I use AP 4.10 on Win XP SP1a and after AP 4.10, I run 5.x and it's perfect. I even have Windows Firewall without SP2 :)

So i't possible to have AP 5.x after AP 4.10 on Win XP SP1a

Windows Firewall, although not called "Windows Firewall" was around before SP2, just named differently, and not as advertised.

yes, it is possible...but not recommended.

some updates included in AP 5.x are for XP SP1 as well as SP2.

However the majority are just for SP2.

SP1 only fixes are not included.

if you do use AP 5.x on SP1 you will still have many updates to retrieve from windows update.

And btw, there is absolutely no excuse for not using SP2. it is not an optional upgrade, but a MAJOR critical update.

Initially when it was released, many businesses had to hold off from using it because their custom made software wasnt compatible, but they've had plenty of time to fix that.

As for everyone else, you may have some teething troubles, it is a major update after all, but with proper preperation it should go smoothly. if you run into problems there are many forums out there that can help you, including this one.

Well, it's time to switch to bilingual talk here  :D

Hi Dollarman,

Dutchie??

As I'm sure many of you know, or at least should know, Patch Tuesday is tomorrow!? How soon can we expect AP XP June 2005?:huh::

586057868[/snapback]

How soon the next release will be available for downloading depends on the tests and if the patches will be available in all languages. English won't be a problem.

I can't say if it will be added to create a new FULL and LITE version or that it will be an UPDATE version.

For those who are interested in more information about theBIG patch> coming up on Tuesday 14th.

Then you can read more here : Microsoft Security Bulletin Advance Notification

Looking foward to JUNE release, don't forget to put in the tweaks you published on forum on 23rd of May... :)

Will you put new Microsoft installer, has it past testing?

Can you at least put Mozilla Firefox to the full package as optional its only 4.7MB? :cry: :cry: :no: :cry: :cry: :angry: :spam: :yes: :drool: :hug: :bounce:

Angelico_Payne, unfortunatelly, Mozilla's Firefox installer cannot be used for silent installation, so the small, 4MB file is of no use for us. We need to repackage it and that means we're left with a much bigger, 12-13MB file.

rallen52, yes you can select what to install.

As it is at the moment, there is no silent install for Mozilla Firefox, and the program will have to be re-packaged with an installer, which will increase the installer filesize, and waste a lot of time.

Hoever, when 1.1 comes out, this will be possible instantly, so just wait ;)

hi,could you tell me how to use this,i m on a dial up and its a nightmare to keep my xp up to date,i assume that its for that,do you pick what you need and install?thanks for your time,i really appreciate any help,  [email protected]

Your best bet would be to download the Lite package (or better yet, get somebody on broadband to download it for you and burn it onto CD) and install it. yes you do pick and choose what you want installed, it's just a matter of ticking checkboxes.

:)

//edit, Raptor beat me to it :ninja:

Sorry everyone.  I am now forced to remove the AutoPatcher Full download from my site due to the extreme load.

This is an indication that people need to download via BitTorrent rather than overusing the mirrors. Learn it, use it, and benefit everyone! If you had provided that file over the BitTorrent network, you wouldn't have used as much bandwidth, you'd have encouraged more to use BitTorrent, and your server could go up and down without affecting the reliability of the download. Now I suppose we have dead links to clean up.

I need a connection at home that can upload 250GB in 4 days. :cool:

Can't you just download the zipped version of firefox - without the install. AFAIK, firefox works standalone - no install needed. Just run a self extracting archive or something.

the zip file doesn't add the add/remove programs entry... I'm guessing most people want this entry

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • 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.
