If u got a nickle every time somoene had downloaded AP u would be out of our league now :)

i know, OddStar told me in a pm yesterday that he's already shifted around 650,000 downloads totaling 2.2TB. the english xp full release accounts for around 513,000 of those downloads :woot:

Well, it's only the 16th and already the Full version has been downloaded 827,492 times. Go Cachefly :)

how the hell do you do it that many times? my mirror has only had it requested from around 2000 different IP adresses

edit: are you talking about just the august 2006 full there? (i am)

Minor point:

Among the critical updates, 899589 and 917537 are not applicable for XP home edition (as stated in the corresponding MS05-046 and MS06-034 respectively). They refer to components that are not part of Home edition.

It might be helpful if Autopatcher could distinguish between XP Pro and XP Home and not mark those two as not installed if the user is running XP home (or better still not list them).

Yes, this is just the August XP Full file...It's distributed through 6 different servers.

and you're sure its 800,000 complete downloads? eg someone downloading it in 4 parts counts as 1 not 4 etc

checking now i've got 2264 unique IPs for august full so i still can't see how you manage 400 times the amount :p it'd be interesting to see how many downloads the other mirrors are doing

What about the Brazilian Portuguese Release?

The author thanks Gondolas for it, but I can't see any sign of that.

Hope it comes! :)

Please, i need the Portuguese Brazil version! Gandolas ??? :cry:

I waiting for Brazilian Portuguese Release too. If this come out mail me. Thanks!

I really hope the dutch version will be available soon. Hurry up! :D

fine job on this Autopatcher thingie btw! Saves me a lot of time and trouble :yes:

offtopic: Is there an Autopatcher for SP1 as well? can't find it anywhere.. Or isnt it necessary once youve updated to SP2 and used autopatcher after that.. In other words: does Autopatcher include patches BEFORE SP2 as well?

Hi, first of all i would just like to say great software and devotion from the AutoPatcher team.

Unfortunatly i have encountered a problem, i downloaded the full august version and extracted it and ran it, but when it was installing it froze at 95% with the hotfixe KB884020, i was forced to restart my pc and try again, same thing, then i uninstalled the hotfixe from Add/Remove and tried installing it alone using autopatcher same thing, i'm installing the rest of the updats without problem so far, what could be the problem wtih that hotfixe? and how can i fix it ? i'm running a windows xp sp2.

P.S: How can i subscribe to get updates news of autopatcher, i subscribed but i dont think i subscribed to the correcte thing because i didn't get an email telling me the august version was out...

wanted to edit my previous post to add the following but i couldn't find the edit button, weird, any way:

Some updates gots installed too fast and actualy end up not installed like KB891122 , KB910998 ...

I read the FAQ it said that when that happens it's probably because of the username but if that was the problem i'm guessing it would't have installed anythign and also my username is only alphabetical characters so don't think it's the problem.

please list all of the hotfixes that aren't installing properly for you

I want to know as to how do I install this autopather thing. I have never used this before. Can some body guide me. I t will be really helpful to me as well as other who would come across this wonderful concept for the first time.

    • If you actually used it instead of responding like a petulant child you might be surprised. I switched from Google some time ago and have been very satisfied.
    • I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
