Here's a quote from the readme file:
======================================== This is a patch for UFO: Aftermath version 1.0 English version !!! It will not install on any other version. !! ======================================== This patch fixes the following issues: ======================================= * The slowdown in strategic game when Biomass grows too much * Some problems with Director's cut feature * Localization problems * Tooltips and other interface problems. * Combat messages from player's unit in tactical game * Unlimited alien batteries You can download it from Cenega (the publisher) here (Czech), ComputerGames here (Romanian) or Boomtown here (Danish)! Update: To check what version you have, press Ctrl+Alt+I in the game. (Patch removed from our servers due to limited bandwidth quota for the month.) -------------------- Greetings from Olav

Slaughter, ma man! I need input.
I am going to import this game from the Motherland, UK, since they dropped the ball here in the US. Is this an English *language* patch, or an English *nationality* patch? I ASSume it is only language based, like most other games. Unless the UK version has people calling aliens "blokes" and such... Please get back to me oh wise one! |

I'm impressed with the speed at which the patch has been releaced. I was expecting to wait at least a week before I saw a patch. I feel sorry for the poor programmer who had to work over the weekend to fix the bugs.
 Now if this was EA we would have to wait at least 4 weeks for a patch. Thank you very much Altar. Will try it tonight.

Please get back to me oh wise one! This is a patch for the UK version of the game. It is sold in version 1.0. So if you order the game from the UK, there should be no trouble for you applying the patch, and it does not include "bloke" to my knowledge  . I use it fine in Norway at least (I think :o, haven't started the game after I applied it).

I guess what I am asking is, is the UK version the same as the US version? Is that "english" patch language based, or does it mean the "UK" patch?

No, not language based. I'm 90% certain you'll get the same game in the US as the UK.

Before I add the patch.
Will the save games still work on the new patched version of the game ? What happens to your current unlimited batteries ? Do you still have loads, or do you end up with only one ? Gordon |

Not that I understand why it matters, but I'll ask Cenega Nikua...
And the savegames works fine after you patch it gordon. Don't know about the batteries though... -------------------- Greetings from Olav

I would be cautious.
I've a few games where the UK patch must be applied to the UK game version specifically (Raven Shield and Ghostmaster are two examples for you). So if you're buying the UK game build, apply this patch. If you're buying the US version later this month there will probably be a slightly modified version for that. There is no way to be sure without asking the devs. |

It really DOESN'T matter, however, I would like to have the UK = US version, so I don't feel left out when the US release happens! I am importing it, and don't want to have to patch it separately.
Thanks for finding out! |

Yes, Nikua, the US version is exactly the same as the UK version (and the spelling is American in both, but the voices are English -- I especially that tough Manchester guy pretending he's from Texas). So you need the patch for the version you order from UK and it is the same game you would hopefully be able to buy in USA later.

Does anyone know if this fixes the problem with the helmets dissapearing when changing armor?
