The patch isn't working for me!

[orangesaber87]

Hey guys.. Me and Deity Dude were trying to play a game together. But there was a error. I was trying to install the patch so I could play mutilplayer games with everyone. But its not working. I can download it but when I try to install it nothing happens. Can anyone plz Help me?
I have windows XP and Multiplayer Gold Edition.

Which version of MP Gold edition?

Where did you get your patch from?

Let's set up a game, maybe it's a firewall issue.
What's your ICQ number?

[orangesaber87]

5.2.0 I guess is the version.. if thats what you mean.
Got the patch from CivFanatics.
I dont have a ICQ number yet. But I have Yahoo IM under this id

You don't have Civilization II Multiplayer Gold Edition then?

I added you to Yahoo, but you went offline.

[Deity Dude]

he has civ 2 gold - for some reason his comp wont let him install the patch - he is using the patch I used and have sent to plenty other players.

When I click on it, it sets up some files and then prompts for what Language I want to use

When he clicks on it, it does the file set up but then fails.

I thought it might be an XP issue but Im not sure

Hopefully someone can help him figure it out, Ive run out of ideas.

[Deity Dude]

the version he was referring to is the version of the patch when u view its properties. same as my version

Daniel, I've found a solution to your problem. Meet me at Yahoo tonight in about 8 hours, or post what other time you prefer.

[orangesaber87]

Great! 8hours from 10am? 6 O-Clock? Well, I have a meeting with some people at 7:30 but its do-able..

[orangesaber87]

Well your time is differant from mine.. But thats what mine time would be.

[Ljube]

It can be even sooner. Set the time.

[orangesaber87]

I'm open starting now for a few hours if nothing comes up.

[orangesaber87]

Ok, Something came up. Gonna have to leave at 1:30pm My schedule is really crazy right now. I apologize.

[orangesaber87]

I will meet you when you first suggested. Thanks for your help.

[orangesaber87]

Thanks for all your help Ljube!! You saved the day.
