Requesting advice regarding patches - ajtateson - 02-21-2008

Hello one-and-all, this is a shameless call for help from a boot-camp rookie new to online gaming.

My concern is over the various patches available for all three titles in the CM series. I currently have all three games but just the ordinary, vanilla, v 1.0 just as it comes out of the box. Do I have to make sure that I have the same version as an opponent I am playing via PBEM?
If so can you let me know where I can download the EUROPEAN patches from?
I have found the US patches on Battlefront.com which also provides a link to the European patches but this link did not work so I am stuck at the moment.

I do apologise if this leaves you more experienced gamers groaning and cursing but just think, if you can get me up and runing I should provide some cannon-fodder for you over the coming months!!!
I would be very grateful if someone could spend a couple of minutes pointing me in the right direction.

Thanks very much,

Andy

ok the pacht of CMAK version 1.03 could be applyed to any versio european (CDV) or us (Batlefront). the link at battlefront site is working
http://www.battlefront.com/downloads.html here you find all the links to all the patch

with CMBB since you have version1.0 you need to apply all three patch 1.01, 1.02, 1.03 the link to alternate european site is working any way you have the direct link here http://www.3dgamers.com/games/combatmission2/downloads/ here you find us and european patches.

with the patch fro CMBO is the 1.12 there is a popo up that say that all the versions buy after 2001 are 1.12 and do not need any patch but any way it let you download the patch. is on the same link as about.

One question are you sure that all the games are version 1.0? because i recently i bought a companion thta have the three game in there and all of them are up to day i did not need to patch any of them. You buy it on e bay?

Hi mate, I don't play ancient old CMBO myself so can't help you with patches for it, but try Redbears suggestions first, then try this below for CDV if you have to..:)

Patch CMAK first because it's easier, just go here and download the 1.03 patch straight on top of your 1.0 game -

CMBB patching is a bit more complicated because you have to download each of the 3 patches separately (unless they've altered the procedure)
You say you've got game version 1.0, in which case go to the patches below and download them one after the other in this order..:)

v1.01 -
http://www.3dgamers.com/dlselect/games/combatmission2/cmbb_v1_01_patch.exe.html

v1.02 -
http://www.3dgamers.com/dlselect/games/combatmission2/cmbb_v1_02_patch.exe.html

v1.03
http://www.3dgamers.com/dlselect/games/combatmission2/cmbb_v1_03_patch.exe.html

Redbear & POS,

Thanks very much for the advice. I appreciate you taking the time to help me out. I will give it a go and hopefully be in business by the weekend.

In answer to your question, Redbear, they are all version 1.0 I'm afraid. I got each of the games separately on eBay second-hand.

Andy

... well, when I sadly watch another 'cunning plan' go up in smoke due to Der K's ruthless tactical brilliance .. I feel like selling games, computer, shirt, brain ....

Sicko is right. Just tried to install CMAK and Disk 2 is corrupted and won't install - looks like I'll just be playing CMBB for a while.
Serves me right for being a cheap-skate I guess!
