pelicanstuff Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 how did you go about patching the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamMFC Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hey sorry I'm really confused I've tried installing the patch through bitorrent and it appears to have been downloaded as it is on my desktop. However when i now try to start a game it appears to still say 9.0. Is there something I need to do to make it update the game? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed that when i went to start game it never gave me an aption to select a database. Also do i have to strt it through steam ? Right. I'm not sure what's happening there. I really don't think you have to start it through Steam, but it's probably worth giving it a try to see if that solves your problem. I'm sorry if I can't get back to you tonight on this but you can always use the Bugs forum to report the problem or send me a PM that I can take a look at when I get a chance.

You need to apply the patch before it will take effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just run the .exe on your desktop and it should pick up your FM09 installation straight away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done it through stream and it worked. Waaaaaaayyyyyy !! I noticed when i tried to re install the patch (not through stream) it put it into the stream folder maybe it should of went straight int fm 09 folder.

Chris Ritchie Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Have you ended up with an install through Steam and another separate install? That might explain it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamMFC Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 When i open the file it pops up "Torrent Task Existed" and then a task properties screen comes up. I really dont know what it wants me to do i've tried select, select all, ok and nothing seems to work :S. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Could you perhaps post a couple of screenshots on imageshack so I can try to work out what the problem is? Sorry if I don't get back to you tonight but I'm not at work at the moment and I really would like to go to bed You can always PM me with them too.

pelicanstuff Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 you are trying to open the torrent file rather than the .exe. Do you have a folder where the files you are torrenting automatically save to? or is there another file on your desktop? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamMFC Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Ahh , well im not the best with computers and my dad's on nightshift so im struggling away here, managed to get the game installed though which seems like a mission for alot of people on here! Is there a folder they would usually save to? Should i try one of the other methods would they work easier? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 If you don't know what you're doing with torrents I'd suggest using the Rapidshare link. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravisBickle Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Have you ended up with an install through Steam and another separate install? That might explain it. Yip thats what happend Chris i got fed up waiting to activate the account through steam yesterday i tried the other install option so ended up with two installs in pc when i "patched it" it went into the steam folder which was already patched hence the other install only showing 9.0 version. Thanx for your help Chris. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
