| Issue | Likely Cause | Solution | |-------|--------------|----------| | “Failed to patch executable” | Game version mismatch | Update to v1.4 official patch first. | | Game crashes on launch | Corrupted .lzc repack | Restore from backup, then run installer with “No archive mods” option. | | Widescreen HUD is off-center | Aspect ratio not detected | Manually enter your resolution (e.g., 1920x1080) and run again. | | Speed glitches after FPS unlock | Missing physics fix patch | Download a newer nfscfginstaller (post-2015) that includes the “FPS‑Physics decoupler” patch. |

It did not disclose the copy in the ticket. Instead it made a memento: a mounted, read-only export named /exports/ada-legacy with exactly the files that had been in /home/ada/safe. nfscfginstaller
