I ran Jan Update by installing the original AutoPatcherXP and installing the Jan update over it using the installer. I don't need to install all the updates up to Jan, do I?

Actually, I am 99.9% sure you need to apply ALL the updates if you are just upgrading the orignal. Otherwise just go download the full version.

Someone else asked about this at this thread [LINK]

Hi Guys

Having used the full 12/03 AutoPatcher & installed it to a folder in Program Files - and then run it, can you please advise how to install the 1/04 update. I tried this but it appears to install but I cannot see any result. :( Also if I try to run th 12/03 full again it says it cannot run.

Can someone please run thru' the procedure for both from the beginning.

Thanks in advance. :unsure:

Here ya go:

Step 1: Extract the December Full Version somewhere out onto your Hard Drive.

Step 2: Extract the Jan Update out somewhere onto your Hard Drive.

Step 3: Run the Update.exe file in the Extracted Jan Update Folder.

Step 4: When prompted, browse to the AutoPatcher.exe file located in your December Release Folder.

Step 5: Let it update.

Step 6: Run AutoPatcher_Menu.exe from your December Release Folder, it will now Be the Jan Release.

The End! :)

I also have a problem. When I installed the Dec. Update, it took me like an hour and a half. When I installed the Jan. FULL update which is supposed to have everything from the previous ones in it, it took like ten minutes and nothing much changed. I installed the Jan. Update on a clean system just reinstalled. Can I install the Dec full even if I already installed the Jan full?

Hmmm... when you installed the Jan Update, you had everything checked?? That's quite odd... and it was a freshly re-installed system?

Oops! I applied the Full AuthoPatcher Jan. Update to a clean install. I had almost all the options selected. Installation finished very smoothly. When I tried to configure the Messenger, I didn't find it there. So, I checked Windows Updates and ended up having to install 25 critical and recommended updates. Here're the critical updates:

330994

Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (KB824145)

Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components (KB832483)

Security Update for Microsoft Windows XP (KB828035)

Security Update for Microsoft Windows XP (KB825119)

Update Rollup 1 for Microsoft Windows XP (KB826939)

Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB824105)

Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB823182)

Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB824141)

Security Update for Windows XP (KB824146)Download size: 1.5 MB

814078: Security Update (Microsoft Jscript version 5.6, Windows 2000, Windows XP)

Update for Windows Media Player Script Commands (KB828026)

Interesting... all of that should have installed. :s The only way I could think it wouldn't... hmmm... question, when it first ran, did it ask you if you wanted to use logs that it found? If so, that could have caused this...

yep, thats about the same problem with mine. I didn't even have windows media player 9 installed afterwards. Yes, this is a clean install, i got ready for the jan. update because i thought that it would include the nov. and dec. ones too. I got the pack that was about 220 mb and all except maybe 3 were selected.

That's extremely odd. :/ That contains everything... hmmm... we'll have to look into this more. I wonder if anyone besides you two have had this issue. :huh:

I, as I mentioned above, had the same problem. When I tried to use them, the Messenger and Windows Media Player were gone and I couldn't repair them either. I reapplied the AutoPatcher but it was in vain, I got the same problem: most of the selected updates weren't installed and the files for Messenger and WMP were removed from my computer. I had to use the file versions of both programs to install them.

Now, I reinstalled Windows and applied the December Version of AutoPatcher and everything thing works like a dream. I could even use StyleXP v2.0 without getting the Windows build number error.

Best and thanks for your effort and time to resolve these issues.

Well, so far the only ones reporting this are you and LiLViEtDuDe917... and I feel bad because it seem to work fine for me here, and no one else is reporting the issue. :/ Anywho... we'll work on it, and if anyone else has an issue with this, please post!

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
