What is the checksum value for a "clean" install

[M@drox]

In order to confirm a correct install on a new computer, I would like to know the checksum for 1.3a. I have JLQA.

Thank you.


EDIT: Thank you for confirming this!

Thats what I have as well.

I have JLQC...

EDIT: I have HPRC... :wacko:

JLQC is the checksum for a clean 1.3a install

I addeded the checksum info to the "Latest patch is ..." sticky thread

JLQC is the checksum for a clean 1.3a install

1.3A -30.4 Meg (November 18th 2005) Checksum = JLQA

From sticky... I also have a clean install, but HPRC...

Sounds like you do not.

Sounds like you do not.

Whatever. Uninstall - Install + patch. Well, something is still there. Doesn't matter though.

 

[Castellon]

umm, okay.

 

[unmerged(26510)]

umm, okay.

Umm? Well, umm on. You know what I did.

You really need to stop spamming, especially in tech support forum.

I've just performed a clean install - twice, just to make sure - and my checksum is JLQC. A German site states that the checksum of 1.3a should be JLQC, as well (see www.paradox-games.de). I'm curious as to why some people are are getting clean installs with a checksum of JLQA and others (including myself) are getting JLQC. Any ideas?

Same here. Clean install of 1.3a. My checksum is JLQC. The exact string in the upper RH corner of the "initial" screen (where you choose Single Player, among other options) is: Hoi2v1.3a(JLQC).

Mine was a very, very clean install BTW; I had to wipe my hard drive completely and return to 'out of the box' initial conditions.

This is indeed weird.

At least one of the core database files must have a slight difference when compared to the reference 1.3a installation, in order to get such a deviation.

And that constitutes a problem, as there are many, many files. Let met check with the knowledgable people around to see if I can find an explanation.

My checksum was also JLQC.

Same here as well.

Maybe it depends on whether you installed 1.3 then the hot fix or if you installed 1.3a.

Maybe it depends on whether you installed 1.3 then the hot fix or if you installed 1.3a.

FYI: I went directly from 1.2 to 1.3a.

 

[Wolf52]

I went from a clean install direct to 1.3a, so maybe there's a slight difference between using the 1.3a patch and 1.3+hotfix.
