the only helpful thing of this "unofficial multiplayer patch" is file annonettool.exe, which let you activate mp-buttons in all 1503-installations. international versions had at that time version number 1.04, which has a bad mp included. what some guys did: they used parts of the original german 1.0 installation to activate mp in international versions, that's all. This "unofficial multiplayer patch" is a fake, it doesn't exist. if you're interested, i'll send it to your email. I modified this texte.dat, but it contains english language. 1503ad will run without installation.Īt least, lets make a test: i'll host a game and you'll connect to my server. If your installation of 1.05 will run fine, you can copy your 1503ad1.05-folder to other computers. you can play 1503 without cd (therfore, you have to copy folders "videos" and "music" from your cd into your 1503-installation). You'll get several benefits by version 1.0, best of all: NO copy protection.

don't miss to delete scenes.cach and inselcache.txt before first start of 1503. If you get german text in your singleplayer maps, recover complete folder "scenes". Rename or delete file CompLogic.dll for compatibility issues. To solve this, create copies of 1478.wav and rename copies to 2611.wav up to 2616.wav.Įxchange texte.dat in folder 1503ad with modified one, dobber sent to you. Some wav-files, located in folder "speech", will now give wrong informations:Ģ611 - 2614: infos, related to ore mine, but in 1.05 related to selling ship. info, that someone sells a ship (additional messages) 2615.wav - 2616.wav earth quake (earth quake is only available in addon) 2605.wav - 2607.wav.boarding of your ship by an opponent (boarding feature is only available in addon) 2600.wav - 2604.wav.

You have to download patch 1.05: t-online, german internet provider click button labeled "jetzt downloaden".Ĭhange language key in registry to your language-key (US ?)ġ.05-version has some additional wav-files(german language), located in folder "speech". now, you should see GER in your registry window. Right click on LANGUAGE, then "change" (first entry in menu).Ī little window will open, change your language to GER and leave this little window by clicking "ok". On the right side, you should see LANGUAGE with value US (or something like this). On the left side of regedit window go to: , type in: regedit, then regedit will open your registry. therefore you have to change your language key in registry to "GER" before installing patch 1.05. Installation of patch 1.05 will check your language key. Otherwise, copy following files/folders to a seperate folder: from there you should be able to recover every file, if necessary. If you have enough disc space, i would suggest to copy your complete 1503-installation to a new folder. There should be only one problem: if we miss something, you'll get some german text or sound in your installation. when you start 1503 and you go to the screen, where you can select a scenario, you'll see something like "2m4c" at the end of the name. My maps have information about ai in its name. so you have to look for informations like "mit cg" or "mit cgs", which means "with ai". German speaking players call ai of 1503 "computergegner" (short: cg), which means "computer opponent". Regarding maps with ai: there are several maps for different mp-versions, containing ai, available in annopool.

since release of classic 1.05, i only made maps for classic 1.05 (marked with "classic 1.05" and "cbs-version", which is the same). you can only play maps, which were created for your mp-version. Regarding maps of annopool: the maps are for different mp-versions. i don't know if there is an us-version 1.05, too.Īfter release of classic 1.05, we decided to play this mp. I've heard about an uk-version 1.05, released in early 2007. classic 1.05 was released in september of 2006 as a patch (only german language). In our oppinion, the best mp-part is included in classic 1.05. some mp-versions are bad, others rather good. you can see the version on the first 1503-screen (picture with version-no., marked by a white arrow).Įvery 1503-version has a mp-part, different to other versions. To answer your questions, i need more information, especially about the 1503-version, you own. I'm glad to hear, that some people at the other side of the atlantic ocean play 1503-mp.
