HOWDY FOLKs,

just a quick question? iam am currently re-installing all of my hps titles after a 2 year absence form duty. the question i have is when i download the newest version it should update. however (example) cornith after installing the update the version still reads 1.0 how will i know if it truly did update as this is the way i thought you would know by looking under the about tab which shows the version number. any thoughts on what i need to do to correctly install the new version.

Just make sure that the updates are the latest JTS versions, For Corinth, it is 2.01, from JTS; if using the HPS update (older) it is v2.00.

In addition, make sure you POINT the update to the correct game folder; the update MIGHT not show the correct game folder or drive.

If you installed from CD the likely default path was C:\Program Files\HPS Simulations\Campaign...

You need to change this, as that is no a protected operating system folder. I suggest:

C:\John Tiller Software\Campaign... or something else that works for you. If you use my suggestion though the updates off the JTS site will work without you having to find the correct folder.

Also, write JTS support to get serial numbers for your HPS purchases - http://www.johntillersoftware.com/Support.php
