Help with patch please |

Hello, I am one of those unfortunate souls who has discovered SE5 so late! I have purhased a download version with 1.2 already installed. Unfortunatly have been unable to install 1.25 despite several reinstalls... I will appriciate any suggestions please.
Also a quick question. Do the starting tech points are for human created empires only or for AI empires as well.
Thanks for your answers.

Re: Help with patch please
no, that´s not steam but maybe something like steam....anybody here knows that digitalriver.com stuff?!

Re: Help with patch please
Well, if all else fails you can get it for $20.00 at GameStop and it comes with SEIV.

I got my copy for $15.00 with shipping but there are no more from that source.

Re: Help with patch please
Selcuk, could you re-post the second question, please?
we could look in the manual but it's not been updated.. I'm curious myself how that really works out, particularly with the mods, i consider it a valid-worth-repeating question.
My copy btw is steam 9its version 1.25)and seems to work, well, much better than it did. Fighters no longer crash my system.
Do you REALLY think you will subvert System Vampyre before it subverts YOU?
Re: Help with patch please
no every one gets them just try an all tech game and you will find that the AI empires are maxed out as well.

Re: Help with patch please
I thought alltech games were player only. I never see the computer get any of the extra techs..or maybe it is not using them right???
Re: Help with patch please
they are all maxed its just that the AI dosent use some of them but it does have them.
Re: Help with patch please
The problem is known but the solution is "wait and see ...". The game developper will release a latter patch for compatibility with this version.
The digitalriver.com stuff is the downloadable retail version of SEV. I've downloaded the 1.20 version too and I can't patch to 1.25 too.
So, wait is the only solution 

Re: Help with patch please
wow!
well done, and good going!
sorry for your inconvience, but i'm sure everyone appreciates that you kept the community abreast of that!
just sorry you had to be the Guinea pig.
Do you REALLY think you will subvert System Vampyre before it subverts YOU?




Re: Help with patch please
if you got it over steam you´ll have to wait till they distribute a patch, the normal patch doesn´t work on the steam version.
2nd question no idea.
