Localization

I downloaded patch 2.03 (2.02 (GOG-11) -> 2.03 (GOG-12)) (2.6.0.12) - base Windows version, I don't have White March, so I couldn't have made a mistake there.
I tried to run it against installed game v2.02 (GOG-11 (2.5.0.11)) - again, base version.

It fails with the following message:

"This patch does not support your version of the game
please download a new installer"

*EKHEMM*

Which version DOES it support?

Also: why do we need 3 different numbering schemes for patches?

Good grief, it's about time! This should have been the case from the beginning... by design. It's shocking that a patch had to fix this, and that it took so long. I shudder to think what the designers' mindset was...

The same problem with Linux version.

It's Obsidian. While some of the things they do are brilliant, they do seem to have a talent for overlooking/screwing up some of the simplest things.

I’m working right now on my unofficial Linux patches, they should be online in a couple hours.

I don't understand the numbering scheme at all. I downloaded a file called "gog_pillars_of_eternity_2.9.0.13.sh" and when I run the game it says version: v2.03.0788. The link I clicked to download this file is called "2.03 (GOG-13)".

I tried using the "Patch 2.03" download, but it gave the error about I don't have the right version for the patch.

So is there any way, GOG, you can somehow wrangle this mess so we can figure out what is what?

Thanks,

Ed

There's a community wishlist entry for unifying version numbering here
Please upvote if you care.

I am having the same issue where the basic (non- white march) patch 2.03 will not install saying I have the wrong version for this patch and to download a new installer - (the white march patch 2.03 installed fine)

what exactly does that mean (download a new installer) are they telling me I have to re-install the entire game?

My game version (from the main menu) is 2.02.0749 PX1 - I have completed every other update to date is this patch just borked??? :(

I install White March 2.03
no pumpkinhead for me... :(

You need to install both patches, base game 2.03 and White March 2.03.

Personally I find the Pumpkinhead mode even more awesome with the God-Like bug, as you can see in my party.

For the love of god GOG and Obsidian NEED to correlate their damn patch naming conventions!
So much bloody confusion, verifying the GOG Galaxy download after the latest patch and it's STILL trying to download 5.2 fricking GB of data at the slowest rate possible!

Infuriating!

Game patch say I have wrong installation. Look like I have to reinstall all.

I re-applied the last patch to fix that problem on one of my computers. But GOG has taken that down so unless you saved it you're screwed and will have to download the full install.

There's been a lot of stupid problems like this with patches since 2.0 was released. I'm going to download the full install again myself just to ditch my archive of these broken patches.

I'm still on version 2.00, so where's the patches for 2.01 and 2.02? I cannot use the current patch to update...
