Title: unable to install Kharkov 1943 patches Post by: thierrybo on October 27, 2013, 11:09:53 AM I,
I just purchased UK versions for both Kharkov 1943 and operation star. For the moment I just installed Kharkov, cd rom version is 5.15 and works fine. OS is Win8. If I want to install either 5.16 or 5.17 I have a message "The game is not installed. Unable to update". The game is installed in "E:\windows\Programs\Achtung Panzer - Kharkov 1943" Title: Re: unable to install Kharkov 1943 patches Post by: Krabb on October 31, 2013, 06:26:37 PM Keep in mind that Kharkov 1943 is out of support. Verify the install path, or maybe Win8 blocks something.

I didn't use the default install path, & I made sure the updates looked at the correct dir. I installed 5.16 before going to 5.17. Game updates & runs OK for me in this test.

Try this.... COpy the entire directory OR reinstall OUT of programs folder. Since i fist encountered this issue I have always installed direct under C or my E drives. OUT of programs folder. Since this never an issue again. Still do not understand why this happens, but seems to be totally a windows 64 bit issue? I can not remember if I had problems with K43 and my old 32bit vista laptop. I dont think I did. K43 is a solid game. If it takes to you give APOS a try. :D Its K43 on crack better. And k43 is good. How many late nights with k43 fighting half tracks =) Oh i am 1 month late. =( |
