Subj: PATCH: Renegade v1.1 (60MB Only) Date: June 15, 1995 From: Teksmurf2 File: BJS60V11.EXE (434414 bytes) DL time (19200 baud): < 5 minutes Download count: 24 AUTHOR: StratSIm EQUIPMENT: PC W/full 60 MB Renegade Install NEEDS: 60 MB Renegade Install Keywords: SSI, Renegage, Update This is the *RELEASE* update to v1.1 for Renegade: Battle For Jacob's Star The only difference between this and the test update is a few extra lines in this readme file explaining the changes to the game. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING NOTE BEFORE PROCEDING!! ------------------------------------------ NOTE: This update will only will only work for the 60 meg install. This is due to the fact that we cannot modify files that reside on the CD-ROM, they must be copied to the Hard Drive first, which is what the 60 MB install does. If you have one of the smaller installations on your hard drive, you can INSTALL the 60 MB version OVER your current game, then apply the patch. Savegames should be unaffected. Please do NOT ask if this update can be used with any of the smaller installs. The answer is "NO". ------------------------------------------ To Install this update 1) Download this file (BJS60V11.EXE) 2) Type the name of the file (BJS60V11.EXE) to extract the files (PATCH.EXE, PATCH.RTP, and README11.TXT) 3) Copy the files (PATCH.EXE, PATCH.RTP, and README11.TXT) to your Renegade directory (default is c:\renegade) 4) Install the 60MB version of the game over your current 15, 30, or 50 MB install. This is a necessary step. Failure to do this, will cause this patch to fail. 5) Type PATCH to update the game. 6) Type SVIEW README11.TXT to see the changes in v1.1 If you have any problems with this update, please contact SSI Technical Support for assistance. Or send e-mail to StratSim Corrections in v1.1 1) Added Clean.exe which looks for and deletes files in your game directory which should not be there (I.E. Old replay files). These files will not cause a problem with the game, they simply take up unnecessary disk space. 2) The game will now check to make sure you have enough free disk space to run the game. In v1.0, the game would simply crash if there was not enough free disk space at startup. 3) Corrected problem with mouse not reaching below 2/3 of the screen. (Since we could never duplicate this problem in-house, we can only speculate as to the effectiveness of this correction. Please contact Tech Support at 1-408-737-6850 or on any of the online services -CompuServe (76711,250), GEnie (SSI.SUPPORT), America Online (StratSim) on which we support our products if you are still experiencing this problem. 4) Fixed Alien animation in command console 5) Corrected crash which resulted sometimes when a players ship was heavily damaged during combat (about to explode). 6) A stray pointer was corrected. This was not linked to any one crash, but was corrected in this version (1.1). dcg
