Update?

from GalCiv2 Forums

I just now finished purchasing the "Ultimate Bundle" and have registered it. I used Stardock to install everything and register it.

I just now ran "Impulse" for the first time, and it says that there is an update available for Dark Avatar.

Impulse shows my DA at version 1.80g.100, but shows a version 1.80g.103 as available. Is something wrong here, since I just DL'd the entire 3 games bundle, or do I indeed need to update this? I am sorry if this seems a stupid question...I am brand new to this game and style of updating things.

Thanks for helping me, Sincerely,

Fal

The bundle you dl'd was probably set on the server prior to the update. At a later point in time they might update the bundle, but many will have one or more updates immediately available depending on when they purchase and dl. This is not anything abnormal / unusual.

So...before I start playing, then I should update the DA to the latest version is what I think your saying? I'm only asking, as I'm not too sure how this update system works...I know in some other games if you update a prior expansion "after" patching the game with a later expansion it can possibly break a game, or keep it from even starting up.

Thanks for the help !!

The third part of the version numbers are related to the internal file management stuff on the servers, so they'll differ between SDC and Impulse. Feel free to ignore any such "updates" if the first and second parts of the version number are the same.

Thanks Kryo !! So unless, the first and / or second parts are different no update is needed :) Would it hurt anything to do so?

It shouldn't actually do anything at all if you do try to update (at least, if it does, it'll make no difference in the game).
