Actually, I think it was still vanilla when installed. I 'updated' and the version reads as '2.0' so I think nothing was downloaded. Should 1.7 be installed with vanilla? I saw comments that basic bugs aren't fixed, such as swoop racing but that you could update the patches later? The launcher shows that it is the RCM, so I figured it was installed properly. To test this, what's the first major difference that you come across? Was the skin with long hair and beard available in vanilla? I don't remember it. I'm not using a nocd crack, though it would nice to be able to as I like to save my play discs the wear, considering this is the sort of game that I could play every few years and each play through gets a good 40-60 hours. Funny, it wasn't happening before, but now I get the flying on ceiling bug. I really enjoyed the swoops in the first game, so it's a shame I've never been able to play it in the second. ~D

Sorry if this has been discussed, but the other swoop bug threads didn't mention it. I've just started playing the TSLRCM and have got as far as Telos. I've been pleased so far, mainly because the PC I'm using now can run the game with top graphics settings, whereas before I had long load times and low settings. One problem was that the swoop races didn't seem to work at all. Well, now the actual race works fine, but whatever time I post I get told "Nasty spill you had out there. You have to finish the race in order..." as though I'd crashed and pressed 'F' to forfeit. Do I need to re-install one of the patches? If so, do I then need to reinstall RCM 1.7 and start over? Thanks for any help. ~D
