Status: offline 		I bought Flashpoint Red Storm before it became a Players Edition. I think the upgrade I was allowed to the Players Edition didn't cost anything.

I try to keep up on all patches, but have fallen behind (like I missed the 2.0.13 patch which sounds like it cause major headaches).

Since I had issues with the upgrade to 2.0.14 I decided to start fresh. As the game has been patched through all the different versions up until well current. So I did retail installer - patch 2.0.81 to Players Edition - patch to 2.0.14

Here is my issue.
I have the retail installer for FPRS (before Players Edition)
I have the patch that allows my FPRS (pre PE) to be upgraded to Players Edition
The patch is 2.0.81
I have the FPRS Germany Reforged dlc/add on/mission pack whatever it seems to be called installed.
The current patch is 2.0.14. When I install this version it warns me that I have the most current version with the 2.0.81 patch. Of course that patch was some time ago so it really isn't a more current version.

So if I install the 2.0.14 over the 2.0.81 Players Edition Upgrade, is it now up to date or has the 2.0.14 possibly overwritten files that are needed from the 2.0.81 PE Upgrade. I have launched the game and everything seems to work but ran out time to actually play through a longer and more units scenario/missions.

Status: offline 		I just installed those files in the order listed in the post, but during the installation of Reforged I briefly saw a message that V2.0.10 was being installed. I let the installation proceed and when I started the game and checked the version it was indeed V2.0.10, down from V2.0.14. I reinstalled V2.0.14, reran the game and it was back up to the latest version. I have not yet started a scenario but everything appears to be in order.

Any idea what may have happened here?

Status: offline 		That's a weird one. I will see if I can check out why GR would have installed an updated exe to start with and then why is over wrote the newer 14 build. My guess is is a glitch in the installer program, but I will ask around.
