Patch does not work?
 

The patch does not work for me. The first time I forgot to unload mods.:damn: Game didn't work. Reinstalled twice, the second time I reinstalled codecs to make sure that is not the problem and it still does not work. No mods enabled, I havn't even installed JSGME. I can get to the game menu, but it's constantly freezing, and there are also graphical anomalies in the back ground such as flashing black lines.

Help would be very much Apprieciated.

Lookie what im having for dinner tonight!

Yeah, I will. Nothing there to look at yet though & I'm impatient (lol) I was looking at both 1.4 mod compatibility threads earlier in the day, that one & the one that got locked here. I decided to go fresh all the way so I just completely wiped everything SH4 related & started from scratch, I just hate to be disappointed if the OakGroove gauges won't work, that's my favorite mod but this go around I'm going in deep & putting in NSM & ROW mods too. Still a little left to D/L (at 97% of ROW sound effects) & I'm off to install all I can before it gets too late & test function tomorrow.

When you uninstalled SHIV, did you also remove the "SH4" directory the game places in the My Documents folder? There are config files there too that might be messing with your re-install. Try wiping it all out, reloading and patching to 1.3. If that runs, then apply 1.4 and give it a go. If it still doesn't work, maybe your download of 1.4 is corrupt-try another download.

Good luck!

I will try that. Thanks for the quick reply.

Hmm, might as well start another campaign then, seeing as how I've managed to mess up my current campaign several times.

Whee.

Ya, It's corrupted. The files only 219 MB when it should be 225 MB. I'm redownloading now. But I have a question. Do you need to first patch it to 1.3 because I heard in other threads that the download can patch even the original version.

Thanks.

No the new patch is all you need, install stock, then 1.4 and you are good to go :yep::up:

You can patch right over the stock game.

Thanks for the reply.

I sort of regret checking subsim before I played SH4. I was actually planning to start playing with limited batteries, compressed air and manual targeting. But I checked subsim and I saw "Patch 1.4 Released" I d/led and patched and of course, it didn't work.

It's supposed to be 219.7 MB, don't know where you heard 225 MB.

Also you ( and others ) may just want to "defrag" your Hard Drive before starting a new SH4, 1.4 and then all those mods. Defrag is a good insurance. :yep:


Good luck.

I can't tell you how many times I have installed\uninstalled SH3 and now 4 :doh:
But both games have been worth it, plus you learn a few things along the way :yep:
