type unshield -d C:\Oni x data1.cab and press enter.

4. When it is finished extracting (the last line should be "extracting: C:\Oni/Files_(Data)/GameDataFolder\IMGD\Airport/airport_main.bsl") go to the Oni folder in C:\

5. There should be an English folder, a Files_(Data) folder and a Files_(Program) folder. Create a new folder in C:\Program Files called Oni, then copy Oni.exe from the English folder, GameDataFolder from the Files_(Data) folder and binkw32.dll from the Files_(Program) folder to your new folder in C:\Program Files.

6. Right click drag Oni.exe to your desktop and choose "Create Shortcuts Here" to make a shortcut to Oni.

These steps worked for me, but if you have a slightly different Oni disk than I do, they might not work.
