Default CD question

This is not a big thing, just a convenience. I am not expecting a positive answer, but I have nothing to lose either.

I bought the CD version several years ago. I think the executable is from 2005. I don't remember the version (5?) as obviously I have the game fully patched/installed.

I was wondering if Shrapnel offers for those of us who have the CD version, and old CD version, an alternate, already patched, setup file for the game, to download.

As I said it is not a big thing, it's not like I install the game every month, but it would be nice to have a newer setup file for obvious reasons, speed, convenience, less chance for a f-up during a fresh installation with all the patches, etc.
But mainly convenience.

Default Re: CD question

If you bought the CD in 2005 that will be V1

What we have is what's on the DL page now.....consolidation patches that will bring game up-to-date in fewer steps than individual yearly patches. Right now that's three steps from V1

Years ago, i grabbed me a version of Install Creator. Patched my version 1 to the newest one and made myself a new Installer out of my patched folder. As you can see on the picture you can gave it a nice structure "out of the box". A selfextracting .exe of a zip-file made after patching your game, would be the same for sure.
