Woot!

What do you mean by fully uninstall?

wow that's funny i just went on to check. woooh!

I've been having a problem with the beta installation. Despite uninstalling Sins and Entrenchment from Impulse, and then removing the AppData and program file directories for the game, it does not work on install.

After installing the game on Impulse, I verified the Entrechment installation, and it said that the game was not installed properly. After downloading a 114k file, it said it was ready to play. But here's the interesting part - it doesn't work, and prompts me to uninstall the beta and Sins again. But the game does work before that "update" is installed. Despite that, the game verifies correctly after the update.

Any solution would be appreciated.

Like take it ALL OFF!!!!

I've been putting off purchasing Entrenchment, but now is the best time for me to buy it. If I buy it tonight, will I have access to the BETA?

Yes.

Thanks, mate.

Make sure you don't have any custom maps in your galaxy folder after uninstalling (or any files in the sins directory actually).

Alright, I've think I've figured out exactly what the problem is.

Before I installed Entrenchment, I made sure that both vanilla Sins and Entrenchment were completely removed from my computer. I uninstalled them from Impulse, and then removed the Stardock Games directory in Program Files(x86) from my computer. I also removed the AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\ directory.

The game (Entrenchment Beta 3) does install and run correctly. If I verify the installation however, Impulse will tell me that it is not installed correctly, and prompt me to update the game. When I do so, it downloads a 114kb file, causing Entrenchment to no longer work with an error message stating:

"Entrenchment has detected files from a previous beta installation. Please uninstall Sins and Entrechment via Impulse and reinstall both. This is a limitation from earlier betas and will not be an issue with the Entrenchment release."

I hope this information helps to resolve this problem.

As a friend of Pompeiis he convinced me to try and reproduce the problem (even after he did it twice) and to make a long story short..... it did

Don't try and verify the build. I had to do "things" to try and make it as happy as possible for people who had the previous betas and that's something that it's not happy with atm.

If you did run verify for some reason, run the sinsentrench_post2.exe file. It'll delete the 2 files that the EXE is keying on to see that you had uninstalled.

Thanks for the prompt response. Its good to hear you already knew about the problem, and the program that you mentioned fixed it.

Let me go get the torches and pitchforks out...LOL

cant seem to find my saved games or custom maps

How exactly is this beta better?
