Run autopatcher again, this is now fixed

if you have manually changed king3.ini you can get into game, the FetchKing3 program just makes it so you don't have to manually change it.

Wow.. anyone?

I've never seen anything like that before :S

Asked Gwayne (Other GM and Dev on Server).

Reply was..

OK depends on what operating system he is on that's normally a windows protection prob as op sys like vista and some versions of 7 dont like the game in prog files move it out of program file should be ok
I always change mine and place directly onto C:\

Sorry to correct you buddy, but Windows 7 isn't an XP tweak. It's what Windows Vista should have been, they moved away from the Dos format with Windows 7. As for Windows 8.1, that's using a similar architecture to Unix. Though personally I can't stand Windows 8.1, as it's designed for touch screen and not standard PC format and ugly to use.


Actually Chimera can be a good laugh.

Windows XP support ended as of 8th April 2014, you can also still get most drivers for new hardware for windows xp so long as you use an MSI install.

As for government systems, these have been upgraded for a good couple of years. It's their server systems, that are yet to be fully updated. Though Tesco have been the worse with upgrading, as until recently they were still using Windows Server NT and Windows 98. That was the worse upgrade I've ever done.


@IdaBigA

I've got all the original sets of files for King, including the ones before Rich touched them. Will have a look for them, once all our servers are up and running again.

If you are on about UK gov systems they really havnt there are still systems running 98 and NT in the system although they did have a big rush at the beginning of this year getting everyone onto server or 7 there are still alot on xp especially older stand alones/laptops aswell as a few 98/nt systems and networks scattered about
