Patch issue...

Archived from groups: alt.games.civ3 (More info?)

I've downloaded and executed the 1.29f patch....however, the title screen
still says that I'm at 1.27f! What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance ~ R.....

Thanks! I guess that solves it...I'm running Civ III Gold Edition
"Multiplayer" - I think that's PTW, right?
When I look at the files on my C drive, there is another executable in the
c:\prog files\atari\civIII directory, but when I use that one it asks me to
insert the CD-ROM and try again. Confusing stuff.
Anyway, I guess I don't need the patch? Thanks!

The PTW patch updates your vanilla Civ III anyway. On my system I can
see the 1.29f if I view this file:
C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\Civilization
III\Text\version.txt

But I don't have the Gold Edition so yours could be different.
