Collectors Edition add-ons issue

from GalCiv2 Forums
installed Collector's Edition add-ons from this webpage, all three of them

version change from 1.2 to 1.0X.2

when trying to load game saved right before add-ons installation, this game crashes every time

when choose new game, a lot is corrupted (initials picks as a blind exploration, no text, immediately is unchecked when I check it)

probably much more

You need to reinstall, then apply the collector's edition unlock, then patch to 1.2 (if you don't install from SDC that is).

DO NOT use the first "Bonus Pack" download on that page if you've already patched, as the content in there is included in all later patches, but if you install that one specifically it will revert you back to a hybrid of 1.0X and 1.2 (thus the crashes and errors).

what about to ADD that information about "Bonus Pack" to download section to prevent others corrupt their installation

there is written 1.0 or higher

please fix the text there

If you want to do a fresh install with Stardock Central, do you have to apply the collector's edition unlock first, or do you just update the game to the latest patch and automatically get collector's edition extra's.

SDC does not apply the CE unlock, so just run it at any time after you've gotten the game installed.
