AMOC will not install over SOTS BOB from Stardock

from Stardock Forums

A Mirder of Crows, the latest upgrade product for Sword of the Stars will NOT install over the Stardock supplied version of Sword of the Stars - Born of Blood.

Please fix this bug. I have seen reports that this might be caused by an incorrect registry entry.

After a little investigation the problem is AMOC is looking for a registry entry for Born For Blood.  Just went through my registry and no BOB entry with a key.  One more small item I own the orginal retail of Sword of the Stars which Impulse was nice enough to grab but does not reconize my retail key for updates.

The registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sword of the Stars" for the Stardock version of  SOTS-BOB has an incorrect value for "InstallVer".

Incorrect value is "1.2.2"

Change that value to "1.5.3" and AMOC will install.

Stardock should produce a patched version of Born of Blood that fixes this key value.
