If you are getting "Old File Not Found" errors and all of the following are true, here is a fix:
1.You are downloading Core Patch 2 over RenGuard (anyone doing anything else, go download over renguard like you are supposed to)
2.You already have Core Patch 1 installed
and 3.the downloader is downloading patchall.zip.

Or:
2.You dont have Core Patch 1 installed
and 3.the downloader is downloading cp2.zip

then, try this to see if it makes your problem go away.
Open regedit (go to start then run then type regedit).
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and then Software and then RenGuard.
Check for the PatchVersion entry, if it is not there or it is 0 and you have Core Patch 1 installed, create the entry as a new DWORD value (if it is not there) and set it to 1.
If you do not have Core Patch 1 installed, delete the entry (if its there) or set it to 0.

If you have Core Patch 2, it should exist and be set to 2.
If anyone is still getting "old file not found errors" and:
1.You are going through RenGuard
2.You have Core Patch 1 and its downloading cp2.zip
OR 3.You dont have Core Patch 1 and its downloading patchall.zip
Then, post here and I will diagnose further.

CP1 installed, running CP2 installation through renguard, but i'm receiving a 'old file missing' while it is trying to patch the always2.dat and it is saying that a file with the same name has been detected (then abord the cp2 install)... Got a hint for me about how to solve the problem?

Links should be available in this forum somewhere that link to copies of the files you can use that will get CP2 to install.

I do not have core patch 1. When the installer launches and I select "Install Core Patch" it gets as far as patchall.zip then the update program freezes.

edit: I found patchall.zip in my c/westwood/renegade file but it is corrupted...

try this to see if it makes your problem go away.
Open regedit (go to start then run then type regedit).
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and then Software and then RenGuard.
Check for the PatchVersion entry, if it is not there or it is 0 and you have Core Patch 1 installed, create the entry as a new DWORD value (if it is not there) and set it to 1.
If you do not have Core Patch 1 installed, delete the entry (if its there) or set it to 0.


I've tried that but it's still not working. I still have Old files does not exist.

The easiest way for you is to reinstall completely, following the "9 steps reinstall" sticky in the renegade client subforums.
