On their support website it says you need patch 1.4b When i click the link to go to the patch site they only have up to 1.3. also It wouldnt let me install that patch. how do I succesfully install these patches and mods?

Thank you

Welcome aboard orangehat44

Your game may already be patched to 1.4. There is a long standing typo which refers to 1.3 when it should actually say 1.4.

If you have d/l the exe and bin files, simply put them all into the same folder and click on the exe and point it to where steam has stored your game.

I don't use steam for GWX personally but in my installation (XP Pro) the default location is C\ProgramFiles\Ubisoft\GWX3.0
