Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
FWIW, I successfully installed patch 4 over the 1.84 Version. I was not able to do this with previous patches; had to reinstall first.

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
Atrocities, check my post a little back in this thread. You just have to copy your se4 dir and apply the patch to that dir. Worked fine for me on 2 different computers.
Edit: patch applied onto v.1.84

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
In the event you cannot install the new patch over 1.84 and have to re-install - you just need to apply the 1.91 patch over the install, it includes all previous patches already.  |

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
The installer is just picky about the time stamp on your .exe. We had that problem many times during beta and Aaron cannot do a thing about it since the instller is a stock installer from a big company. The date of your .exe may change due to time zone settings and winter/summer time.

1. The new patch WILL not install over current Version.
2. One must resinstall SEIV
3. Update to Patch for 1.67 (Whatever patch that is)
4. Install new patch.
5. Copy over old files. (Or install over previous Version.)
Am I missing anything?

do i really have to reinstall?

This has been known in earlier patches aswell.
As stated it's due to the timestamp on the exe.
for some (as me) the upgrade works perfect, but for some a reinstall i s required.
And as already stated, if you reinstall you only have to apply the current patch.
If you wish to keep any extra shipsets you can install over your old copy before upgrading if the upgrade doesn't work on your current exe.
(I had to do this with 1.84) |
