Absolutely infuriating patch problem

[Castellon]

When you say you moved the folder do you mean you uninstalled and then reinstalled the game to the new folder?

Does the registry point to the new folder?

Are you 100% sure you downloaded the correct patch?

You obviously have an illegal copy... :rofl:

Accusations like that by members are against board policy.

Ignore the trolls please!

back to what is important, your problem.
If you just moved the files it would not update your registry.

I would suggest following the uninstall directions here:

Those are Instructions for VIc but just replace CK for Vic everywhere and you should be fine.
delete the 1.03B patch from your drive, empty your temp internet files.
download a new copy of the Patch from the Sticky thread at the top of this forum.
reinstall from cd, then just apply the 1.03B patch.

THen reinstall to the default folder and drive.
Then try the patch.

Alright. Somewhat annoying, since my laptop is not connected to the Net yet (so I have to dl the patch, burn it to a CD, and then shift it over to the laptop...) but I'll try your advie.

I don't really understand what you are talking about here?

You must have had access to DL the patch in the first place, you could also just link it to your Desktop.

Whos logo is on the CD and where did you buy it?

What does the registry entry look like after you install the game?

What does it say beside language?

Okay, do you know what you did?

If you are reffering to Grosshaus, I would point out two very important differences.
1) You totally miss read what he said. He was explaining one reason why patches are done the way they are. Responding to your question I might add, he was not accusing you. If he thought you a Pirate you would be banned.
2) He is a MODERATOR!
