patch v4.5 from v4.4

Post by robdam »

I patched my v4.4 to v4.5. Game still says v4.4 on the scenario screen. When I patched, was told patch was successful. Not sure what's going on....any ideas?

Are you sure you patched it to the right directory? The first WAW patch I did created a SPWAW sub directory in the SPWAW main directory. I found it hard to get the target directory right as I didn't use the path suggested by the game when I first installed. Took me a couple of patches to get it right.

Yep, that was it. It's not @ all a very "user friendly" patch.

A-It said the patch was successful when in fact it wasn't

B- The patch prompts you for a target folder which when directed to said target folder it goes ahead and creates a subfolder....makes no sense whatsoever. @ least the game works! Thank you for your response
