V1.4

sharkbit · 04-08-08, 07:34 AM

Quick question(and maybe a stupid one):
I was loading the game last night to do a little torpedo practice in the tutorial and noticed in the lower right corner of the screen there was a v1.4.

So that means the game is version 1.4. Do I need to install the 1.4b patch or is it a new enough version of the game with all of the patches?

Thanks.

This means it is patched to version 1.4.

No further action required, sharkbit

There are no stupid questions, just stupid answers!

Sink'em all!

Thanks.

I was going to download the patch after I messed around with the tutorial and saw this when I was loading up to play and I figured I didn't need to do any of the patches, but I wanted to make sure.

I managed to waste 2-3 hours trying to install the 1.4b patch and being told that certain files were missing before I read in another thread about newer discs being ready patched! Things like this do tend to make you feel like a bit of a doofus.

I am afraid you install is sadly deficient without SH3CMDR and GWX 2.0

I'm working toward that. I want to figure out how to play a little bit first before I start adding mods.
From what I've read here GWX 2.0 is awesome and is a must have along with SH3CMDR. I'm trying to get my feet pretty wet first then adding those mods.

Plus, I have a couple of hardware issues I need to take care of first:
The biggest being my video card sucks. The game runs ok but the graphics are not near what they should be. I plan on getting a proper video card this week.

Another issue may be that my computer is getting a little long in the tooth. I meet the requirements to play the game and it seems to be running fine, although I do get some strange crashes at times, but I think they may be a result of the video card. I'm hoping that will clear up when I get the new card.
My biggest fear with the GWX mod (and others for that matter) is my computer will start to sulk if I put them on, but I'm going to try them anyway because they just seem too cool.
