Cruis.In Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 I bought the CD from BMT micro on release. SO I have the 1.00.01 release. I used to patch to 1.00.07 all the time if I ever reinstalled. Anyway something interesting is that, the patch that it downloaded was marked 1.00.16.01.inc and it was 42.9 megabytes. So I went to a website and downloaded 1.00.16 full and applied it and the game works fine. And I noted that this patch was over 50 megs as opposed to the one the updater downloaded. This presents a minor issue, anyone with an original CD from BMT micro, reinstalling after a time and using the updater will probably get this error. Anyway I am playing fine without any problems after applying that full patch over everything. Is it correct to say that 1.00.16 is inclusive of 1.00.07 now? I received several private msgs from persons stating they had this error and solved it by downloading the full patch from a mirror. peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Well I was never made aware of this. So all those who sent you a PM should be flogged. The difference between the Updater patch downloads and the ones on mirrors is that the latter is a full - and therefore larger - patch. If you are attempting to run the older Updater that is on that CD-ROM, I suspect that it does not support the newer command set. Why is why - like most sane people around here - you should have first downloaded the new version to see if that solves the problem. Anyway, I just tested it by doing the following. I edited SETTINGS.INI and changed the version to 1.00.01Ran Updater. It reports that 1.00.07 is available.Updater downloads itThe patch runs and then exitsI run Updater again. It reports that 1.00.16.01 is available.Rinse repeat. Works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruis.In Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 I knew of the new updater and I sought to download it before I posted, but I could not find it. I was looking in the 1.00.07 release thread where I think info relating to it was first posted but didn't see a download link. I knew that would have solved any problem I had. Obviously I was looking for it in all the wrong places. thanks anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
