Just a reminder that we don't allow asking for files that you can get off the original cd. So if what Starraider suggested doesn't work, you'll have to reinstall..

Sorry, but it works, first, when you have installed the Patch, you will find two files of Spellforce2 - Shadow Wars in your SystemControl, one file has the Date of Installing your game and one file shows unknown Date, both Files show you that you have installed 3.365 MB of the Game, the File with the unknown Date is the Patchfile, when you deinstall the File with the unknown Date, Spellforce2 in Version 1.0 is still in your Game Dir with your original installed Files and you can Start the Game as well, that works for me, try it and you will see, sorry for my english, i will hope you can understand it.

What do you mean by system control? Is it add/remove programs in the control panel?

You can try to copy the SpellForce2.exe and the protect.dll from your DVD and paste it into your SpellForce 2 game dir.
(After you have patched the game!).

It should be the same result...

If i use the original .exe, i don't think that the game uses the patch files. In the main menu it says game version 1.0 and build bla-bla-bla...

It will use some patched files.
There are plenty of users, who can confirm this.
For example a bug or more bugs which was/were gone after the patch, even if you use the orig exe and dll.

Maybe the patched exe and dll-file do only update the copyprotection.
Or some other minor things.
Who knows?...
