Re: Patch Notes
I could have been more precise.
Since I read that the patch is incompatible with earlier saves, I moved my save-folder to a backup on my desktop and deleted it from where it usually lives. Then I installed the patch, which created a plain vanilla starter save-folder, which had no record of my having registered. Therefore, when I started, the game thought it was a new install and asked for the 19-digit key.
I created the problem myself by deleting the old save-folder, which wasn't necessary. Most users won't have this problem.
To fix this, since I had no access to my registration key without driving to my office, I just deleted the save-folder created by the patch and pasted in the earlier save-folder that I had backed up.
When I then started over, it gave me the options of New Game and also Continue. One doesn't need to continue the old game; at that point one can just start a ver. 1.1 New Game.
