Patch 1 is now available for both Director's Cut and Privateer!

[unmerged(191511)]

I still have 1.10 as well for the Directors from Impulse. Still getting a lot of crashes, one I am on happens when I try to do any save, whatsoever past a certain game date.

I hope 1.12 hits Impulse soon, or, is there a way I can get it for myself?

 

[unmerged(191773)]

Best thing I did this week was to buy this game.

Worst thing was buy it from steam.

Still no patch (runtime error)

 

[unmerged(192646)]

steam?

I used steam once, now i use www.direct2drive.com as they let you uninstall/reinstall without charge, well, at least as of today they have which is 1-25-10. They have a download manager too that i use. Now if I can just get this game to work.

 

[unmerged(191773)]

Hi all!

FOR STEAM AND IMPULSE USERS:
DO NOT INSTALL these patches. You will get your versions straight from Steam and Impulse later!

OK How much later?

Should I wait till 2011?

 

[unmerged(191773)]

I have had enough. I am going out and buying a retail copy. Why should i buy anything more from steam if it is not going to be supported?

 

[RisingSun]

Well i got mine from D2D, glad i didnt pay much for it, only $5 lol. Funny i still dont see any patch for EIC atm. That suck!
*******************
All you need to do is run the option (update the patch) while ingame, this should startup once you install the game already.

Steam

I purchased mine from Steam a few months ago and had no problem patching it to 1.12 recently. Not sure when the patch became available but it is apparently on Steam now since I downloaded it fine last week.

 

[Mukashi]

What exactly is the correct order of installing this game and patches? If I have both Director's Cut and Privateer, should I be installing both patches, or just one of those? Should I install Privateer before installing the Director's Cut patch, or after? When should Pirate Bay and Battle of Trafalgar be installed in that sequence also?

Got my copy, COLLECTION from GamersGate so it's all the bundle and installed in order:

1) EiC
2) Privateer
3) Trafalgar
4) Director's cut
5) Pirate bay (I forgot to Dl it so I did it last lol)

What exactly do I need to patch, in what order and what are the current version numbers?
Then what game should I launch? I see different links on the desktop now...

 

[unmerged(140324)]

Basically there's no specific order except Pirate Bay and Pirate Bay patch 1 should be installed before Designer's Cut and Privateer. But if everything seems to work it's ok.

I've experienced several crashes to desktop, mostly during the 3d battle, some others AFTER the 3d battle. There seems to be a consistency when the fleet is carrying a diplomatic letter (100% times, I repeated this battle 3 times, I won it 3 times and it CTD 3 times), other times, there's no clue it just CTD with some consistence but I have no clues on the why.

Is there a log to submit to help solving this problem? If so, where is it?

Please paste here the log.html after the crash from the folder the game is installed to. Installing only EIC, Designer's Cut and then Privateer could help to rule out if this problem is related to other addons or their installation order.

I suppose logs are generated only in case of CTD, I hope so since last game I had no CTD.
In any case I hope you can tell me if it's a matter of patching or not.

Problem being that GG files need to be REdownloaded not just reinstalled and since it's a lenghty procedure, I would really like to know FOR SURE if I should do it. Thanks for your time and help in any case.

According to the log your East India Company is up to date. You can doublecheck with the "Check for updates" button in the options menu. Unfortunately I can't give you straight answer because we haven't run into crashes related to diplomatic items before. The order the addons are installed can cause some trouble, including crashes at tactical battle.

According to the log your East India Company is up to date. You can doublecheck with the "Check for updates" button in the options menu. Unfortunately I can't give you straight answer because we haven't run into crashes related to diplomatic items before. The order the addons are installed can cause some trouble, including crashes at tactical battle.

I had suspected so and have uninstalled, cleared registry, rebooted and am already redownloading the whole bundle and patches.

Would you be so kind as to tell me exactly in what order I should install EiC, Pvtr, Pb, BoT and Dc and that includes eventual patching of singular items. That would really help a lot so I don't have to do that again... I hope.

I'd go with EIC -> Pb -> DC -> Pvtr -> BoT. I'm not sure if the addons from GG already are patched to max or not but when you install one addon you should patch it if available and then move to next one.

All right. I suppose you mean to install each one in the order you just mentioned and then, after the install, launch the game and check for updates. 40 more mins to go for EiC. I think 1 hour to dl the game is a long time to wait but the size is huge. 200k/sec is not a bad DL, I am a strong supporter of GG so I understand how big their server network must be to support all these DLs.

Meanwhile no, the GG bundle (of which I only saw so far EiC itself, came with check for updates button and I updated so I guess it's on 1.0 by default). Thanks for your help I'll let you know.

Just don't update EIC to Designer's Cut before you've installed Pb. I just noticed that after installation the GamersGate downloader gives you an option to "keep the temporary files". Use this option to avoid downloading everything again if something does go wrong.

Yeah Im not gonna make the same mistake twice.

So the order is:

EiC
Patch 1.06
Pirate bay
Patch 1
Director's Cut
Check for patch (if any, update)
Privateer
Check for patch (if any, update)
Battle of Trafalgar
Check for Patch (if any, update)

Correct? I am right now installing EiC and downloading Pirate Bay. The GG page lists patch 1.06 but not a patch named Patch 1 for Pir8 Bay...

Edit: Installed EiC and it asked me to DL and install eic_designers_cut_patch_1_en.zip

So you see, it's a bit misleading. Well I can't proceed without your help because GG goes straight to install the files after the download, so I'll wait for your answer. Please be as detailed as you can, I want to play

Yes, install whatever patch is available for Pb. If the ingame dialog asks you to download and install Designer's Cut it won't automatically install it to your computer, it's just a download link. (unless it's some dialog from GG, in that case I don't know)

One thing you could try is not to install Pirate Bay, which is the source of the most problems. Install the rest of the addons, or only EIC+DC, and see if the original issues with the game are fixed. Then we could think how to get Pb installed as well.
