pakrat2k2 is on a distinguished road
some programs/games expect a file to be a specific size & creating a 'dummy' file with 0 byte size ( same name as original ), it refuses to install or crashes on that file. But using the dummy file creator, you can make an empty file with the exact same size as original, to get around that issue.
