Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda...

 

Do you need to patch? Unless you want to eliminate the possibility of Hot Coffee/modding ever occurring on your game, there's little point.

 

You'll get that error message whenever you've got an executable that differs from the one the patch was made for. The problem might well lie in that you have an Australian version (like me - although the Australian patch should address that...) Are you using a crack of any sort?

 

Meh, unless there's something you need the patch for, just be like me and stick with 1.00.

Is that something the patch addresses, or are you one of those people who encounters an error and thinks "gee whiz, the patch surely will fix this"?

 

The bottom line is that unless the patch states "addresses game loading problem" or something like that, it's not going to help.
