I've just downloaded the new update, but when I try to install it - to the given directory - it's says that it's invalid... I've tried to just choose different folders from the installed game, like "graphics" etc. but it does'nt work.

I've downloaded the UK version (I live in europe) the game was bought over the internet, and on the back cover, in the bottom it says uk. I've also tried to install the US version, but the same happens...

If you have an answer to that can help resolve the issues please write (prefer e-mail)

If you have a legitimate boxed retail version of the game you, you need the UK patch:

http://www.immortalcities.com/cotn/files/CotN_v1.3_UK.exe

If that patch doesn't install it may be because your game may a burned copy and not an original, hence the "invalid version" error message. Or, there is a U.S. english version of the game in your UK box for some reason. The U.S. version of the patch is here:

http://www.immortalcities.com/cotn/files/CotN_v1.3_US.exe

Digital download versions of the game may requires special versions of the patch from the vendor you bought the game from, e.g., TryMedia, Direct2Drive, Steam.

Lyle ended up fixing this by searching for the Children of the Nile executable (CotN.exe) on his hard drive, and inputting that path into the installer.
