Is there a 1.4 patch prior to 1.4b?

Paul Roberts · 09-14-08, 02:46 PM

Hi all,

My Direct2Drive version of SH3 is labeled 1.4, not 1.4b, on the title screen. Is this a problem? I've downloaded the 1.4b patch at Ubisoft but it tells me that it does not recognize my version (my "mission.dll" file). Is this normal? Am I already actually at 1.4b?

Thanks for any advice.

Probably, launch your game and look on the bottom right corner, it should say 1.4b or on the top. Then you will notice, if you do not see it try reinstalling everything

1.4b is the 1.4 patch updated BEFORE release
So you are good to go

So I'm OK even though my front end says 1.4 instead of 1.4b? I'm double-checking because I'm about to install GWX on top of it all.

Yes, you're fine. 1.4 was released to testers, and the approved version was released as 1.4b. The original 1.4 was never released to the public, so if it says 1.4 it's actually 1.4b.

Except of course if you download the patch separately it has a typo and says 1.3.

How odd. 1.4 is what I get by default (no patching) with a completely fresh installation from Direct2Drive. Oh, well...
