I Have just 2 QUESTIONS!

1st: Can anyone tell me when Activision wil relase a Offical Full SFC3 Patch??? (No More Betas that wont work)

2nd:And why i cant connect to any Dynaverse 3 Server with the German Beta Patch???

When i try to connect to a Server it says ever that i have different misison scripts and that some other files are different too.

I Hope that there will relase a FULL Patch soon.
I Think thats time to relase 1 Full Patch (6 Months After Relase it should be 1 FULL Patch isnt it so?)

6 months already? Gee. We must only be a couple of months away from the release of the stand-alone expansion game SFC3-Ferengi Trader. SFC3-FT will have extra ships and weapons and an enhanced shiplist with playable trader companies. Once SFC3-FT is released then SFC3 will be patched to be superior to the new product. Look out for the enhanced D3 too.

As for the German beta, I have not had anything to do with other patches, but did you uninstall SFC3, manually delete all of the game directories and reinstall. Check that the game is working straight from the CD on the Acti servers, then apply the beta patch only and recheck the D3 with the unmodded servers that are using the patch.

Unless you have been using mods, the error sounds like a failed patch application.
