When I try to extract finalalbion.wad I get the error message below. I have completely reinstalled fable tlc and got the same error. I have windows 7.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

You used an FMP with FE that edits the FinalAlbion.wad. The FinalAlbion.wad is broken (works with Fable, not with FreeRoam) and so you'll need to grab a clean FinalAlbion.wad off of your game discs (I think it's disc #3) or from a backup.

Make sure you're selecting the clean FinalAlbion.wad when using the FreeRoam app and not the broken one. If you're on Vista or Windows 7, remember to clear out your virtual store, which can be found in:
C:\users\(Your User Name)\appdata\local\Virtual Store\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Fable - The Lost Chapters\data

No because that would be against the rules and no because the FinalAlbion.wad on your disc couldn't be corrupted since you installed Fable and have apparently run it without incident and no because if you did everything right then you wouldn't be having any problems.

Well then are there any other tools that work similarily to freeroam?
