Having problems getting the 1.04 patch to extract or even update the Birth of Rome game I downloaded from Matrix today.
The updater downloads a the 1.04 patch-but it doesn't apply because in the game start UI corner it says 1.02.
When I checked inside the main game folder I found in a file named PATCHES
the 1.04 patch -but I get an error message when I run the exe. (I've run the exe in the patch file and outside the game and get same result)
[ATTACH]34400[/ATTACH]
And every time I repeat running the patch it also says the game is updated. But the 1.02 in the corner at game start says otherwise.
So I tried downloading the patch separately and All 1.04 patches I downloaded from Matrix, AGEOD and a link provided in the Slitherine forum for a ZIP and WinRar packed 1.04 patches resulted in me downloading compressed 1.04 that [color="#FF0000"]will NOT extract[/color].
I used Explorer, WinRar and 7gZ and none of them can get the 1.04 file out of compression.
I have Espana 1936 game, and Revolution under Siege Demo and Alea Jacta Este Demo and have had NO problems with updating or running the AGEOD engine (full game or demo) or updating Espana 1936 through Matrix (or any other non AGEOD games from Matrix).
So the sum total. The patch I have unextracted will not decompress and all zip file patches appeared corrupted.
I'm running a Win 7 machine.
Can you help?
