Yes it was broken, but it was replaced with working patch on official update website ages ago. He probably kept the old broken patch.

Trust me, I've tried every combination of cumulative and incremental patches suggested (and everybody that doesn't have the problem has their own theory about what everybody who does needs to do to get it to work) but the problem remains; all of the 2.34 patches do a hash check first, and all report changed files and abort. If you know of a 2.34 patch that doesn't do an md5 check, send a link my way please.

The official site is full of pissed off people that actually bought the game with the exact same problem, and despite the ridiculous steps listed to fix it, the issue remains.

Thanks guys, but like I said, I've tried every single patch they have and it's the same thing (files have been changed, patch aborting, meh).
Since Ascaron has no clue what's causing this or how to fix it, I don't understand why they just don't remove the stupid hash check for 2.34. None of the other patches have it, why does this one need it?

Well you must be doing something very wrong, because the patch was fixed a long time ago. Did you actually reinstall the game and used the patch from the link I gave?

Yes, I've uninstalled/reinstalled several times, rebooted after each patch install, used Ascaron's removal tool, used reg cleaners, etc. I've done it all. You do realize lots of people (who actually bought the game) have the same problem right?

Well, as far as I know .. they *had* the same problem. Ascaron fixed the patch ages ago :-\
I bought the game just before Christmas. I downloaded the full 1.34 patch direct from Ascaron. Installed. Works fine.

What do you mean after each patch install? It's just ONE patch. Seriously you are doing something wrong...

No, what I'm saying is, on their official forum, there are countless posts from countless people suggesting everything from the all in one patch (yes I tried it, it doesn't work) to every other combination of incremental patches. Nothing works. I've tried installing in XP x86, Vista x64 and even Windows 7 7000 x64. There's some unkown combination of hardware/software that I, and all the other people who can't get this thing to work have that the patch just isn't compatible with. I don't get how you can think I'm installing a patch wrong...lol

Sweet Jesus on a pogo-stick! >_<

Ascaron's Chris Grunwald had told us that at least a GTX 280 would be required to run all features with best texture quality. Furthermore even fast quad-core CPUs were said to be too weak for the Physx effects and even the Ageia PPU would be overburdend since data would have to be transferred from the RAM to the PPU and from there to the CPU - a problem of the available bandwidth.
Matching Grunwald's forecast our Core i7 running at 3.5 GHz never reached more than 10 fps. If we cast a particle intensive spell, the framerate even drops to 3 fps and recovers slowly only.

Saaaaa~weet! Nice one, thanks for the update on the update, Mr Beckman ^_^
Boy I'm glad I bought this game now. No need to fuck about with cracks, or even having to WAIT for one >_>

But you have ATI, don't you? Gonna wait for someone with Nvidia to comment on performance and improvements with Physx enabled.

Ah yeah you're right Glottis I should have mentioned that I run it via a AGEIA card and those are somewhat outdated, still it's nowhere near as bad as it is if you were to try to run the PhysX enhancements via your CPU as that resulted in single digit frames.
Developers did recommend a GTX 280 for it though so I guess a dedicated 9600 or somesuch would give best results and leave the primary card to handle the graphics.

I have 60fps stable now, so hopefully with PhysX on it won't drop below 30 in heavy action (assuming we ever get a crack for this patch).

A game in creation before 2008, yet suddenly patches induced saying you must have one of the highest end cards to carry on with it? Strange shit.. Im betting its more an oversighted foul up of a hashed job via the engine used, trying to squeeze a few more pennies of its title out of the hardware fanboi's...
Seriously though doesnt anyone view this patch and its "physix" stuff a bit insane for this game?
Id understand if it was something newly in the planning stage.. but its like flight simulator X and its shoddy coding released for the future of hardware etc.. I can only imagine S2 is also supposedly aimed at glorious play for those that are willing to wait till they have upgraded a few mnths or more down the line..
And no Glottis before you pipe in  I am most happy with my 4870, and will have also a new gtx back from evga germany soon..

If you're using HR textures and high settings, the game's already stressing enough. Add to that the physics and a highend card is perfectly plausible.
"Pause Functionality" --> FINALLY!
