    Patch downloads.

    in CM2 General Tech Support

    Posted

    Hi all.

    I have tried downloading the patches for CMFI  and CMBN, which seem to download ok.

    However when i try to open the files, i get this error notification for both games;

                                                 " Adobe reader could not open CMFI Windows v201 patch (1).rar because it is iether not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged, (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."

    Anyone got any ideas? Tia.

    There is a step 1b. Unzip the installer archive. Make sure you do that into a clean empty folder. I recomend right clicking on the .zip file and choosing "Extract to <name of directory here>". Then you can find the installer to run in step 2 inside that sub directory.

    Thanks IanL,

    All up and running, not quite sure how i did it, but i did!!

    Appreciate it, thanks again, Ian.B)

    I'm unclear what you mean.  There's three distinct phases:

    1. Successfully downloading an installer (you only need one, either Full or Update)

    2.  Successfully running the installer and having a updated installation

    3.  Successfully licensing


    Sounds to me that you might not have completed the first phase, which means you didn't do the second phase, which means you can not do the third phase.  Did you successfully run an installer?  You confirm that by checking the EXE in your CMFI folder.  If it doesn't have a 2017 creation date and a v2.00 number than you need to focus on getting the installation complete first.

    Thanks Steve,

    I have successfully downloaded the installer, i,m on windows and downloaded both options, dunno whether that makes a differance or not??

    It,s running the installer i can,t seem to do.

    Havn,t got to licensing stage yet!!

    Thanks for your reply earlier Steve.

    Unfortunately i still cant get to the CMFI activate new products.

    Installers all downloaded, but just hanging around in file format, i don,t get the option to "run" them.

    I did read the option of changing the name in the properties thingy, but not confident enough to know what to change!!

    Just really need to know where or how to get the file open, pretty happy to have a go with all the license keys input when it comes to it.

                                                          I know we will get there in the end, we always do! Regards, Ian.

    I,ve just purchased the upgrade and downloaded, where does it go from there?? Clicked on activate modules, doesn,t seem to be an option for CMFI.

    I extracted the files to CMFI, but not showing as upgraded when i open the game.

    Anyone have any ideas as to where to put the upgrade files?? I assumed there would be a desktop icon created.

                                                   Thanks in advance, Ian.

    Nope: "and the Upgrade mega pack with all 5 Families covered (including CMFI)"

    I was on the understanding the mega pack didn,t include CMFI, this will be purchased seperately. If this is not the case, then i have slipped up, cos i only purchased the CMBN upgrade, as i don,t own any of the other titles included in the big bundle, ooops!!:(

    Edit; My bad, just checked, big bundle DOES cover CMFI! Oh well, just have to purchase the CMFI upgrade, when the time comes.

    License key for 4.0 Upgrade

    Still downloading.  I purchased the mega-bundle, and am up-to-to date on all upgrades and patches for all WWII titles, and I have a PC, so I am downloading al the Windows options. But what's the difference between, say, "CM Normandy 4.0 Full Windows" and "CM Normandy Upgrade 4 Windows" choices (size difference is huge, 4 GB and 63 MB, respectively)?  Is the smaller download just the installer, versus the actual upgrade?

    +1 to that. Also, once downloaded, where do you extract it to? I,ve tried various locations, but with no success.

    Depends. Do you have a way to look to see if someone is standing to the side waiting for you to open your door before they throw a grenade inside? If you don't have a trainable surveillance camera or a guard dog in the yard, your best bet is to grab a riot gun, go out the back door, and sneak around the side to see if somebody is out there. Of course, there is always the possibility that there is an MG sited to cut you down as you come around the corner. Maybe you should play it safe and just call down some artillery to lay down some WP to sanitize the area. Life is such a crap shoot.

    :(

    Right ho Micheal, i,ll try sending our 13 yr old Labrador out first, will take him a bit of time tho, cos his back legs are going, but if he doesn,t get it, it should be safe. I only want to put the milk bottle,s out!!! :eek:
