please help me out here !!!

1) I install DB and when I update it (to 1.13 or 1.20), I cannot start it anymore cause I get an error about the language file not being updated. So I've installed the 1.13 demo and used a crack (sorry for this but I had to) in order to copy the language file which now seems to work.

2) If I update DB to 1.2 in the editor, it says 1.14. Why ???

3) My 1.2 update consists of a .ZIP file in which there is the DB.EXE, EXTRAS, HELP and README.TXT files ... is this the good one or should I have an auto installer? I've downloaded this update from the site back in 2007 when it was still available to the public. You see, I did not buy DB using this e-mail address (the one used by me to make an account on the forums). In fact, I won it at a game competition back in 2001 I think. So all I have is the full installer and just that ... and now I see I'd have to download it using my Order History which ... well ... never existed lol. So can anybody help me with any of these problems ?

Thanks

Could you help me treat my injured Dino-Fly ?

Try moving the EXE for the update in the same folder as 1.13.

1.14 is a typo from the developer - it is indeed version 1.20

Basically it's like Sinani said, copy the 1.20 (1.14) exe into the folder where your 1.13 exe lives. You might change the 1.13 extension to something like DB.exe_113 so you don't overwrite it and can always use it later if you want - when you copy 1.20 into the folder.

Enjoy your day.

I did ... but even 1.13 does this ... apart from 1.0 (which works), every update I install, gives me the same error

Yes they are way more annoying than the double post.

When Chuck Norris goes to a gas station, he doesn't pay them $4.09 a gallon, they pay him $4.09 a gallon.
