Title: A (stupid) question Post by: Carida on November 06, 2008, 09:42:16 am Alright.. So I searched around a good deal trying to find the answer to this.. I will admit stupid question. But I can't see where it might be so.. I have a question.
I now have all the EP's. Was I supposed to download every patch for every EP and install them all? Cause if so.. its no wonder my game has gone up in a flaming ball of nonsense twice on me already...cause I didn't! So that's my question. Are you supposed to patch for EVERY ep that you have, or just patch the most recent one you have? Thanks! Sorry for the stupid question. -C Title: A (stupid) question Post by: Trepie22 on November 06, 2008, 09:45:00 am Every EP should be patched :)
And most suggest to patch them in order of release straight after each installation, but since you've already installed them then just patching them now should be fine as well. It's not a stupid question - I wasn't sure either. Title: A (stupid) question Post by: Carida on November 06, 2008, 10:00:45 am Thank you so much! I'm off to download them all.
-C Title: A (stupid) question Post by: caffeinated.joy on November 06, 2008, 11:20:50 am Actually, you can only patch the latest EP you have installed, which is why it's a good idea to patch each ep as you install it. If you have everything up to AL and try to patch Seasons, the patch will detect a later EP installed and won't be able to do it.
It's not a stupid question :). This is something I found out only by trying myself lol. Title: A (stupid) question Post by: Trepie22 on November 06, 2008, 11:45:13 am caffeinated.joy it does let you install the patch, it just says you will need to patch the most recent EP version as well - at least that's what it told me when I tried. :)
It did an error trying to patch FreeTime though - everything except FreeTime worked but then it decided FreeTime was a no-no. No idea why! Title: A (stupid) question Post by: Carida on November 06, 2008, 12:03:18 pm Oh my.. uninstall reinstall time. Hehe aww well. What's another two hours. Better to do it right, or not do it at all. Thank you both! :)
-C Title: A (stupid) question Post by: ancienthighway on November 06, 2008, 12:46:49 pm Since the game only reads the latest EP, patching earlier EPs is really a question of whether you want to spend the time or not. Some insist on patching all anyway. It really doesn't matter, unless you use one of Numenor's .game starters.
Title: I know I asked this before but... Post by: mhbuck21 on November 07, 2008, 04:02:31 pm I'm still confused about patches. When I've tried to patch each ep, it just gives me a message that says it's already been patched. Even with the latest one, it doesn't install the patch. The message comes up and all I can do is click OK.
Why would it tell me it's patched when I know it isn't (I have several of the glitches the patches are supposed to fix!) :h3lp: Mari |
