Windows
The ISO file keeps saying the disk is corrupted. RIP file keeps not finding the disk oregon5.dat file but its there in the data file.
The ISO file is actually a RAR file! Rename to .rar and extract it. It is NOT an ISO.
Also, I got it to work by setting it to compatibility mode. I’m on windows 7. Check all the boxes for compatiblity, and set to windows XP compatibility. Do this for the “ot5.exe” file, which is separate from the launcher.
Also, you can edit the “oregon5.ini” file so it says “rsrpath=data” and then copy the “data” folder from your installer into the “Oregon Trail 5” folder in program files.
Having a very similar issue as described below. Game states it can’t start without the disk on either file. I’m on windows 10 and currently nothing I try works for it. Game won’t open.
Neither file works. Tried various methods to open the .iso file, all of them return some form of “corrupt file/windows can’t access” error message. The .exe in the other file can’t find the data file located in the subfolder, don’t know how to fix that.
Update: Used an .iso found elsewhere (exactly the same I think) and, after editing the INI file to include the proper path to the data folder as suggested by google, got it to work fine. Mind you this is in Ubuntu using Wine. Still can’t get it working completely in Windows 10, it keeps freezing during or after cutscenes.
