You really insist on making things difficult, don't you?

Realy difficult to install that update the same way as the whole game?

BTAxis:
Releasing patches is a bad idea. It created the need for extra downloads for people who want to install the latest version from scratch and it's confusing, especially when you release more than one patch. Also, it's a bad idea to distribute files through ED2K. It requires third party software, and it's one of the worst systems for the job.

I'm on SVN so I'm not dependent on others posting installers, but if I was I'd definitely pass up yours.

Muton:
I'm not doing this for you
I'm doing this for people who are unable to download <600MB every time to stay up2date
For people without a flat broadband connection

The patch will update the lastest Destructavator build too UFOai_2_3Dev_r21848_m21848.zip

Well Muton, perhaps u have not tried to catch up on SVN issues yet?

I agree with BTAxis that patching is a bad idea.... why?
Because there is something like a patch system already in place - its called SVN.

Its not like your usual patching download like in clients for online MMORPGs or the such.
You will require safe (EDs btw is not, its coupled with tons of spywares and is a big chance u catch one) and free SVN updating..... TortiseSVN is one good one if you have not known about it. Read about it here if u have not learn how to use yet.

What it requires however is a learning curve, and u will need basics such as CODEBLOCKS and Compiling for Windows Guide and perhaps NSIStoo.

Pls dun raise this un-helpful suggestions again. The coders and developers have tons of much more impt things to do - such as coding the 2.3 version and getting the next version out.

Perhaps a more constructive thing is to check THIS out to see how we can help em.....

PS: I also run a 56k modem from home.... so i get my friends to get the update, burn a disk and give me first time. If i need to urgently get a patch, i will then go to work, and update from there, thumb it to flash drive and bring home. Thats how much effort i try to put in to help the team to beta test....... and no, i am not a coder, developer, nor part of the team. I am just well.... one of their frenzied beta testers. lol.

PS2: On the differential part, if u were to be doing regular SVN updates, u will realize that the updates are probably much much smaller. Only noticeably bigger when someone has updated a new map or the such. :) Check it out pls.
