An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Mr Grumpy - 02-04-2011 Guys, I have created a Word doc. that allows you to click on any PZC/MC/FWWC title and be taken straight to the relevant changes page at the HPS site, try it out and see what you think, you need to hold down the Ctrl key when you click on the title for the Hyperlink to work and it should automatically connect to the net if you are offline. Let me know if it works OK.......;) Here is a PDF version for those having problems with the doc - and shouldn't require a Ctrl click either :) (added by Ricky B): [attachment=3108] RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Nitram Draw - 02-04-2011 Works for me! RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Compass Rose - 02-04-2011 This is what I see when I open it. ![[Image: pzcdoc.jpg]](http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/4156/pzcdoc.jpg)
RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Mr Grumpy - 02-04-2011 Hmmm that's odd, it works just fine on my home PC and my work PC, both are running XP but use different versions of MS Word. Can you tell me which OS your PC is running (or is it a Mac?) and which version of Word you have please. Anyone else have a problem with this??? :chin: RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Compass Rose - 02-04-2011 I am using XP. Word Pad Version 5.1 Works Version 8.0 After the down load, when I click on file, to automatically opens to Word Pad. If I manually select to open the file in works, all of the game titles can be seen however, the links will not work. RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - -72- - 02-04-2011 I'm using Open Office - and it is working all right for me, however I haven't tried opening it using Wordpad (don't have Works). If I had to guess, it is because of one of those programs Checkmate used to open the file doesn't read a .doc file in the same way that Open Office or MS Word does. (Even Open Office gives you like 3 or 4 different .doc file formats you can use that match up with prior versions of MS Office ... which I guess must have to be some sort of compatibility issue). RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Mr Grumpy - 02-05-2011 Yup, talking to people at my end it would seem you need Word to open this correctly. :( RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Bioman - 02-05-2011 The link takes me to the page that gives a written description of the the changes contained in the patch but not to a page where you can actually download the lateset patch. RE: An easy way to access update/patch information at the HPS site. - Ricky B - 02-05-2011 Foul et al, I added a link to a pdf of the doc and it should work for everyone. Bioman, as you say it is a link to the changes only - as Foul stated but I missed that too until I pdf'd it, not to the update itself.

My intention was never to link to the actual update files but to show the level to which each title was updated to in a user friendly way, without a file like this it is very time consuming to get this info. ;) I have asked Rick to change the instructions on the PDF as the Ctrl key is no longer needed (as he said in post #1). :) |
