OK, I bought the game & Bloody Roads South. Now, do you want to (a) install BRS first (which is underway, anyway - why is it so huge and time consuming on the d/l?), then the patches?

Or, (b) patch up & let BRS kick in as desired?

(c) does BRS need patches?

And do I want 1.05 on the base, 1.06 Official, or 1.06 RC XX?

Help!

Welcome back GS. I think it's fairly straight forward. I would install Bloody Road South then the "Official 1.06". You should be playing tonight! Good luck.

Base patched to 1.03 on a vanilla install procedure. Not Steam, I don't think.

Do I need to grab 1.04 or 1.05 before patching to 1.06 (Official, I presume)?

Patches for BRS?

Directory structure? I installed BRS to a separate directory, just 'cuz - I can always C&P. What do I want for my directory structure?

I read in the patch thread that the 1.06 patch is comprehensive but I have no personal experience. I patched in increments. However I would patch away.

Install BRS , then update with 1.06, which is comprehensive. Windows 7 puts the game in C:\Games. BRS is just scenarios, so I think needs to be installed in the same directory as the game.

All official patches are comprehensive, so just install the main, original 'setup'[SUP]1)[/SUP] and then the 1.06 patch. The BRS DLC is only scenarios and what is necessary for them, so I'd install them after the 1.06 patch, just in case, but it probably doesn't matter.



[SUP]1)[/SUP] I would strongly suggest installing outside the standard 'C:\Program Files' folder structure because of issues with update permissions. I personally use 'C:\sbin' for everything that might be a tad sensitive. Just add the folder first and then have at it

Messrs. khbynum, Capt.,

Yup, exactly what I did. Per Capt. Mosby above, slapped 1.06 on the base game (a separate directory is my wont, also), looked at the BRS directories and slapped that on. All seems well. Thank you, everyone.
