« on: January 01, 2005, 05:31:53 pm »

Hmmm... first of all, don\'t mess around with command if you don\'t know what you\'re doing (a weird command erases your HDD...?_?).

Secondly, that sounds a little strange.  Does it happen every single time you run the updater?

What OS are you using?  Any service packs?

Same problem here too. I have run the updater maybe ten times since I downloaded CB two days ago and I still haven\'t been able to start it. Would be nice to see what this game is actually like... :P

All that means is they either added a faulty call to a library file or didnt call it correctly or something, it shouldnt be hard to fix so hopefully they will fix it and tell us what to do soon, but right now lets let them do their work, they seem to be good at doing that :D

And... Yeeeeeees!!!!! :-)
I also manage to completely destroy my CB install by running the updater! :-P
It\'s the libz.dll malediction! :-)

i think there are every dll it is missing now, you need only copy libz-cs.dll libfreetype2-cs.dll to name without \"-cs\" as libz.dll libfreetype.dll
It wouldnt be horrible if it did to game, but how you can update when you cannot run updater :(
but copying libraries seem to help.
Please fix someone updater so it does not damage itself ;)
