[0.7.10] Install Problem

When I expand, ie., drop the 0.7.10 rar files, I appear to overwrite the game. The launcher runs but gives an error:

Failed to Initialize Player
Could..... not preload global game manager #0 i=0

I can reload the 0.7.8 patch to restore the game to 0.7.8, but again overwriting with the rar files causes the game not to fail start from the launcher. I assume I am dropping the rar file in the wrong place. However, this is the same place I successfully used to install 0.7.9 Which folder from rar should I be drag-dropping on which folder of the program?

Any advice?

[0.7.10] Install Problem

I am running Windows 8.1. I can see the RAR files. I specifically need to know which folder/file to highlight in RAR and which folder to highlight in Slitherine using EXTRACT. The options I tried led to numerous errors listed in RAR [ie., cannot create ...] and no joy. The option I used for 0.7.9 causes failure in 0.7.10 of the Launch program to start the Player. Sorry.

Hello Joseph,

Apologies for the inconveniences. I will upload a visual guide during the day explaining the patching process.

Thank you very much. This worked. [RAR] and I are not close.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

If you're using Windows 8, Unpacker is your friend. While figuring out where it is really going to drop stuff is not trivial, I use it to yank the files out of the rar file and then copy them to where they need to go.
