Question about patch compatability.

[sandworm]

Hey everyone, I really enjoyed using the build que's patch developed by MVI : http://forum.dune2k.com/topic/26702-release-build-queues-patch/..

 

How ever I recently downloaded the latest update of gruntmods edition of dune2000. I know I can run the build que patch by creating a seperate .exe file, but does it use all the same functions as the latest dune2000 release? 
 

Or must the build que be implemented in the latest release?

Everything that is not in dune2000.exe should be working fine. I always add new stuff in a way that it will stay compatible with any dune 2000 installation, so you can place any version of the patch into any game folder. The only thing you need is the 1.06 patch + game files

Ok I think everything is working order. I was just worried that the different .exe files would not load the same files as the latest patch release would. I was concerned if the files such as rules.ini would be read from custom patches such as the build que and it looks as if they do.. Thanks for the info funky

Currently it should not load .ini files, but mvi was working on a update that loads .ini files. The update will have pretty much everything except Skimrish/Online/Single-Player mission launch support (skipping the menus and go directly into the game)

Yes you are right, it is not loading the .ini files. Hope to see mvi incorporate it into a new patch, I really enjoy using the build que
