BETA PATCH v1.06.17582 - May 05, 2012

[AKA_Goshawk]

Followed all the instructions originally posted by Blackdog_kt and added the patch as instructed. When starting, the gold reticle comes up, then disappears and the game goes no further. The reticle disappears after several seconds then nothing, just the Windows desktop.

Please help!!

Ataros suggested to set Windowed mode in the conf.ini, start the game and then set Full Screen inside the game.

Cheers!

Edit conf.ini to start in windowed mode. In game change back to fullscreen, restart game.

Which windows OS are you using? Might be an idea to post your system specs in case there is a problem with them using this alpha patch.

Solution:
DON'T USE WINZIP. Try with 7Zip or WinRAR. Winzip doesn't correctly unzip the patch, although you get no error during the operation.

I've posted this on this thread and sent a message to blackSix so they can put this advise right in the first post, but I guess they didn't.

WinZip will work if you right click on the .rar. and hit properties, select Unblock and all the files will be extracted properly. Not sure why Winzip blocks all the files from extracting.
