Superpatch blewup my game

[GeorgeMeyer]

Hello,

I installed MSCOMSIM3, without incident, OFF, without incident, and they seem to work quite well. But when I installed the "superpatch" and its little addon, whatever its called, the game exploded. I uninstalled Off, and the patches but now not even MSCOMSIM3 works. Any suggestions. Please exclude detailed programming instructions since I am not a programmer. Thanks.

is this what happened?

Do you have anything more that we can go on? When you say 'explode', what actually happened? Any error messages or graphic freezes.

 

Your computer specifications might help too, but more importantly can you give more detail of what happened please.

Sure,

But I wanted to make sure some response would be forthcoming before writing a detaie explanation. Since I have taken them all off the drive I'll have to reinstall and let you know what the exact result is(the first was a crash message). I don't know what a "CD Crack" is. I bought a used copy of MSOMSIM3 through an Amazon vender. The discs and packaging certainly looked original. Thanks for the help.

George,

 

Older copies of CFS3 are usually version 3.0. Newer copies of CFS3 are v3.1.

 

If yours is version 3.0, you'll need to install CFS3 and then patch it to v3.1. The patch is located here: http://www.microsoft.com/games/combatfs3/downloads.aspx#update3.1

 

Why does it matter? If you have 3.0, you'll have to install CFS3 and patch it before installing BHaH. It's usually wise to start it and fly a short mission to make sure it works. If you have 3.1, you don't have to install CFS3, the BHaH installation routine will ask for the appropriate 3.1 disks during the installation.

 

Hope this helps
