'Failed to detect game version. Invalid DOS signature'

I have been trying to load Mods through Lucas' Simpsons Hit & Run Mod Launcher. Every time I try to load one, it says 'Failed to detect game version. Invalid DOS signature'. I looked for Simpsons Hit and Run Executables but nothing would turn up. Could I have some help in fixing this please?

Hi,

Do you have a copy of the game? Your statement:

Makes me think that you haven't.

The Mod Launcher is only a launcher, and you still require your own copy of the game to run - though the launcher should support all known releases of the game.

If you have got a copy of the game, and you're getting that error, could you please follow the below steps to verify your install:

  • Download Lucas' Simpsons Hit & Run Install Verifier and launch it.
  • If not already selected, Browse to your game's install location.
  • Make sure Mode is set to Verify Install.
  • Press Start in the bottom right.
  • The application will then go through and verify all your game's files.
  • Once complete, it'll prompt you to save a file, please upload that file to a filehost of your choice (such as Mediafire or MEGA), and post the link as a reply.

Thanks,
Josh

I am pretty sure that this is the link. Please let me know if this does not work.

Hi, that would not work because it is just the path to a .lsp file on your PC.

How do I send the link?

Upload your file to a host site (as mentioned by Proddy above) & then send that link in here.
Apologies for the late reply.
