I loaded the patch to my original CD version 2.5.0.0 and the program now bombs each time I select Single player -> campaign.  Any suggestions?  Or can I select old patches rather than this new one?  I'm rumming Win98 on a P3-900MHz
...
Thanks for the great support... better than any other game out there...

You're not trying to run an old saved campaign are you? If so, you cannot run old campaigns under a new patch. Other than that I would try another clean install and re DL the patch, you might have gotten a corrupted DL.

You could also try to run the game in Win95/98 or Win2000 mode.  I did a clean install with 2500-25410 patch.  After loading, it asked for my CD key and it locked my keyboard out.  I set it on Win2000 and it works beautifully.

I'm having that same issue. Click "Single Player", NP. From the SP menu, click "Campaign," and get a free ticket to the desktop. It acts like a program termination; ie. there is no error logging message or de-bug prompt.

I do have the game modded with the latest OP+ and ED missions for online play, and SP campaigns are just a filler for me, so I didn't want to raise a stink about it unless others are having the same issue.

I believe that the presence of any old SP saved campaigns in the folder will cause the CTD (regardless of whether you try to load them or start a new campaign).  I had the same problem under XP until I deleted the contents of the folder.

Yay for the patch!

*random ponder*

But if it went up that far, shouldn't it be 2.5.5.0, to keep the last number in the 1-9 range?

*nitpicks*

Thanks for patching!

I believe that major and minor versions numbers must be from 0-9(inclusive), but build numbers are not limited to such a convention.

Is my game not patching correctly??

I run the patch, it goes through everything just fine (i.e. no errors), but when I load the game the title screen still says 2.5.3.8 and I get no servers listed on the Dynaverse.

Which patch version are you running? are you running the 2538->25410? or the 2501-> 25410? This might not be your problem, but without any other info, it's my first guess.

If all else fails, reinstall and do a 2500->25410.

To me, it sounds like there's 2 copies of the game installed. The patch is fixing one, and your playing the other.
Any chance of that?
