Update Question

Post by xwormwood »

I have installed complete 5.01 complete and the update 5.01-v5.2.
When i start the game, the Version-Number (displayed in the lower left corner) shows still "V 5.01".
My fault or just a known problem?
I have installed the patch in the same directory of the complete 5.01 game. Does SPWaW wants me to install only on drive C: ? I used my drive E: (game / patch).
Would be nice if someone could give me a little hint what to do or not to do.
Thanx.

If you use teh "browse" button to install to a non-default directory, then the patch for some reason will install to a nested folder INSIDE the SPWaW folder. You need to browse to the parent folder of the SP:WaW install, or check the path before you install.

If there is a Steel Panthers World at War folder nested inside your Steel Panthers World at War folder this is what happened...
