Hey.

I downloaded the game, and when I launched it, it started installing patches. It wouldn't work though, so I went on the website to download the patches manually, did as asked, downloaded and installed all the patches that are higher than my current version, then when I launched the game, it started installing the patches again.. :/ automatically.

Why's that? How to fix it?

That's a good question, maybe you should reinstall the game and the download and apply the patches. You probably did this but I think you need to install the patches in order from lowest to highest. I hope it works out for you and have fun playing Hero. If you are using Vista, right clicking on the game shortcut and choosing "Run as Administrator" might help.

Actually, I fixed my issue in an other way. Just in case someone reads this thread for help;

When you manually update your patches, the launcher doesn't know that you "updated" them, so thinks you're still at <whatever old version you were.>

What you can do is basically make SURE you installed ALL the patches that are higher than your current version, then go to C:\Mgame\Common (Or whichever directory you installed Hero on) then open the Hero.ini file that's there (with notepad if it doesn't open automatically) then change the value;

Version=xxx to whichever newest version you just updated your launcher to.

E.g; Mine is now set to Version=199 while it was Version=186.
