Emergency 3 Incompatible bone structure solution

[Grim_Wizard]

Hello all,

Many times I go to view help topics and I come across a logfile similar to this:

Incompatible bone structure errors are caused usually when data is corrupted (Such as in a bad install or after a power glitch) And are found in the log file's precache stage. (When models are loaded up for faster data recall.)

Unfortunatly the only option is a reinstall to put in fresh correct data.

-==ERROR INFORMATION==-

Symptoms: Crash to desktop while loading game or mission.

Corrections: Reinstall

How to find out if you have this issue: Open the logfile in your game directory and look for a incompatible bone structure warning.
