I've ran the auto updater so I think I'm ok, but...

The main menu screen shows that I'm at VERSION 1.0.6.1108r9 - Jan 21 2012 20:45:33

and yet the patch installer program says that I'm up to date and has detected 1.01.24

<scratches head> hmmm, am I "OK"?

Thanks,

Cheeks

It looks that auto updater don`t working properly
Proper way to install game is (manual installation)
You should start from 2

1. Install vanilla game
2. Download and Install latest official patch v1.01.24
http://www.matrixgames.com/products/351/downloads/

3.(optional) Download and Install latest beta patch (attached in first post).

To play latest official version You will have to use .exe from main game folder.
Beta patch is creating separate .exe in BETA2 folder.

Installing beta patch don`t overwrite official version because they using separate .exe to run.

never mind. After rereading "what's new", I found my answer.
