Updating to 1.13

January 30, 2009 11:48:12 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

I saved a copy of my Sins install into a new Directory before adding entrenchment, so now I can play original and Entrenchment, but Impulse thinks my install is in the Entrenchment directory. It doesn't understand or know about the original copy.

 

How do I upgrade the original game to 1.13?

 

thanks

 

And isn't this problem going to get messier with more expansion packs?

I have the same problem, I usually switch the foldernames, so Impulse has access to one version of the game at the time. Before Entrenchemt beta 2 it showed both Vanilla and Entrenchment to be available for download, but now there's only Entrenchment

Impulse is getting annoying!

It would just be so much easier to do this the old fashioned way and give us a url to download the updater. Either that or mod entrenchment to allow us to switch off the extra stuff and play vanilla sins that way.

Partly it's Impulse's fault and partly it isn't. The obvious thing to do would have been to have Entrenchment in it's own little folder with it's own files to play with instead of shoving it together with Vanilla Sins. IronClad needs to look at how Galciv was done with each addon having it's own seperate folder whilst using the vanilla games assets when it needed to.

Same issue - cannot break Entrenchment away from a vanilla 1.12 install to just get 1.13

It has been stated that final Entrenchment will not be fully locked over original Sins - does't help much now, but....

Is it neccesary to have 1.13 to use beta 2 or is it included in the beta 2 download?

It is included in the Beta2 download - the issue comes if you want to back track to just 1.13 to play MP
