Wait a minute. You mean I can't just load the NEW 1.27 patch over the old 1.27 patch?

How the HELL did they manage to do that to us?????

All you have to do is re-install the cd game over the files and then install the patch. You do not have to un-install the game.

OK, thanks, Pathy

(speaking of old farts, I'm not ever going to see 40 again myself)

I still think it was a bit clueless of the guys to make it the same number.

I notice the d/l link hasn't changed since I d/l'ed 127a, how do I know I'm getting 127b?

Did Aaron say that there would be six changes listed on changes.txt, instead of the two listed on the readme at the d/l link?

OK, that worked. I backed up my custom races and pics and stuff, re-installed from the CD, then installed the new 127 patch. The History.txt file now shows four changes, instead of two, and it specifically mentions the weird armor bug.

All's well that ends well. Thanks again, Dracus and Pathy

Thats strange, i had no problems downloading that b patch from shrapnel site. Have you checked your history file in SEIV main folder? It should have 4 entries in v1.27.
