How to run a pbem in Win 7

[EJ]

Andy or Don,
I followed your instructions. I did the same for the patches BUT the game is NOT being updated. I mean after the patches are extracted to the spmbt folder the game is still showing version 1.012. Do I have to extract them to a certain folder INSIDE the game itself like game data or other? Any remedy for this new complication?

Lets assume you installed the game to a folder you made called games, each patch now has to install to the same path using the browse button on the instaler follow this path once you have highlighted the MBT folder thats the correct path.

Did you change each patch installer's path to point to your new folder as I said above?:

Now try installing your game in its own folder under C: in a new folder you create yourself (call it C:\mygames\spmbt say). Then install all the patches there too - you will have to tell each patch installer where your game is, as they expect the regular \Program Files\Shrapnel Games\... etc.

i.e. in the screen where the installer says "will be installed in the following directory" use the navigator widget to set the target to your new folder, and not the default.
