Do I Have The Latest Patch On My Game Conversion to OOTP25?

Eugene Church · 07-04-2024, 10:27 PM

Just wondering if I have the latest patch of the game.

The latest patch is 25.6.71

On my recent import from OOTP24 its reads
25.1.Build 47

Why didn't it convert to the latest patch?

Did you install the patch correctly? Sometimes you may have installed it into a different location, or something after downloading the patch you did not select the same folder to install it to as a shortcut is looking at.

Thanks Matt for always being so good to help us out.
Appreciate all of you guys so much.

I just followed the instructions to convert OOTP24 to OOTP25.

It went very smoothly. I don't even think I had to make any choices.
The game did it all.
Everything is fine in the game. It converted perfectly.
I just don't have the latest patch.

Will it be OK to go and download the lastest patch posted here?

Anyone have any idea about me just downloading the latest patch.

You would think that would work, unless something went wrong in the initial download and it didn't download the latest patch like it should have.

Sooner or later I will have to download the latest patch.

Maybe Lukas or Matt will see this and give me some advice.

If necessary, I could just convert the game again and just see if it downloads the latest patch.

You want to download and install the patch before converting your file over. Just downloading isn't enough - you want to install it to the same folder as your previous install usually.

The other thing to check is when you download the file, check that you are installing the correct file from your downloads folder. If you don't clear out your downloads folder, the earlier version is probably the ootp25setup.exe, so the latest version you download might be like ootp25setup (3).exe or something like that. It might be useful as well to delete those old setup files before running the download, again to make sure you don't re-install the old patch.

Thanks Matt.
Really appreciate your help.

There was no setup file in my download folder.

I will do what you say.

I reinstalled the game and all is fine.
I now have the current patch.

Thanks for your help, Matt.
