Grollub -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 9:20:43 AM)

Good job. Thanks.



1275psi -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 10:35:07 AM)

Thanks for the work -

however -why can't we get this patch from the members section, and do it like every other one?
Im absolutely @#$%^&^% if I can figure this out or get it to work - all i get is PW exe errors - extracting, unzipping might be second nature to some, not to me .
Sorry -totally bamboozled>

please don't get me wrong -I just wish this was like all the other patches.
Game on hold for me Im afraid until I figure it out.



michaelm75au -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 10:38:21 AM)

This is a quick release.
The normal Matrix process wasn't available to use due holidays.

We thought that you wanted it quick.

I'll tell Joe to delete it [:D][:D][:D][;)]

1275psi, this is not the usual type of patch which looks for where your game resides and patches it. This is a replacement *.dll and *.exe which you will need to overwrite the files in c:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition. You're getting errors cause you are trying to run the exe NOT from the D:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition folder.
Therefore:
Unzip the two files and then copy them into c:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition
.. this will overwrite the two files and then you can start the game.

I hope this is clear enough, otherwise I'll do a step by step if you like [;)]



1275psi -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 10:50:15 AM)

Thanks n01487477 -an intelligent reply
I'll keep trying -I do understand a bit of this -just cant locate the files ect.

Frustrated!



1275psi -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 10:53:57 AM)

OK, thought I had it -now it asks for passwords?

I am trying to extract to file c:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition -but it says the file is password protected -is that my members password, / my rego code or what?

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr




michaelm75au -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 10:55:48 AM)

07. Fixed some display issues caused by Transfer Ships.

There still seems to be a problem trying to get the bottom panel of the ship transfer in forming a TF to always work.
I have been playing around with it most of the day.
It is only happening with the release version. When I trace the program, it behaves.

What I have discovered is the following:
1. The issue is triggered by 'Manage repairs' screen. Once you call up that screen (even you press Done/Exit without doing anything else), the base 'Form new TF' doesn't want to work.
2. There doesn't SEEM to be any difference between the way the 'Form new TF' logically works between the base and the TF screens. There maybe some value buried elsewhere that is not being set correctly.
3. You can do a work around if it happens. This has worked for me while testing.
(a) Within the base screen, click on the "show" land or group icon
(b) Hit the back button without doing anything.
(c) Click on "Form new TF" and the ships should show up in the bottom panel.

Unzipping the file should not ask a password.

Passwords? that doesn't sound right ... I don't get that, have you copied into the correct folder ?



1275psi -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 11:02:52 AM)

Hi damien?

This is what i am doing
Dowloading patch

Extracting it says files will be downloaded to: so I believe I am right in extracting to : c:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition -thats what I put in the block

I then get asked for a password

Im doing something stupid!



n01487477 -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 11:07:13 AM)

It asks for a password? As Michael says there is no password protection on the file, and there is none on mine. This is what I do and it has none ... can you extract to another folder and then cut and paste them over ?

ADB123 -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 11:18:15 AM)

In a PBEM, does the Japanese player need to install the hot fix first, or can the Allied player install the hot fix first?

Thanks -



Brigs -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 12:30:35 PM)

The install seemed to go ok, but game menu screen says version 1096 (not 1096a). Is this ok or did I screw something up ?

Terminus -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 1:16:24 PM)

What does the date stamp say (right next to the version number)?



hbrsvl -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 1:56:23 PM)

To n01487477-Where did you get the icon for the patch(bundle of books)? When I DLed it all I got was a file folder which I sent to a zip file.

When I extracted it, I got the same "unable to find pw data" error message.

Help!! Thanks, Hugh Browne



frank1970 -> RE: Patch 02 Hot fix (build 1096a) (12/19/2009 2:08:38 PM)

just unpack the files into your WITP AE main directory. It is no setup as you might be used to.
