Update issue

Post by Sarnian »

Every time I try and check for updates, the updater fails with the message "Error: Update information for Distant Worlds could not be downloaded. Please contact Matrix Games for help".

My Internet connection is working correctly and the problem has persisted for the last two or three weeks.

I'm not sure what information you need me to send to assist you -please let me know.

sometimes auto updaters just dont work

I've tried the product downloads page at http://www.matrixgames.com/products/379/downloads/ but this just seems to have the 1.0.6.0 patch.

Is this the latest version, or am I looking in the wrong place?

Thats the product page for DW vanilla, you need the ROTS page here

I think it should be the other way around and a DW tag appear in an Armada link, more appropiate that way [:)]
