Patch help

Post by icedevil »

Hi i just installed quake 3 and downloaded the 1.32 patch, but it wont let me install it because it says something about an error decompressing quake3.exe or something and a the end it says
err = -9
i did a minimal install - would that be whats wrong with it?
please help

Possible. Try a full installation then run the patch again.

If not, then it might be a corrupted download.

You only need the latest patch, 1.32.

Some good information on this page:
http://www.quake4world.com/q3wiki/index ... lease_1.32

Download here:
