Cannot Install Patch 1.4b

Intrepid · 03-12-12, 11:58 AM

Hi everyone. After a long hiatus from playing this game, I got a newer system and want to install the GWX pack. As per their instructions, I tried patching the game from the Ubi site. When I tried to run the patch, I saw this:

I installed a clean version of the DVD which came as a 2-in-1 with SH2. I opted not to install Game Shadow, as I can conduct my own updates. I downloaded the patch for the retail DVD from Ubi too. I know the window states I am installing v1.3, but as indicated in another post, that is only a typo from the devs. I can't figure out what the problem is.

One thing I suspect is that it is already the correct version. The game I bought shows v1.4 . Is this actually 1.4b? I only bought it last year.

I am running Windows 7. My computer is more than capable of running the game.

Was I supposed to download all the previous patches individually or something?

Please advise, and thanks in advance.

If your game shows 1.4 then you're up to date

Yep, current retail versions of the game are already fully patched to v1.5 whether sold on disk or download. So you should be good to go, no patching required.
