[Jonesy1760]

I decided to uninstall my old copy pc2...now I need the new installer but can't find a link to it...Could someone post it here to my question...

[scorehouse]

[Jonesy1760]

OK...AFTER I download it do I unzip it and then hit run?

[scorehouse]

need some help on this one. I've had trouble unlocking it before but the last time it went smooth but its been since the day the last DLC was released so I don't remember exactly and don't want to give you bad instructions. sorry good luck

[scorehouse]

i mean the last download was the 1.20, I haven't bothered with 1.21, yet

[Jonesy1760]

I am having the same problem...but my excuse is I am 64 and forgetful...

[scorehouse]

mine is i'm just not computer savvy. frustrating when I read about being able to patch in heroes etc. and not having a clue on how to do it. i've never liked the ZIP format. like when you download, its finishes, then gives you the RUN prompt, hit YES!. and we're off to the races. quick and idiot proof for us PC games for Dummies generation

[scorehouse]

meant to say I like the format where you download....

[Jonesy1760]

I agree with scorehouse...Slitherine needs to make downloading and installing sequence a lot more user friendly...but I have said that many times before..

Hey Jonesy. see how EZ it is? LMAO good luck Kimosahbee

THANKS FOR THE INSTALL PROCEDURE.!!!...YOUR EFFORTS TO HELP ME ARE NOT IN VAIN...I am getting a weird reply when I try to download and update PC2, IT READS: ERROR unable to download file.
An error occurred while trying to open an FTP file.
this happens when I click on the self updater from within the game.

[dalfrede]

I have never gotten the 'self installer' for PzC2 to work.
I have always downloaded the Slitherline Installer/Updaters and run them standalone.

Deleted . no longer relevant

[Jonesy1760]

ok.dalfrede...I will try that...this all started when the .21 update came out...Also could be the Windows updates screwed things up...

The procedure is extensive, and I'm repeating in some parts.
You can see another version here reduced, not for Panzer Corps 2 specifically, but for other games using a similar process:

Usually this issue is caused by the interference of a Internet security program (a firewall, an anti-virus, an anti-malware, etc.) with the game update feature. Please check if any of your Internet security programs is interfering with the download from our ftp servers.

In this case usually it's easier if you download and install the update manually then troubleshoot the issue with your Internet security programs.
