This is a bug-fix patch that will only work on v5.10 or later. To apply the patch just unzip the Aurora514.zip.exe into the installation directory, overwriting Aurora.exe. Don't forget to follow the above instructions when you run the game for the first time.

I just checked to make sure. Yes, 5.1 has both, aurora.exe and the database, so you don´t need 5.0

Every time I attempt to make a new game, it hits me with endless errors, forcing me to close the process with task manager.
I have tried deleting the aurora game file and reinstalling fresh, which strangely still carried over a save game I had. Help would be MUCH appreciated, thanks.
Edit: I have just re-installed everything in order. I am getting the forewarned errors from Steve about errors 3061, 3265, and then a ton of 91 errors followed by the endless spam of errors whenever I try to make a new game. I have done everything precisely as the instructions did and I live in the US where it's separated by a decimal etc etc. Once again, help would be appreciated.
CURRENT UPDATE: I have made a fresh install into a new aurora designated folder. I have successfully patched to 5.13 with no error on startup, with the first game on the menu being titled "The Space Race". I have attempted to install the 5.14 patch, but it only asks me to replace the aurora exe and NOT the mdb or whatever file that it asked me to replace on the 510 patch. Upon replacing the exe, I see it is still on v5.13 but thankfully with no errors still. Is this right? Or am I missing something?

The small patches, i.e. from 5.1.3 to 5.1.4 only replaces the exe.
Start the game, select "Game". There should be a new option "v. 5.1.4 data update" select this. Now you wil run a proper 5.1.4
If this option does not exist, try overwriting the aurora exe with the one from the 5.1.4 patch again.

Error 3265 generated by DAO.fields

I had copied in 5.10 and 5.14.
It was working before this set up updates.

IMPORTANT! This patch includes a minor database change. I didn't want to release a new database just for this one change but you will have to trigger the database update. When you enter the Game window for the first time, there will be an error popup. Ignore this and select any game. Now go to the Game menu on the main menu bar and select v5.14 Data Update. You should almost immediately see a popup stating "Update Complete". Your database is now updated and ready to continue. This won't affect any saved game.
This is a bug-fix patch that will only work on v5.10 or later. To apply the patch just unzip the Aurora514.zip.exe into the installation directory, overwriting Aurora.exe. Don't forget to follow the above instructions when you run the game for the first time.

As a gamer you could try the Vegas "Collectable Card Game" developed by one of my friends when she went there (with her boyfriend) as part of a Trek America holiday recently. There are a plentiful number of (mostly Hispanic) gentlemen who distribute the business cards for "ladies who offer personal services". These have pictures on. See how many different ones you can get.
She managed dozens. "No, got her. And her. Oooh, not got that one."
Stephen
PS. Probably best just to take the cards, or you might collect some other things.

3) Don't ask Taxi drivers to suggest a location. They are on commission and don't care if someone rips you off.
4) Despite the fact it is illegal in Vegas you will be tripping over members of the world's oldest profession pretty much everywhere in the hotel bars :)
6) Should you choose to give one (or perhaps more) professionals a tour of your suite, lock all valuables/credit cards in the safe and be discreet about typing in the number.
7) Make sure that before any business transactions begin, you understand exactly what the fee will cover and the length of time involved.
8 ) Don't believe anything you can't verify, no matter how nice they may seem :)

Tried a 50cent blackjack machine with 20 dollars, went down to 14 and back to 20 then cashed out. Might try a 10 dollar table later. It 'appears' to be straight forward enough...
Bellagio to tonight for buffet and then go find some Shenanigans!

We gave a very poor showing of ourselves unfortunately
Took one whole day to drive to Grand Canyon and back again so that fecked us up. On the last night we went to the Bellagio for the dinner buffet but by the time we queued and finally ate (a lot) it was late and that much food killed us. Tried to revive the night but it was lackluster.
We got home late Thursday night and then went to Austin on Friday - had a fricking blast, my friends got absolutely smashed while I got body shot in Coyote Ugly and tried to keep them away from bouncers and the police. So that made up for some of the Vegas non-starts.
