Re: 1.4 Patch Question
So why is that when you install a new patch that the in game version number does not correspond. I must admit it had me wondering the first time I installed a new patch whether I had got the right one. Any one know the answer....?
Lets ask the discovery channel - How Its Made ! lolComment

Re: 1.4 Patch Question
I don't have the answer of why the build number is a certain number. The build number is a way that the developers can tell which version is in use. They could be trying several versions of 1.4 with various tweaks in house. How would they be able to tell the difference? By giving each build a different number. So that number has nothing to do with which patch you are currently using, it is which build they 'landed on.' Now I don't know why it doesn't even look like a '1.4.something' number...but someone else can surely help out.Comment

The patch numbers are just a way for the user to keep things straight, ie...1.1, 1.2, 1.21, etc.Originally posted by scknightI don't have the answer of why the build number is a certain number.

The build numbers are all of the different versions used to get to the final patch release.
For 1.4 we had:
1.4beta1 - 1.1.2925.757.0
1.4beta2 - 1.1.2940-772.0
1.4 final - 1.1.2963.795.0
There was also:
1.1.2961.793.0
1.1.2962.794.0
It would be nice to have both the build and patch version numbers in the game though.Comment
