To quote David Heath

"Hi Guys

Version D is nothing more then fixing a few minor issues. The help files are in the wrong directory. Also one of the graphic files was wrong so we corrected that. If you have "B" you can just move the help text files to the right directory. IF you have not downloaded the game get "D" just to save yourself any extra work.

If you are downloading the file as of today, you are likely ok, if you downloaded the file the night it was released, and do not have anything else, you might have missed a few installer tweaks.

Fear not, to the best of my knowledge, the game works fine regardless, as I used the very first version successfully (after manually applying the tweaks myself). But of course one has to know what the tweaks required are of course.

The most significant one was the redundant nested SHP folder glitch. Plus there was some trouble with text files and the help file I think.

But any ways, the currently offered download has addressed these hassles.

For those that have not been lingering on Matrix Games forums the last week or so, this thread there is of use to you, even if you have the 8.0d file.

It provides a zip file Wild Bill created to grab the last glitch I know of from the game.

You will want it.
