Starting the game after extracting the patch till thusfar ended in CTD, although I observed the instructions given on this Forum meticulous. Verifying the integrety of the game cache via Steam; deleting the cache folder in 1C softclub etc. I did it all but evidently this was not sufficient in my case. Now thanks to your addition the patch struck home and I got the red square after starting up the game.
I thank you very much, Baron. You made my day.

Salut!

NP, glad it worked
