Did you have the disc installed when you tryed to do v1.2 update ?
Also I noticed you need Alcohol 120% to burn it
Nero may work tho, but EZCD creator doesn't.

all i had to do was drag and drop the files to a folder and then extract them after it was allready on my comp

i dunno but is it possible that it may be a pirated version??? could tha be a reason that the updates dont work?

First thing you need to do is find out if it's the downloaded version.
here is a fast way to check , go into your UI/botlab directory and check the size of this file "appearance.gib" if it's 21k you have the cd version.
Intall v1.2 of robot arena . If that still does not work you out of luck. if it does then after you install 1.2 install DSL , then V1.2 of DSL.

I burned it before by just dragging everything onto the CD in Windows, only problem was some weird ass texture problems (arena textures would flash like it was a techno club for example). Still, it worked, so it was cool.

Also, if it's the download version, don't we have a download version patch? I could have swore... :?
