Which patch to install?

[Jonathan Irons 12]

Hello Mitchell's

I got an idea LOOONG time ago

"Why I should waste my time puttin discs to my drive all the time so they can get stratched IF I can simply ISO them and make game think "Oh Its CD of the game ! lets play" "

{Makes me remember days where people did

[(CASETTE PLAYER SOUND OUT ----> PC MOTHERBOARD MIC IN)]

And

[(VHS VIDEO OUT---->CONVERTERS----> PC VIDEO IN)

(VHS SOUND OUT ----> PC MOTHERBOARD MIC IN)]

}

And this time I will reinstall the game

But worst of all

Game discs are nowhere to be found and I dont know which patch to install

The SC4Deluxe CD ISO's are in my USB

Should I install SKU1 (NA/NZ) or SKU2 (Europe the place of dirtiest and bloodies people got turned to nice people thanks to Muslim Ottomans) ?

I Learned that SKU 1 is for older games [1.60] while SKU 2 is for newer games [1.62]

Is there an file in the ISO's that tells me version of the game ??

Thanks for answering

1. Install game (i.e. run the installer)
2. Navigate to the install dir / Sku_Data folder
3. Now you know which SKU you need for the EP1 Patch.
4. Install the EP1 or 1.1.638.0 patch, then I'd recommend also the Nitelighting or 1.1.640.0 patch. Note only the EP1 patch has SKU Variants to worry about.
   Do this right after installing, before any other fixes are applied. Otherwise the patches will fail if they recognise modified files.

Not exactly, SKU1 - 5 is a region thing, but beware where the disks were bought, won't necessarily correlate to the region you have. So check the folder above to get it right first time.
