Patch 1.3 - A solution

Many players with NVIDIA accelerator card are having problems with Singles 2 after they up dated their graphic driver: The characters are invisibles (eyes & teeth only). And when they install the 1.3 patch... They are still having problems and the "Extensions" subfolder of the game is gone, so no more add-ons !

Here is how to install the 1.3 patch correctly: This tip is from SteveXY and Doberlec. A few players tried it with success. But it is important to follow the steps one by one.

-After up dating your graphic driver correctly (see here for help)

-Put in a safe place on your computer a copy of: your save games, add-ons from your Extensions folder and any modify files that you have (game.cfg, character.lua, etc.)

-Make a clean/complete uninstall of Singles 2. The 1.3 patch won't work if 1.1 and 1.2 is install, so make sure to uninstall them too.

-Create a folder on your desktop an name it "DX". Update your DirectX 9.0c from here. Use the "Execute" button, no need to save the file. When ask , use your "DX" folder from the desktop to extract the files. When finish, open the DX folder and use the DXSETUP.exe... The up date will run by it self.

-Verify if you can see this file: d3dx9_26.dll in your c:\Windows\system32. If not, you made a mistake and the patch will fail.

-Re install Singles 2

-Install the patch 1.3 (download here or here for CD version and here for "on line shopping" version. Please note that the patch for the "on line" version don't work for the "Download-Version" from Ubisoft or Gamesload! (The site is in German but the patches are multi)

-Try the game to see if everything is OK. The version 1.3 is showing at the beginning of the game,
no texture problems. Good!

-Create the missing "Extensions" folder as a subdirectory of your Singles2 and replace your add-ons.

-Replace also your save games and modify files at the right place.

-Delete the "DX" folder.

That's it! Enjoy the game!
