I just reinstalled all my BG series games and have updated them with the downloads from John Tiller's site.

That is the most recent changes correct?

Just want to make sure I don't wind up having to download a miriad of alternate changes.

Did you patch the game with the updates or just put the 32-bit engine upgrades on. [:)]

I will have to go and check the versions, I do believe I have the Game Pataches except for PTW.

Talon Soft no longer seems to have the patches, does John Tiller's site have those or can someone kindly attach them in a zip file.

I installed PTW and I an having issues with the Patch, it keeps saying old file not found when it does the ptw.exe

Not sure what the deal is with that.

I have to uninstall it and then reinstall but during the Install I get an error about a .dll that is Read Only and will not be installed.

Not sure what to make of this.

Angelo,

That's an old bug in the patch routine, but there's a very simple solution:
1) Run the patch and wait for the error message
2) Make a note of the name of the "missing" file
3) Copy the file from your PTW disc to your game directory
4) Run the patch.

There is also a bug with the original PTW LOS program in the Ligny part of the map, so look for the "Ligny LOS" patch.

Regards,

Paco

I just flat out copied the entire CD to my hard drive now it all works.

Hey has anybody got the PTW to work on a live game?

I keep getting Internet not available, if there was one thing lacking back in the day was the Live Play feature. It never seemed to worked all that well for one reason or another.
