Title: "New Game" - No "big" screen?
Post by: Tainok on January 26, 2010, 10:26:52 PM
Heya,

Looking through tutorials, they all reference this 'big' screen you're supposed to get when you click 'New'. I have 4.91 installed (full), and this is what I get:

Any advice?

(Windows XP)

That is NOT 4.91.

I'd suggest reinstalling.

PS. You can put attachments here in posts.

Oops, just realized I had installed an old version a bit back, then forgot. I installed 4.91 over it I guess, and it didn't quite take?

Uninstalled, reinstalling in a different location just to be safe. Thanks, very quick response.

Thats an old version.

Did you unzip the file AuroraUpdate491.zip into your game directory after installing? It's included in the install zip. Make sure you overwrite the Aurora.exe and Stevefire.mdb files.
