Entrenchement and basic version of SOASE

multiplay not feasible with basic and add on version

from Sins Forums

Hi

Was trying to launch a multiplayer game on my lan with a standar version of SOASE and one updgraded with the new entrenchement add on, just download via impulse.

Both version have been upgraded with latest patches.

I was expecting like in the game "Company of heroes" the possibility to have computers running basic and add version still be able to play together.

"version not compatible"was the delivered message ! ...hey ! I hope i will not have to desinstall the add on every time my son and i want to play !!

waiting for your comments and btw ...merry christmas !

The beta disclaimer specifically stated that right now the Entrenchment beta can't be played with the vanilla Sins. The final release will be compatible :)

For now, you can uninstall Sins, install 1.12 through Impulse, make a copy of the folder and then update to Entrenchment. You can run 1.12 out of the copied folder, and Entrenchment from the original install. Again though, this is only during the beta phase, in the final you won't have to do this.

I was wondering if it is possible to copy the beta of entrenchment to my other personal computer that doesnt have an internet connection so that i can play it with my brother?

Does the other computer already have Sins installed? If it does, then you should be able to just copy the Entrenchment folder over and over-write everything. If it doesn't, you'll also have to hack the registry entries.
