BI v1.6 Patch Problem

[vladimir85]

Hi,i have exactly the same problem about the start date of the campaign or battle and i followed the instructions but still i cant play
The problem seems to be i just cant instal the bi 1.6 patch.I have the gold version on separate cds(3 rtw+1 bi) and after instalation i have rtw vers 1.3 and bi vers 1.4.Normaly i should be able to instal directly the 1.6 bi patch but then when i try to instal it it says this patch will only upgrade 1.3 to 1.5 ((((( .Now i've looked on every topic on every forum about rtw and bi and still haven't found anyfing.I've downloaded the official patch directly from totalwar.com so i simply cant figure out wats happening ((((. Can you plz figure this thing out for me ))))

PS:i can instal the 1.6 patch if i go and instal all the patches 1.1+1.2+1.3+1.5+1.6 but then still it says the same error when i try to play the fourth age and bi is still vers 1.4 ((((

I have never had any problems with patches, though I know some do. I believe the totalwar.com official site has some good tech support on this issue in their forums (under "community" I believe); you may wish to check that out.

Unfortunately, your error seems not to be related to our mod so I cannot help.

The best method is probably to uninstall completely, and also to clean the registry off RTW/BI.

Then:
- Install RTW original vanilla 1.0 (cd or dvd)
- Install BI original (cd or dvd)
- Install BI Patch 1.6
(After this, just better only install mods with a mod folder, and accurate after the instructions)

That's all i can advice, besides that i have done an overview in my Chiv forum regarding RTW/BI installation here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showp...05&postcount=1

My understanding is that when you install RTW BI over a RTW 1.5 install it downgrades the RTW to a previous version (1.3) so it needs to be repatched to 1.5.

I've always found this post to explain the process quite well.
