I've had this problem with all of the .exe self-install files.

The solution seemed to be to move the Space Empires IV Gold folder to the root of my 'C' drive. For some reason the insaller software he is using doesn't like long directory structures. This not very good since most people will have their SE4 installed to the default directory.

Hope this helps..

Chris.

Sinapus - got it (I was looking for extra blank lines). Thanks for the help - and thanks to Mephisto for quickly patching that bug as well as the others.

Mad_Dog - all four Versions are posted at the beginning of this thread:

(1) Full Version (all files) via zip file (old method);

(2) Patch Version (files to update gold CD Version) via zip file (old method);

(3) Full Version (all files) via installer (new method); and

(4) Patch Version (files to update gold CD Version) via installer (new method).

-TG

Hello. I'm having some issues with the klingons...something to do with the speech file. I copied the new Klingon Speech file over the old one but still no dice. I aslo had the Colonials issue but it seems that was addressed. Thanks

Actually, you can just not agree to the path the install program is suggesting and then choose any other folder you want to extract the files to. What exactly is the problem? Doesn't it install to the desired directory or doesn't it even start. If so, you don't have to have the patch in the SE4 folder.
Does anybody else has tried the exe?

I installed the new files on two computers. In both cases I put them in a dummy directory and then copied them to where I wanted them which was not the standard TDM-ModPack directory.
