King's Bounty: Crossworlds Hotfix Available

[ckdamascus]

I have the impulse version, bought King's Bounty AP through impulse nearly last year.

Got crossworlds as an add-on, (which forced me to redownload and reinstall King's Bounty AP, since they use a different directory now).

I can't apply the hot-fix though. It says I don't have King's Bounty AP installed or something of that nature. I guess I have to wait for impulse to update it on their end.

As a side note, I've noticed a bug that occurs occasionally when I am fighting with orcs (I hate them... they are so overpowered to fight against now), where it says some script error and "abort/retry/ignore". I ignore it, and all seems well.

Does this hotfix patch that?

I also got that error saying "no version of King's Bounty Crossworld is installed". Even in the installation folder it says the same.

Yep, same deal. I even copied the file into the KB AP directory.

I have the Impulse GotY version that I just bought.

Same problem here...the patch says I don't have Crossworlds installed????

I don't have this game through Impulse, but I am a Stardock customer. Anyway, I ran into a Impulse post + work-around that seems to match the symptoms here. The issue described was that when installing the game, Impulse Client simultaneously downloads components from each game component. Which is bad - because I think the install between AP and CW shares the same folder (it does on Steam).

The work-around, if this is the source of the Impulse issue here, is to cancel the DL of CW until the AP download and install completes. Then, install Crossworld. It should then overwrite (update) the shared files.

See if that helps.

Thanks for the info Aesir.

But it doesn't help in my case.
I have the GotY edition.
AP and CW is all bundled together in one download.
There is no option to install separately.

for the record, platinum edition of cw through yuplay and that patched fine.

I see that the work-around I referred to may not apply to you. However, this is the source of what I wrote, and perhaps some information in it may be helpful to you, even if you cannot follow the steps he describes exactly.

there are a number of other posts/comments in the 1C subforum at Impulse. Perhaps some info there is of some assistance, as well as assistance to 1C and kautura to see what problems folks are experiencing there.
