Hello,

Been looking thru the forums to see if there's a solution to this issue. If it's been addressed would appreciate a point to that direction. Thanks.
I'm experiencing the above. Game installs okay and starts with no problem. But once i get into a scenario this happens.

Any help would be appreciated

Also did the check on language for the game and it say English (United States) so i downloaded the US patch. However, it did mention that the version of the game is 1.1 pre-patched. The US patch doesn't take though. so i redid everything again and tried the UK patch (based on what's happening here = http://www.tiltedmill.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5849). UK Patch was successful but a version check still remained at 1.1

Any clues? and no, game is not illegal copy.

thanks

The first thing I would recommend is uninstall the game. Do a hard drive clean up and defragmentation, then reinstall the game.

It seems that the U.K. version of the game seems to have it's exe file labled "U.S. English" as well, so you probably need the U.K. version of the patch. Since it says "pre-patched" I'm guessing you have the U.K. version of the game. All non-U.S. versions came patched to 1.1.

If that doesn't work, then you may have to uninstall, reinstall, and then try the U.S. patch again.

If you bought your game in a different country than the U.S. or the U.K., which country are you in?

If you are correctly patched to version 1.2 the exe patch file should show a version number similar to mine: 1, 1, 6, 119

These are the version numbers of my exe file patched to 1.2 when viewed from the exe Properties/View/Version menu.
