It's weird because I remember that it worked with the earlier patches. Could be a human error, but I have double checked that the patch is installed right (doors close and open when pressing F7 and so on). Any ideas about this?

Also noticed that when the engine room gets damaged and the effects start, there is no way to stop them, even when the damage is repaired. It always happens there.

Don't know why the duds aren't working for you

I just had two duds yesterday

One was with the torpedo at almost 90 degrees to the side of the ship, the other was at about a 45 degree angle to side of the ship

v1.0.60.0 released. See post #1

The patcher app was revised to be more powerful and easier to use. Now its very easy to see which patches/changes are enabled/disabled without having to open every one of them.

The patch files now define Updates. Updates are hard changes to a file that the user does not get the luxury of enabling/disabling.

The patcher app now reads the patch file, reads the file itself, determines what new sections needs to be added and adds them. It remembers which patches were enabled and then erases all the sections that didn't exist in the original file. It then rebuilds those sections and enables the patches that were previously enabled. This will prevent you all from having to use clean umodified files for some of my upcoming patches.

Tomorrow I'll add the ability modify the variables defined in the patch files

Some of the patches were revised (code wise) because I started shadowing some of the values used in the game to my data section to make it easier to get to them. I need these values for some upcoming patches.

You'll need to disable all patches in every file before using the new patcher.

Maybe some of you aren't aware of it but I made this patcher app generic in nature (hence the name GenericPatcher). This means it can be used on any file. I make good use of my tool for other purposes other than SH5

Thank you, TDW!

Unfortunately it's not working..
The window with mistake-message opens when I trying to use it..
It's a Microsoft .NET Framework mistake

Sorry, I have only local (RUS) version of Windows and I can't translate it in English for you..
It's hard for me.. my poor English

The other versions of the Patcher always worked fine on my PC..

EDIT:
Win XP SP3 installed
.NET Framework versions installed - 1.1, 1.1 LangPack - RUS, 2.0 SP2, 2.0 SP2 LangPack - RUS, 3.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2 LangPack - RUS, 3.5 SP1, 3.5 SP1 LangPack - RUS, 4 Client Profile, 4 Client Profile LangPack - RUS, 4 Extended, 4 Extended LangPack - RUS

Works here, thanks TDW! Much more easier/faster to use.

And finally got the duds working again! For some reason I needed to downgrade the patcher to the version that worked for me before, uninstalled it, and again pathced with the newest version. I think it has something to do with the fact that I needed to manually point where the .exe, .sim, act. files were. I tried installing the new patch many times, but only when I stepped back, it started to work.

Thats 3 diffrent threads you have asked the same thing . Just apply the patch and see if it works

Daytrader · 08-19-12, 06:08 AM

Its ok, someone just answered me on other page saying that when you say patch 1.3 that is just a nickname for Generic Patcher v1.0.60.0, cheers

7thSeal · 08-19-12, 06:11 AM

v1.0.60.0 works fine for me TDW and thanks for the update, really easy to use.

I do have one question. Under the Render patches, what exactly is post effects rendering that can be disabled? I did use the remove water droplets option, do I also need to remove the post effects for the removed water droplets to work?

Sartoris · 08-19-12, 06:24 AM

Unrelated to the latest patches:

I may have already mentioned this, but very often when I load a saved game the guy who reads out your changes in bearing or the bearing of the target you are following, etc, falls completely silent. I have no human voices, and usually have to exit the game, go back in, reload, and even then it may not work. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I am really curious to know what the error says. I need something from it in order to figure out why you are having problems with the newest version. When did the error occur? Did it occur as soon as the app started or after you clicked something or
