our updates are always cumulative meaning they contain all previous fixes and expansions. So you only ever need the latest update of a Phobetor game to get all the benefits.

Regards,

Status: offline 		So, to install the game, we only have to launch 1.08update, not 1.03setup first (so the old setup is obsolete and absolutely useless). Okay.
So it should have been named 1.08version, rather than 1.08update (it is made to be able to update on nothing).

Status: offline 		no,

you still need the 1.03 setup, as that's the base game, the latest update is 1.08 which is a cumulative (contains all the latest fixes etc) but you still need the base game installed, which the latest setup version as of yet, is 1.03, or was the last time i looked,...


so to recap,

if you have the game already installed, you only now need 1.08 installing,...

if you don't atm have the game installed, you need the installer, which is version 1.03, then once this is installed, you can either do a auto in game update which will download and install 1.08 or manually download and install 1.08.





seems someone had removed or deleted the core, which means atm, the main base game installer has been removed, so you would need to contact support and get a new download link until it's replaced if you needed it to reinstall the base core game.

i'll report it to support so they can fix it

this version 1.03, I had already downloaded it before (and I have it at now), but it's not in my member area (my game is registered).

Status: offline 		added the information above, for some reason the core has been removed or replaced, it will be sorted and fixed asap, but for now if you need it, you will need to contact support

http://www.matrixgames.com/support/

as the members auto login and download has removed the core and left the older beta in it's place

Status: offline 		Thanks for the update!

So, will the auto-update from the game/Matrix splash screen work? Iam downloading it now and the installer reads v1.08. In game main screen reads now v1.08-xxxxxxx, so all went well with the auto-update!
