That sucks....

Sounds like you need a download manager program, maybe?

I just tried downloading the patch this morning and didn't run into any disconnect errors. Could have just been a busy time for the server that day or something else interfering.

Are you still having issues?

Yes , it is damn frustating , it seem that once disconnected , I cant resume the download , it keep gving me invalid user name error ..and try four times ..same thing and the last time it was down to 97 % and it cut off...

and I also understand that there is one smaller patch 1.03 -1.04 which is only aobut 6MB...why this is not avalaible ???

I see discussion of 1.04, but gather this is a beta version. Does anyone know with confidence when the "real" 1.04 will be out?

I heard from Erik, who indicates it will be awhile until a patch CD is released...possibly as late as Xmas or thereabouts.

That's bad news for me, but I'll keep trying for the next couple of months to see whether there's a way to get this beast downloaded.

p.s. 9/13 Haven't seen signs of 1.04 yet--is it posted somewhere?

Any sign of 1.04 yet? What's the latest?

Today is release day, I was informed.

Would it possible for the beta brigade or some users donate their time and CD's to send these registered users a copy of the updates on CD. I would do this if I fot recompensed for postage....Jason you could forward the name and address to the person who volunteered. That way we as volunteers know that the user is good as gold.
 
any ideas?

Barker of course I can't speak for Jason or Matrix  but in my opinion if you feel strongly about it go for it [:)]

marcbarker · Post by **marcbarker** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 6:16 am

Not my job....Jason and the Brigade took on the responsibility, it is up to them to say yeah or neah...i am just one with meaningless ideas and bad suggestions..lol

marcbarker · Post by **marcbarker** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 6:24 am

besides......this is how it Could work

1. email from Jason or his designated suuragate as to who gets the cd. All other emails will be ignored....lol
2. confirm the cd with an email to the registered user
3. send invoice of exact shipping + 0.05 for shipping and handling and material and CD
4. After invoice is recieved the Update would be copied to cd and shipped the next day.
5. Overseas Users same deal exact shipping +.05. They would have choices as to how it is shipped of course
a. The flash
b. Derrigable
c. Sailing Vessel

6. After the CD is recieved the User would notify whomever as to everything is fine
7. Also on this CD there would be the other Updates that I could find.

If a user feels the urge and wishes to donate more after the fact feel free. All invoices would be accomplished through Pay PAL.

Would this work

I understand that downloading the rather big patch may be an issue for many people, but is the whole hassle with shipping cd necessary? One can always go to an internet cafe, download the patch there and have it burnt to a cd for a small fee...

marcbarker · Post by **marcbarker** » Tue Sep 16, 2008 9:26 am

I was offering is all postage maybe cheper then the hassle...in the states it will be what about 1.25 if not less. overseas maybe 5.00 or 2.5 pounds or 2 euros.When I start up my truck that is 2 dollars in gas....lol I was just trying to help

Question: When 1.04 does appear, will it resolve the Vista compatibility issue? I am specifically wondering whether I will be able to uncheck the "disable desktop composition" box and "run as Windows 98/ME". Anyone know?

As to discs and such, I make this offer: if anyone is willing to burn one for me (we don't all have that capability, nor are internet cafes available), I'd happily pay the postage and cost of the CD. I'd need to know how to install it, unless that was somehow on the disc...but otherwise, that would seem to solve the Godzilla download problem.

Someone privately offered to do this, and I'm much appreciative...but I strongly feel I should pay for any expenses involved.

Update: I'm still hoping Jason or someone will address the question about compatibility, when there's a moment to do so.

On the other part, the CD--I just want to thank the several people who have privately contacted me, offering to do this for me. I don't want to get sloppyfaced about it, but you know, it really is impressive that people would do this, unbidden, for a complete stranger. I hope I remembered to thank everyone privately, but if I failed to do so, please accept this as my heartfelt expression of appreciation.

I'm currently communicating to someone who lives in a nearby state, so we'll see what transpires. In any case, it won't hurt me to wait awhile more.

I'm still hoping to get a response to my previous post. Also, I have some additional 1.04 installation questions. Is there something I have to do with previous download/updates before installing 1.04? In the past, with any update with any game I've patched, I just downloaded and activated the patch, and that was that. Is this one more complicated?

Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks.

Old updates are not required as 1.04 is cumulative and nothing needs to be done to prepare for 1.04.

Once you've downloaded the update, unzip it and double click on the EXE.

Follow the installation instructions and you're good to go.

Keep your serial number handy.
