The R.G.Mechanics Assassin's Creed 3 Patch and Fix Guide

(1.) Make sure your game is completely compatible with Assassin's Creed 3. Even right down to the amount of memory your computer has can effect the out come of gameplay.


(2.) Some of you may come across errors where your missing DLL's. Don't download these from the internet because it just leaves the game with more errors. You have to have either WINDOWS VISTA - SERVICE PACK 2 or WINDOWS 7 - Service Pack 1 installed as your windows operating system. If not, then you will have to upgrade like I did. Sorry!


(3.) R.G.Mechanics version of Assassin's Creed 3 is the Russian version of the game. So you will need to download the Russian patches for this game.


If you have downloaded the English patch versions (which won't work with this version of the game). You will get the following popup as seen below.


"This updated is not compatible with the current installed game"


No worries.. All you have to do is download the Russian patch versions of the game. The file names should look like these (AssassinsCreed3Updater1.02_RUS.exe,AssassinsCreed3Updater1.03_RUS.exe, AssassinsCreed3Updater1.04_RUS.exe, AssassinsCreed3Updater1.05_RUS.exe, AssassinsCreed3Updater1.06_RUS.exe)


You can get them here: http://www.gamershell.com/patch_download_archive_A.html

And v1.02 RUS here: http://www.patches-scrolls.com/assassins_creed3.php


(4.) Now when trying to run the new patches you will be faced with the next difficult error. This error is quite tricky and is the error that took me hours to figure out. Please follow the next instructions carefully and do it step by step. Be Patient!


When trying to run the patches you will get this error as below...


"Couldn't backup file C:\Program Files\Assassin's Creed III\multi\DataPC.forge to file C:\Program Files\Assassin's Creed III\PATCH_BACKUP\multi\DataPC.forge"


the next one...


"An error occured during updating multi\DataPC.forge"


Now follow these next steps for each version your installing. You will have to do each step the same way for each patch!


1. Open your Temp folder. Easily done by (start button and running %Temp%) or by going to (C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp)


2. Delete all files and folders (that you can) in your Temp directory.


3. Open your first patch which should be v1.02... DO NOT click anything!.. Just open it!


I'm going to use v1.04 patch as an example for this next step.




4. Go back to your Temp directory and open the {CBF46C3A-CAC4-41B2-B055-4CF3A81AEE36} folder.


Each version has a different name. Remember, I'm using v1.04 as an example.


5. Open the DISK1 folder inside the folder like above. Next, open the deltaFiles folder. Then, open the multi folder.




6. Delete everything you see inside the multi folder. It should be empty if you do it correctly.


7. Continue running your patch and it should patch your game to that version without a problem.




You have to do all 7 steps above for each patch!




You don't have to do the steps above for patch v1.06!




NOW YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ENJOY THE GAME!!!
