Unable to get the Update

Post by jman0war »

I have Panzer Corp 2 installed but cannot update it.
I get

Error:
Unable to download file
An error occured while trying to open an FTP file



When i try to install the "PanzerCorps2-MultiDLCSetup-Latest"
It says i need to have v1.1.14 of the base game.
But i cannot update it.

When i download the base game from My Page in the slitherine website, the update isn't available there.


-----
When i installed the base game i was also prompted to install DirectX, something else and Microsoft Visual C++ Restributable.
The installer was happy enough with existing versions except for the Microsoft Visual C++
It said i should remove existing versions.
My system already has several versions of Visual C++
2005
2008
2010
2012
2013
2015-2019

What version is Panzer Corp 2 needing?
I don't want to break other programs on my system.

So I'm running 1.01.09 and I tried to update via the auto update. It froze and didn't work. I downloaded the auto installer and ran it . It said to first uninstall the game. I did. Then it said it couldn't update because I did not have the game. I then downloaded v1.01.14 it it also said the game did not exist. So then I tried to find where to download the game again. I could not find anywhere to download the game again.

Why is this so hard?

where do I go to download the game again?

Because you can't update from 1.01.09 to 1.01.14. Uninstall the game, and reinstall using the installer file 1.01.10 and then you can install 1.01.14.

Thanks for your reply. Support also replied and gave me detailed instructions. Something about resetting the registers. So I was able to re-install the game. I upgraded to v14. I also upgraded to v15.
However, playing the game new 1939 campaign the game gives me a Unreal Engine 4 Crash every time just as I click to run Poland Northern scenario. I tried several other scenarios but they all crash the same way. I have never had this crash before.
Is something wrong with v15???

I'm getting that crash too, with literally every type of game play. I bought the Field Marshal Edition and all of my updates are unplayable now, where I can't even select them and Campaign, Scenario, Load Game all crash the same way. I was told to uninstall and reinstall the game which I did and I am still getting the same error.
