Default Re: New patch available (2.12)

Incidentally, the patch fails in the following instance: I had a .txt file command_line_switches.txt in a dominions2/doc folder (can't remember if that folder came with the install or if I added it to hold things like item and spell pdfs and other usermade documentation); when running the patcher it gave error:

This program cannot update the installed Version of Dominions II because of the follwing reason:

C:\Program Files\dominions2\doc\command_line_switches.txt: unknown Version.

I don't know if it's just this filename it didn't like or if any .txt files in the doc folder mess it up; it didn't have any problem with the .html or .pdf files I had in there. Anyway, I just copied the .txt out to desktop, deleted it from doc, patched fine, moved it back in, not a big deal.

However, I can't think of any reason why a usermade text document that isn't even going to be overwritten should cause any problems to a patch install program, just thought I should mention it.
