Combat Mission - Shock Force - Patch v1.32

Dieser Game Patch für Combat Mission - Shock Force behebt bzw. bietet folgende neue Updates sowie Verbesserungen für das Spiel:

!!! EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!
COMBAT MISSION SHOCK FORCE VERSION REQUIREMENT:
This v1.32 Patch requires Combat Mission Shock Force updated to v1.31!!

It does not matter where you purchased the game, or if you have any Modules installed or not. If you are playing CMSF v1.31 now, with or without any one of the modules or all of them, then you can install this patch.

!!!IMPORTANT!
PATCH INSTALLATION DIRECTORY REQUIREMENT:
The v1.32 Patch needs to be installed in the same directory that currently contains your v1.31 full version. The Patch will attempt to automatically select the correct folder for you, but due to the number of different game versions out there, this check is not always 100% accurate.
**Before installing, please make sure that the Installatin Path points to the correct folder, which contains your full version of CMSF v1.31!**

!!! IMPORTANT!
During installation, this patch will allow you to select which components of the game you would like to patch. Multiple choices are allowed, and you have to choose ALL the game components that you have currently installed for the patch to work correctly. The choices include:

- CMSF (you select this if you have just the base game and no modules installed)
- Marines Module (you select this if you have the Marines module)
- British Forces Module (you select this if you have the British Forces module)
- NATO Module (you select this if you have the NATO module)

Example: if you have CMSF and all three modules, you would make sure that ALL FOUR options are CHECKED.

Example Two: if you have CMSF and only the NATO module, and no other modules, you would make sure that the options for CMSF and NATO are CHECKED, and the options for Marines and British Forces are UNCHECKED

If you make a mistake, simply re-run the patch and make sure to select the right components to update.

PREVIOUS SAVE GAME COMPATIBILITY NOTE:
NOTE: Save games from v1.31 ARE COMPATIBLE with v1.32, provided that you save your turn-based games in the COMMAND phase (not the replay phase) before upgrading to v1.32.

COMPATIBILITY WITH MODS:
Due to the potential of conflicts with pre v1.32 game Mods, we advise uninstalling any mods prior to installing this Game patch. Mod authors will need to updated their mods using the v1.32 strings.txt embedded into the new "Version 132.brz" file.
