My patcher isn't working. It un-zips, then does nothing, as shown by this pic.

Before this happens, I clicked Setup and then a blue bar whizzed across the bottom.
What's going on?

P.S It's not Vista, it's a skin, k?

EDIT: By the way, I'm not trying to patch to go online, it froze at the loading screen.

sounds like it unzipped, then installed the patch, and is now waiting for you to play it....could be wrong though

I'm not sure if you actually have to apply the patch first if you're updating your game to the latest beta, as I believe it sorts out all of that for you.

Could be wrong though.

Indeed.
Just use the latest beta update v3.6.28.0 (http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=supp&area=upda&file=15).
If necessary, the installer will automatically download and apply the v3.00 patch for you (provided you have a working internet connection during install).

I tried playing it, but as before it froze at loading, and I had to alt-tab out and shut it down.

I'll try using this update, but I got the patch from this site.

How do I apply the patch?

As I said before, just use the beta update.
The beta update installer will automatically apply the patch if it's necessary.

This will only happen if you have an original v1.0 retail version of the game from 1999, so most
likely you won't need it.
And if, the beta installer will do it for you.

The Beta installer worked fine guys. And it worked on my brothers computer (Vista :)) Thanks for the help, and I've had a fun night of lan-blasting. :D
