Unfair!

Version 2.02 is the one that comes with CD. All you need is to make a fresh install and apply the patch.

It says "Some file you tried to patch are locked or missing.Patch not applied"

I think that I recall that the game must have been run at least once after a fresh install before patching it, for only then some needed directories are created...

...but maybe I recall this wrongly, for this weirdness should be easy to fix for these patches.

OSX 10.3.9

Oh and where can I get a MAC(<===Read)Version of the 2.15 patch?

Slimefold had the same problem in 2004, the discussion and the solution are in the "Dominions II Technical/Hardware issues" thread, locked on the top of the forum.

I pasted the most important message here:

Quote:

Problem solved! Dominions 2.02 gets installed in read-only mode. iPatch doesn't override the read-only flag. Before running iPatch, it is necessary to Command-I on the installed dominions2 application and set it to read/write. Then iPatch works fine, straight from 2.02 to 2.14.

Hopefully, iPatch's upcoming new Version will have a more helpful error message, or be able to override read-only (probably a security violation/impossibility, though).

Thanks for the help, Johan!

Yup! I had the same problem, too, but it was an easy solution.
