Patch 1.3 Released
jrcaporal:
My update was unsuccesful several times, I DID removed all of my Mods and I didn't have any .ini edited files, it just couldn't update my game properly, so this is what I did in order to get this crap working:
1. I made a Back-Up of My Documents folder (For the saved games and downloads).
2. Uninstalled the game.
(In my case the uninstaller was all f*cked up (what a surprise don't you think? ::)), so I had to manually delete the game folder from the installation directory, then I opened the RegEdit and searched for every trace of TS3, in this case I just searched for Electronic Arts, since I had no other EA game installed atm (thank heaven :P), then I erased the folders containing all those Electronic Arts values, but I had to check very well what I was erasing, don't do it if you don't know what the hell you're doing, otherwise you'll damage your programs or even your OS. And with that done, that was it, no more TS3.)
3. Then I re-installed the game, as usual.
4. After that I applied the 1st patch.
5. And finally this new patch ran correctly.
NOTE: You HAVE to run your game without any Mods after you re-installed and patched it, that way your game will create again the files to run properly, after you do that, exit the game and restore your backed-up data, you're also free now to re-add the mods that you want, but you need to watch out for the updates of the Core Mods only, or the game will crash (How blessing is EA 8)).
I hope that helps you morons :D

Yet another nearly clueless person trying, and failing, to apply this patch. I'm installing it on a fresh install (not arred or downloaded) - no mods or anything. The rtpatch.log tells me this:
"Blah blah blah
Applying DFC Update for 'Game\Bin\code_version.txt'
Error: err0031 - Invalid file found"
I have replaced the code_version.txt with the one copied off the CD many times, but still no luck. Bah.

Yep, same thing I'm having to do, jrcaporal. Can't believe the uninstaller ended up fucked in the end, too. I deleted registry key after registry key and temp files, and it was still being a bitch about uninstalling. GAH! Fucking insane!
Sammy, I hate to say this, but I'm willing to bet you'll have to reinstall, too, because no matter how many things I replaced with the originals (over and over again), the whole thing was still seriously fucked.

Hurr, good thing I decided to try and patch after I just installed it, then. I had just felt the urge to reinstall the blasted thing to. Bah, maybe I'll be more inspired tomorrow.

Have you Re-installed from blank and then applied the 1st patch right after? Also make sure to have the correct version of the patches (US/WW/EU/DD).
No matter what things you replace, some of the games are seriously borked.
