When I try to redo the directX its asking me which folder to install it in. Usually they would prefill a folder. I also have the dll issue.

Since I have no idea where I should officially put the directx, does anyone have a suggestion?

thanks

Maybe it justs asks where to unpack temporary files for installation?

Will this fix be available from the members downloads or whatever its called at some time? Works best for me; avoids all above issues.

OMG, just read 1st post again and read that in a week or so this'll be on the installers system. Sorry.

If I load an existing 1.05 save game file from my turn 1 (i.e., pre-end turn) save will it function with that save, or
Should I start a new game.
I'm only 7 turns in, so it's not a big deal if I have to start over.

On Steam, if we are opting IN to the Beta, is this hotfix in the current beta there?

I can switch back, certainly, but the logical next question is whether the update to Steam will be forthcoming sooner than later. Do you have an ETA of the Steam update?

since the v1.08.06 is just an executable hotfix... one probably could just overwrite the WarInTheEast.exe in the Steam installation folder with the Hotfix version. Be sure to copy the Steam WarInTheEast.exe someplace safe in case it doesn't work out due to Steam pickiness.

What I'm actually doing is copying my save file from the directory Steam uses and back into the Matrix location. Working flawlessly. Of course, not everyone keeps both versions. And I'll move it back at some point, too, because I like to log my play hourse.

Matrix needs to build and verify/test a new installer. This is planned for next week and will be available for Matrix and Steam version.
