Default TDW Generic Patcher v.168 vs. v.112

Hi,
In the download section still the version of the TDW Generic Patcher is v_1_0_112, instead the one contained in TWOS 2.1.0 is a newer v_1_0_168.

At some point I'd like to patch the stock game after patch 1.2.0 with the Generic Patcher and play the game directly after. Which one should I use? Is the one for TWOS a modified one only to be used for that mod?

Thanks,

Thanks mkiii for your prompt response, I appreciate

I see in the 'old' 112 version files in the MODS folder named

AI_Crew_Damage_Control.zip (for JSGME)
All the torpedoes modified for torpedos failure patches (GenericPatcher add-on).7z (also for JSGME).

These have been taken out in v.168. Do you know if it's good to install them anyway if you are not using TWOS ?

Thanks,

Look in "The Berbsters" tutorials and how to`s, he covers everything you need to know, a lot better than I can,

Ok, thanks, I will, but I'm afraid this one is too specific.
Thanks for any TWOS modder who has changed the TDW patcher to confirm (else I will soon see if it's compatible or not, but I lose a lot of time...)

Hi XS
You should use the current version 168.
You will need to go through each of the 9 patchers carefully selecting the ones which will be relevant for the stock game.
Some patches you will see logically do not apply.

When you have done your selections.
From the "File" tab click on "Check all dependencies"

Thanks The Brebester, I will keep the 168 (or newer) version for the future.
