Patch Notes

[crazycelt]

I purchased Red Tide via steam, and an update to the game was installed yesterday. I can't load any of my save games, so I was wondering if anyone could post the patch notes. Thanks.

As with Men of War, once you update, your version is no longer compatible with older saves. So in order to load those saves you would have to revert back to your previous version.

and an update to the game

guys, a little help for someone who's never downloaded a game before red tide. where the %*$# is this patch/update? is this information released somewhere and it's only me who's clueless? thanks...

<EDIT>
well, i took my own advice and checked gamersgate and got patch 1.00.1. but i still ask, was this announced? also, i haven't installed it yet as i have save games i want to finish but for anyone who's installed it, is there a readme? if so, can you briefly tell us what's in the patch?

Its on the Russian version of the Red Tide site. I haven't bothered downloading it, but I don't think there is much in it. It may have been removed, the last time I checked and saw it was a month ago.

The patch is so small, I doubt it would be announced.

I doubt it would be announced

well, in my mind it must do something significant otherwise why bother...

can the admin (Sneaksie?) find out please.

Significant?
It could just be correcting a typo or two. Thats not much.

From what i read the changes are minor. However, it's worth noting that some of the "list of changes" i found gave the impression that Russian and English copies received separate patches with different changes.
Can anyone confirm this?


Anyway, for now, here's a translation from a Russian site:

List of changes Patch 1.0.0.1

* Now the game writes the correct error message when you run at resolutions of unsupported game
* Now the "fog of war" on and off during the mission
* Added icon and name for a box, a portable two soldiers
* Fixed the bug with shooting from a flamethrower
* Increased capacity of naval guns fired

Corrections in the single mission:

* "The last handful of bullets"
* "Feodosiya: Debut
* "According to Odessa would not shoot!"

Here are the changes for English, according to this site

List of patch fixes
1. The display of the word Victory is fixed in a save loaded after victory.
2. Fixed maps and missions in Lieutenant Fedorov's Response.

This site also seems to claim there is a patch 1.0.0.2 out there (as of 16 December..)

Not sure what to make of all this, to be honest i haven't played the game in a while, but if the patches were important i'd say we would be informed.
