gpl 1.0 to 1.2

by oz » Wed, 18 Apr 2001 17:18:12

I'm having major problems getting my uk version of gpl(version 1.0.0.0)
upgraded ... when I run the official patch it says my version is not
valid.....
the read me says its only intended to upgrade from version 1.0.0.3
upwards...
I tryed another patch that just extracts the new files to a directory and
then gpl doesnt work ....what am i doing wrong..... is there another patch
out to fix this or am I going to have to live without force feedback..
cheers in advance
oz.

There are two patches for GPL and as I recall you have to patch 1.0.0.0 to
1.0.0.3 and then patch that. Both patches should be on www.papy.com or
wherever you got the other one from.

Papys UK patch is really confusing the US one has an installer but the UK
one just comes in a winzip self extractor.

To install make sure you have the UK patch (the US only installs for the US
version) make a folder and call it "gpl patch" or something run the patch
exe and unzip the files to that folder, then go to View/ Folder Options/
View/ and under "Hidden files" click "Show All Files" then just copy and
paste all of the files to your GPL folder. Once you've done that rename
"core.ini.sample" to "core.ini" the force feedback settings are in there.
