Hi-Playing US, date Aug.'36. Going along fine, when up pops this devil: "Critical Error-Database mismatch(type=6/id3300)already used". Options,Ignore continue, etc. Whichever one I chose, it was CTD. Help. Hugh Browne
 
Have you edited ANY file, or do you have ANY mods installed.
This is usually related to one of the above.
 
Remove the game and then do a fresh reinstall, then just appy patch 1.06C

i got the same thing with a new install of HoI, except id = 2 (also 0, separately, that is, on a different load of HoI.) anyway, as it was a new install i knew that i had not done anything wrong (yeah, right.) :wacko:

so, on a hunch, i deleted the saved game, Germany_1938_September_20.eug (& *.eug.cfg file). problem solved.
 
Fresh install for you as well. :)
