Due to game crashes over the last couple of days I have had to resort to clean installing everything again this time without certain mods which appear problematic,and have saved my current GWX career,and I am now in the process of applying the 1.4 patch.Using the files available at Ubisoft I chose the top file (Retail DVD versions).When the d/l popup appears the file ends in .us ,clearly indicating US versions,would that be a problem for me? assuming my copy is the UK version.

Thanks.

Hi Paul,
It has been awhile, but I thought the patches were divided into downloaded version or DVD.:hmmm:
Does it have a choice of more than 2 patch possibilities in 1.4?

You are right,DVD and download versions,yet I have seen both US and European/UK versions.I was curious if it would actually matter at all.
I think the 2 file extensions are:
- .us
- .euea (something to that effect)

Thanks.

I think it does make a difference. iirc the patch won't install on the other region version. Since you live in the UK i guess you should go with the emea (europe, middle east, asia) version. Unless you ordered it from the US online.

You want the EMEA patch Paul...available from here:

The first one (left to right) is for those who purchased the DVD and the second one is for those who downloaded the game from a game site.
