watah tah f.ck!! i dont know how to install 0.49b...

damnn the old 0.48 patch was more easier to install i just dubble click it and a popup appears with a loading bar ect. ect. it was more easier, and now i get this computer geeky microsoft bill gate file watah f.ck!!

how do i install it ? and what happend to the user-friendly interfaces?

Didnt Diane already put on the news that 049b has been pulled. So there is no use to get it.

If it is in zip format anyway, just extract it and copy the files intot eh TCEtest folder while retaining the same folder structure. Unless, if you extracted it and it comes with a TCETest folder, then open that folder and just copy all the contents into the TCEtest folder in your directory.

mann mann... it seems i get the news more earlier than you...


by the way i allready fixed it, too bad that the popup window with the loader to update tc:e with a new patch isnt used anymore, that was way way better.

I already know that. Well the loader bar isnt really necessary. All you need to know is where they were extracted

than what the hell is this mate?


anyways...

that pop-up with a progress bar was necessary,

because you didnt have to move any files you just simply click once and evrything was automaticly arranged,

what not necessary?

it's a .zip file with some .pk3s and junk. if you can't extract that, you probably shouldnt be playing.

oh, and do you know how inconvineint it is for the devs to make a .exe installer? if they do that it's literally 4 times the work. after the windows one is made, they need to make a mac installer, then a linux one, and then the ..zip again for those of us who like using winzip/winrar.

It is just a simple package. It is also a hotfix so they didnt really have time to make a proper patcher.

download

extract to tcefolder

overwrite all

what could be simplier than that???

lawl

once again... most people arent computer experts,

infact more than 8 people asked me how to install 0.49b patch

I had 15 ask me on how to install .49, so I don't see a problem.

So now you have to be an expert to know how to extract a zip file?

I guess they should have included a Readme file (or did they?).

even for computer "experts", it can be a little tricky because the patch creates a sub folder. Most computer "experts" would just unzip it to the folder without blinking an eye and not even notice or realize the subfolder and encounter problems (that's what I did when I installed the alpha - I didn't even notice the subfolder until I couldn't connect to the beta server. So yea, it can happen to anyone).

Although this isn't a major or complicated issue, I agree that we need to clarify installation and will do so more thoroughly in the future.

It is kinda like a hotfix, you cant blame them for its installation quality.

if you can't patch with a .zip file, you're probably the kind who goes "how I shot gun?" in-game. also, with some of the stuff you have to do to get the game running perfect, you'd never figure it out and get kicked for ping/whatever issues.
