Patches overwriting

Post by AK1962 »

Hi,
I´m very rare visitor in this forum because I haven´t any problems with Panzer Corps yet. But now I have one maybe strange techical question.
Have anybody tried to change (overwrite) installed patches to earlier patches version (like 1.26 to 1.21) ? My problem is that I discovered mod Amulet 2.0 and read that I need to play this mod Panzercorps patched to 1.21. Earlier before this I patched game to 1.26.
Is this changing possible or I must re-install all game with add-ons ? I tried to play with Amulet 2.0 mod (using ModEnabler) Grand campaigns 39-45. Amulet Mod works with vanilla campaign and with Sealion but didn´t work with Grand Campaigns 39-45 ( in units selection wasn´t Amulet units).
Can anybody give me any advice about this please ? Sorry about my bad English because I´m Estonian. :)

With best wishes

Hi AK,

Generally, it's undesirable to install earlier patches onto later patches, and I can't guarantee what'll happen!

I'm going to move this thread into the main forum as you may find some more help from the regulars who've tried this sort of thing before :)

Thanks

You might experience issues if you downngrade the game.
It's always better to ask this questions to the mod maker.

Hi,
thank you both for help.
I asked this problem ( Amulet missing units in GrandCampaigns) from mod maker ( I suppose it was mr Messmann) in scenario design subforum but didn´t got the any answers. I was in mr.Messmann forum but this forum was in german. I dont understand german but I think I figured out that 1.21 may be ultimate patch for playing Amulet Mod Grand Campaigns and patches after 1.21 will not work with Amulet mod. Very messy thing for me because Amulet works now with 1.26 when I played Sealion campaign.
I will wait couple days and when I dont get solutions or experiences of patches overwriting I will re-install all and patch it to 1.21. Like said by my opinion Uncle Joe (Stalin) "criterion of truth is practice". Then I can tell you too what happened from first account.

With best wishes

Hi,
I did it - I overwrote patch 1.26 to patch 1.21. And nothing happened. But I can´t play after this Amulet mod grand campaigns like before.
Now I re-installed all game with add-ons and now I can play Grand Campiagns 39-45 and Sealion too. I have patched game to 1.24 when I installed Sealion campaign.
Maybe this information can be useful for someone who has similar problems with Amulet mod.
