Dan K Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Greetings, Applied patch 1.31 to base game (already patched to 1.21). Start up screen still shows 1.21. Should this change? 130 and 131 .brz files are in the data folder. Thanks in advance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan K Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Also should add, my editor isn't working. Screen freezes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Yes, it should say 1.31. Are you using a shortcut to an old version that you have deleted? Do you have more than one copy installed (perhaps the short cut references the wrong one)? Do you have more than one .exe file in the folder (perhaps you have both the 1.21 and 1.31 versions for some reason)? Also I don't know if having the "non Battlefront" version impacts on things or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan K Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks for helping. The new patch doesn't install a new .exe. Just the 130 and 131 .brz files in the Data folder and a Miscellaneous folder that has icons etc. I'm willing to venture that it is because it's a Gamersgate version, despite what was said about patch 1.21 allowing further updates. "Battlefront.com however continues to improve CMSF, and we want our retail customers not left stranded. This special v1.21 upgrade "converts" your retail game version of CMSF into a "Battlefront version". After you apply this upgrade you will be able to use any future Battlefront.com patches. No special retail patches will be necessary!" Anyone from Battlefront care to confirm? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 The new patch doesn't install a new .exe. Just the 130 and 131 .brz files in the Data folder a Sounds like your anti-virus is playing with the installer and removing the exe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan K Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Hi Moon, My AV logs didn't show anything and I disabled it. I'm still not getting a new .exe Also the update link from the start menu is showing it updated to 1.31. Other than a complete reinstall, can you recomend anything? I have a lot of games and no trouble running patches. IE the Battlefront Toolbar installed ok in the Misc folder. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan K Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 I ran 1.31 installer on a second computer with no AV running and it is not unpacking a new .exe Can anyone check this? Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan K Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Ok. Found the updated 1.31 exe in a sub folder and all is well. Thanks for all of the help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Not sure why it is installing into a sub-folder. It's possible that the installation path is getting appended on to the path that your Gamersgate version of CMSF is installed to. The 'Paradox 1.21 retail patch' WILL convert your Gamersgate version to a Battlefront eLicense version (because the executable is replaced with one copy-protected by eLicense), but the installation directory will remain the Gamersgate installation path. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
