that this version of the patch only works with the full retail CD version of the game distributed in England. It will not work on other versions, it will not work if any original files were changed.
Be advised that there are several different releases of the 1.32 update ("patch") - needed for different online and retail versions of the game as released in various territories. Is is important that you select the proper patch for your particular edition of the game, otherwise you will not be able to update your game!
Troubleshooting: In some cases, it may be necessary to place the patch file into the folder where the game was installed (example: "C:\Program Files\German Truck Simulator\").
For The online "Trymedia" edition, as downloaded from germantrucksimulator.com:
1. There is no separate "patch file" -
please download the full setup file (marked "demo") of the latest German Truck Simulator.
2. Uninstall your older version of the game. Don't worry about losing the license, it is stored in a different location than the game installation folder. Your valid license for the game survives through this and following steps, there is no need to re-activate. The game save files will also survive re-installation, they are also stored in a different location. Caution: this update may affect compatibility with game "mods," in case of problems, always try to remove mods first to see if it helps!
3. Install the freshly downloaded 1.32 edition of the game
4. Play!
