Holien Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 OK So after 7 years my new PC has arrived and time to get the games onto it. I want to make sure I only download what I need and have looked at the following patch page. So I have read comments on this forum that you just need Engine 4 all in one installer as it will include everything below it... Yet this patch page states load oldest to newest? So I look at latest patch version and the Readme says So I have to already have a working copy before loading the patch? Should I be looking for another download page as I can see this might have been the case a while ago? Or should I ignore text and just download the 4.03 patch file and that includes everything? Am I being a dunce? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 These are PATCHES that require a copy of the game to be already installed. If you want the All-in-one installer for each game you will need to go into your ACCOUNT. Login from the main Battlefront page (upper right) > 'My Orders' link > look for the order that has your latest version of the game (reviewing each order by clicking the 'Click to view' link); this can be either a fairly recent purchase of any of the games or (most likely) the 4.0 Upgrade for each game. This will have the link to the all-in-one installer for that game. If you didn't purchase a 4.0 Upgrade for a game, then the 3.0 Upgrades typically should have the fully patch 3.x version of the game. Anything earlier than this will NOT have an all-in-one installer. Typically you shouldn't need to patch or install anything else for the game, all patches and modules (if there are any) should be included in this installer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holien Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 OK I think I know what I need to do, thanks for helping, I am getting overwhelmed with all the different update processes, not a battlefront issue, just me trying to get the new pc up to same position of old pc before I switch over. I just discovered today new pc's don't have cd rom drives, makes sense but I had not clocked the spec did not have a cd rom. It then took me ages wading through Microsoft site to try and get office 2013 on the new pc as my cd rom with the software is redundant. So I guess I had in my mind looking for the link for the all in one installer would be on the patch page but the link is hidden within my orders. I will explore this in the morning.... Thank you for your reply. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holien Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Well I have got Red Thunder working but CMBN is eluding me with the right activation codes. My original version code says it is invalid as does version 2 and I think 3 I have got the following showing as authorised but game will not play. What is the sequence for activation? My google fuu has failed me on the forum and I am getting a tad frustrated by this license mularky roll on Steam for Cold Wars.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holien Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 OK I have had my daily walk of exercise and started the process again by setting up a word doc with license keys as going in and out of orders is a pain and I was getting lost in list. It looks like I needed Engine 3 Key and that seems to have worked, so problem solved... (I hope...) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docstryder Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Hi, I just purchased CBNM and my order just gives me an activation code, that's it. This is no link to an All in One install 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Are you looking at your 'order' in an email or are you looking at your Account online ? Both should include a link to the 'Sharefile' (hosting service) download of the game. The directions for finding the file are mentioned in my previous post in this thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
