It kinda sounds like you haven't run the patch executable....

sorry about this but what is the patch executable ?

[Montbrun]

Once you "unzip" the file, you should have another file with an .exe extension. Double-click on this executable, and follow the instructions. It should install the patch to your game.

once you unzip the file from the archive (on your desktop for example), double click on it. You should have a window poping up asking you to install the patch.

Also,
After you start the game, while the black load screen is displayed,
in the bottom right corner will be the version number.
If it says 1.02e then it is working.

thanks

Did it work?

One problem. It will still say 1.02d, which is just a display error that will be corrected, I am sure. Once you get that (assuming that you have installed the most recent version), you are good to go with 1.02e ... until things change ... and they're gonna ...

As far as the icon characteristics are concerned ,that will remain as 1.00 et cetera, as it is the icon version, not the patch version, that is being referenced there.
