Matrix Patch?

Achtung Panzer:Operation Star is an Eastern Front wargame with solid graphics and sprawling battlefields that really emphasize the scope of WWII tank combat. The gameplay is a remarkably realistic turn-based and real-time operational/tactical hybrid wargame that continues the series begun by the acclaimed Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943.

Matrix Patch?

Post by 76mm »

I've got the Matrix version of the game, has Matrix released their version of the patch yet, I don't see anything here about anything but the gamersgate patch, which I understand won't work with the Matrix game??

76, Erik said they are to release their version of the patch which will be easier to do than the patching process everyone else has gone through to make it work but if you just cannot wait I can direct you through the process of getting your Matrix version up to date.

Yeah, Icebox was instrumental on getting me up and running. He is just part of a great community here and I applaud him and all the other fine people that frequent this forum.

We received a mail about an update yesterday, but we were not expecting it and have not had time to download the files and build and test installers yet. We'll get on to them as soon as we can!

That's surprising given that the update has been in the works for a while and was widely discussed here.

Thanks for all of the responses; I'm not in a huge rush so I guess I will wait until the Matrix patch is out, although it sounds like it could be a while...

I installed the Gamersgate patch over the Matrix version of the game. It works just fine - no issues.

I was rather put off by the convoluted installation instructions for the patch but I guess I will try to do it this weekend when I have more time.

The basic patch isn't too complex. It's really just two separate install steps.

1. Run the 580 update as you would any executable file and point the install patch at your Matrix APOS folder. Install 1 is done!

2. The Updater UI for Install 2 will open automatically once the 580 installer has run.

3. Click the INSTALL button (bottom left)

4. Browse the where you downloaded the Patch and drill down until you see the addpack file.

5. Select it and the patch will be installed immediately.

6. Repeat this process for the District Updates, if desired.

Let the process complete and then click SAVE AND PLAY. Top right of your main window it should say game version 580 May12 patch, or similar words.

I think the main problem is when you apply patch
the program does not have the correct path to game.
You must make sure this is correct.
The rest like Red said.[:)]
While few men, legislators or otherwise,have felt down the years
that they could command ships of the line or marshal air armies
without specialized training, almost any fool has felt in his heart
he could command a regiment.

Yes, a lot of people didn't spot that the default path doesn't match the location of the Matrix install.

I works fine for me. What problems are you having?

If you are doing a re-install, I suggest that you start over and:

1. Use the uninstall exe that comes in the APOS folder to remove the program.
2. Then Manually delete the remaining files and folders after the uninstall.
3. Create a new folder for the game (I am now on 'APOS 4') and install the game fresh to that folder.

Now try running the 580 update and the May 12 patch.

Let us know if that works...
