Zulu -> Patch 2.41 is out! (4/4/2005 11:24:27 AM)

I got it here
ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/UncommonValor/UV-Patch-v241.zip

Thanks Matrix!




dherche -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/4/2005 3:34:56 PM)

Do you need 2.40 installed or can you install over 2.30?




Bodhi -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/4/2005 4:06:07 PM)

Here's what the download page currently says:

quote:


2005 APR 4 - Uncommon Valor Patch v.2.41 (1.2 MB)
This is a comprehensive patch. No previous patches required. Includes 11 bug fixes and 4 player requested enhancements.



Not too sure I believe the "no previous patches required" bit though. I'd have thought you'd need to do the incremental patches to 2.3 first. Anyone have the offical line on this?




Zulu -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/4/2005 5:20:47 PM)

I also think you need to have either 2.3 or 2.4 already installed: this is what Erik Rutin said in an earlier thread, but I do not know if it is official. More importantly: does the new patch work? (I had not time to try it yet)




Bodhi -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/5/2005 12:28:43 AM)

Here's what it says in the "Press Releases, News and Events from Matrix" forum above.

quote:


Matrix Games and 2by3 Games (www.2by3games.com) are very excited to release the final 2.41 update for Uncommon Valor, which updates the 2.30 and 2.40 versions with additional fixes based on player feedback.


I'm more inclined to believe this than what's posted on the download page.




Sergeant -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/5/2005 7:00:15 AM)

[&:] I cannot get it to install. I keep getting an error message that the file type is not recognized by microsoft systems information. What am I doing wrong? All prior downloads (except 240) worked fine!

Sergeant




michaelm75au -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/5/2005 12:56:02 PM)

You need to be on version 2.30 or higher in order to install 2.41
The patch is basically a new executable only.

And yes. Coastwatchers no longer have unlimited sight.[:D]

Welcome.

What operating system are you running?
It sounds like MSI does not recognise the file.

Thanks for the welcome.
I am running Windows 98. Patch 241 shows up as a zip file - unlike previous patchs. I tried two downloads first saving it to the Patches file inside UV. Second opening from the site to temp widows file. Same results. Am I doomed to playing 2.30 for ever more?

Erik Rutins -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/6/2005 1:49:12 AM)

Within the zip file should be an exe installer. Run the installer and it will place the right files in the right places. This is not just an exe replacement, I believe one or two other files were also changed.

This was an error on the download page. v2.41 replaces v2.40 - you only need to be updated to v2.30 in order to apply v2.41 but you do need to get to the v2.30 level using previous patched first. The download page has been updated to remove the incorrect text.

Patch installed - everything looks good - no coastwatcher problem, everything else looks tight.
IN time for anniversary of 1942 events! Hard at work proving to my australian friends what would have happened if Japan had taken Port Moresby.




timtom -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/7/2005 3:59:03 AM)

Well, all my C-47's just disappeared [X(][&:][:@][:(]

Did you start a new game or a saved game?




jeffs -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/7/2005 9:01:05 AM)

It seems to be working....One of my S boats hit a mine[X(][:(]




timtom -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/7/2005 2:25:00 PM)

New game, scn.7 PBEM. Ran a test against the AI, and the same thing happened. One sdq is entirely stripped of its aircraft, three sdq's loose most of theirs, the remaining sqd. gains a few aircraft. Could I ask someone to boot up this scn. to see whether it's just me or if it's general?




USSMaine -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 12:46:12 AM)

I loaded up scen 7 and I have C47s....




timtom -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 1:24:18 AM)

Lucky SoB, you! [:)] It appears my problem can be circumvented by starting the scn.7 up under patch 2.30, then installing 2.41 after the first turn (touch wood). Happily, my opponent, Grunt6971, has gracefully accepted a restart.

Oh, did you run the first turn? It's only then they disappear, mind...

Well - that's a horse (or C47) of a different color ....

On start of Scen 7 - I have 63 ready C47s
After doing nothing for turn 1 (just hitting end turn), there are 23 ready C47s....
So you are correct Timtom - something is amiss




bryanh06 -> still too many pilots!! RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 3:50:14 AM)

I figured that the patch would reset my overstaffed squadrons but this doesn't seem to be the case. I've run several turns and I still have several squadrons with many more than number of planes+3 pilots -- one VMF still has 197 pilots for 24 F4Fs -- what gives? How hard is it for the program to strip out the overage (hopefully those with the least experience) and send them back to the pool?

Bryan




timtom -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 3:52:19 AM)

Not so lucky SoB, then...[;)]




CatLord -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 1:32:11 PM)

Check the bug forum, apparently C-47 are disappearing when using paratroopers (or are the troopers disappearing, or both [:D])....

Cat





Denniss -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 1:54:25 PM)

The patch was not designed to reduce overstacked units to reduce pilots - it only affects new pilots coming in.

A question to the C-47 problem :
Do you loose planes or do they become damaged ?
If you loose planes, do you loose pilots as well ?
Do they have to fly or does it happen even if they sit around drinking coffee/beer (single unit/all C-47 units) ?




timtom -> RE: Patch 2.41 is out! (4/8/2005 2:49:30 PM)

Q1: Loose planes
Q2: Planes only
Q3: No flights by any units (4/5 units affected)

I suspect you can just see for yourself. Boot up scn.7, run the first turn. The planes go AWOL on turn two.

[&o]SUCCESS... I saw your post about winzip & that is when I realized that my winzip was missing from my system. So I spent 3 hours today searching disks from my old computer & re-installed a Beta version. All is well now & I have both 240 and 241 loaded up & running.
Must be early senility on my part or just CRS.... Thanks for the idea, Sir.
I wonder if I should mention this lapse on my VA disability claim??? Hmmm....
