I recently installed Myth: TFL, which belongs to my roommate, and downloaded the TFL 1.5 update. Myth runs and such, but the second I click my mouse or hit any button, the game crashes.

The log file is riddled with these three repeating errors:

Error: File system General in .\Myth1Code\tag_files.c, line #3478: File uber.dll in the externals folder offsets are bad!

Error: File system General in .\Myth1Code\tag_files.c, line #3483: File tengame.ini in the externals folder has invalid flags!

Error: File system General in .\Myth1Code\tag_files.c, line #3495: Unable to open a file to check if it is a tag file (is tagedit or extractor open?) Err: 32

Error: File system General in .\Myth1Code\tag_files.c, line #3495: Unable to open a file to check if it is a tag file (is tagedit or extractor open?) Err: 5

Any suggestions?

Mac or Windows, and does the CD you installed from have any scratches? Did the game work before installing the v1.5 update?

The CD has no scratches or anything, but I imagine it's quite old.

I run Windows XP Home, and I tried to run it before the 5.0 patch, but it something like... I need Service Pack 4 to run MTFL in Windows NT.

Are you wanting to play through the single-player of the game or online? TFL isn't really played online anymore, nearly all multiplaying is with Myth 2. You can download the Myth 2 demo from:
http://www.getmyth.com/

If you've got more than 640mb of RAM installed, TFL v1.3 & earlier won't start because it thinks there isn't enough RAM available - you can make it run by temporarily limiting the quantity of RAM in msconfig.exe (remember to re-enable it afterwards!), though sometimes Win98 emulation mode is needed too by right-clicking on the TFL execuable.

Failing that, you could try the v1.4 patch:

Otherwise, you can also play the TFL solo levels in Myth 2 via a plugin downloadable from the Projectmagma website.

It looks like your still running 1.3. 1.5 shouldn't be giving the above errors plus it should have a header in the myth log file.
