Anybody...

[Lusche]

.. still got an installer for a previous AH version after 2.14? Preferably? 2.20, 2.30 etc (but any else would do too). Or the updater from 2.14 to another version? 

[wil3ur]

I have exe's for 2230, 2240 2232 2233 2241 2241 2242 thru2244, 2242 thru 2245 2242to2243 2245to2250 2250thru2252 2250to2251 2252to2261 and 2261 to 2263....  Heading to work, but I can get these to you when I get back home tonight.

PM me w/ e-mail address and what you need.

[Lusche]

Arrrgh.. dam typo.

Meant to type after 2.21 patch 4, not 2.14 

But thanks for the offer, Volron 

[Volron]

No worries.  I'm not all there...   Just now noticed you preferred 220+ (now cleared to 2214).

numbers are not my friends...

Thanks to wil3ur and curry1    I'm slowly getting the picture of what happened and when after patching my way up step for step from 2214 to 2232 

At the moment it seems one of the patches fixing AMD dual core issues actually started them for me.

I'm not sure what you're trying to do.  But....

As you're probably aware the download page links to version 2263:

http://downloads.hitechcreations.com/AH2263.EXE

But if you change the 4 digits to another version, it appears they still exist on the download server.  For example, the version stored on my hard drive is AH2131.EXE, when I plug that in I get:

http://downloads.hitechcreations.com/AH2131.EXE and it still works.

I tried a few others from wil3ur's list and they seem to work as well.  So HTC is apparently keeping the old install executables available, just not linking to them directly.  So, if there's a specific version you want, you can probably still get it by changing the number in the address bar.


Edit:  I just downloaded version 2102, which was the version from July 2007 when I first signed up to the BBS, likely also the same time I first played.  So its reasonable to assume every old version is still available.  If you want a version from a certain time period you might check the Announcements forum to see which version came out when: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/board,11.0.html

HACKS!!!!!!!!

There's an odd confession from a numbers and stats guy.   

[BoilerDown]

I did a lil' checking and it appears that 2102 just so happened to be the last version that was released while the old freeloader 8-player H2H was still enabled.  I wonder if it still works or if you needed to log in to their servers... I never did even try it.

While it has the old name it is always the most recent version.

Now that is some hax.  But I think you might be right, the 2131 version I can download doesn't correspond with the filesize of the one on my hard drive.  The thing that makes me doubt is the 2102 version I downloaded isn't the same byte size as the latest version, 2263.  But they are so close I doubt its the original 2102.  And I'm unwilling to actually uninstall/reinstall to test it.
