AutoPatcher December Update Wishlist

[cpugeniusmv]

i'd release it now, and make a .01 release whenever you get a chance...

i don't mind the wait, but i can imagine some people are jumping up and down waiting for it.

Upload the current version, distribute the links with a warning about it

Then fix the bug, and upload it tomorrow sometime. I don't suppose there are many n00b's dying for AutoPatcher and hanging onto this thread until its released.

OK people, we found a slight problem. Nothing major mind you. The Autorun was incorrectly edited (FLISHFUN!!!) lol dont worry about it man, you have a big frigin plate so it was a simple over sight. Its a very simple fix, but the question is, do you guys want to do some simple editing yourself? Or should we fix it and reupload to the servers? I know all of you want this real bad but keep in mind, not everyone visits this site, that uses it, and 2 it should be complete. Its up to you guys. What do you think????

Yeah, my bad. If I re-upload, it'll take at least another 6 hours from now... if not, then it'll be up soon. And you'll only notice the bug if you burn this to a CD and try to use the AutoRun. The fix is very very simple, but who knows, thought we'd ask you. :)

^^^ Agreed, release now with instructions to fix, go .01 when the commotion has died down.

[Daimaah]

Oh, if the bug is that small, go go go :laugh:

[Max Veteran]

Or........you could do a Microsoft and delay it a few weeks :)

[AgEnTsMiTh]

No worries Bro, so much going on and trying to please everyone it just slipped through. I could upload to a few servers the corrected version.

[FlishFun Veteran]

Cool beans... I'll figure something out... such a stupid oversight, I should have caught that. :no:

[DFISHER21]

I vote for release now also. I also agree with fix instuctions, or even a quick patch. I was also wondering will there be instructions for the update as there was for the Nov. update? Such as, do we add on top of the Nov. update or just over 4.0?

[Kelsenellenelvian]

MUST have the November files in there.

[DFISHER21]

MUST have the November files in there.

Thanks. I've wondering about that for five weeks.

[FlishFun Veteran]

Yeah... since the formats and files change from one update to the other, you must have the previous version installed before you can update. So:

4.0 - 4.1 (Y)

4.1 - 4.2 (Y)

4.0 - 4.2 (N)

See? :D

[.Joa]

Can't you make a batch file that renames everyting automaticly??

[DFISHER21]

GOTCHA!!!

[FlishFun Veteran]

Yeah, but it's still best to just release a version that's all right. No worries, I have AgEnTsMiTh helpin' me upload so we should be able to still get this out today. :)

[.Joa]

in how many hours will it be out? I've been waiting for like 24hours now :(

[DigitalFreedom]

soon, a t he most 1-2 more hours :D i should know as i am uploading it to my server as well :D

[.Joa]

I have a FTP server but I can only upload at 20kb/s

but once it's on my server it's really fast to download :)

[Max Veteran]

I would let you use my hosting, can upload at 256kb, but the prog would eat my bandwidth :)

[FlishFun Veteran]

Well AgEnTsMiTh and I are uploading the fixed updates, so they should be replaced in about 30 min. :D So we should still be on schedule! :D

[khaledsallam]

He will soon, I promise... we'll release all the links at the same time. ;)

[Apex]

Sweet :)

been looking fwd to this, means that when i come to do a clean install i will be fully patched up :)

btw hows the win2k project doing ? it could prove ratherusefull for the server builds i do :)

[VoodooX]

I've found that I've to use a new W2k server and then add the service pack when using SmartStart with initial install. My slipstreamed sp4 disk sometimes isn't accepted by smartstart.....

[Apex]

If i had the time to sit down and go threw a few installs of 2k server/advance/data centre i would but the time taken for each one is well a shed load.

ps keep up the good work this file has saved my bacon over the last four days with the amount of builds i been doing :)...also going to get used on my new build in a few days :D
