Error installing patch?
« on: April 14, 2000, 12:50:00 PM »
After I DLd the patch and tried installing, I got this error on three attempts to install:

The file
C:\PROGRA~1\HTC\ACESHI~1\stdshapes.res
is not a valid previous version and could not
be upgraded

What should I do?

I think there's a possibility of a wider spread problem.  See my post under Tech Support threads.  I'm not sure if Hitech Creations has a 911 number before it gets too widely distributed.

I hope it's just localized to our systems.

How about by the auto-update method?

Yeager...

DO NOT use page on WEB site for update.  It is currently pointing to wrong file.

Use this...
