CMBB v1.02 PATCH (Windows)

This patch is for the version of CMBB purchased from Battlefront.com ONLY (US version). It will not work with the CDV (European) version. The newly released Special Edition version does NOT need any patches applied.

If you have bought CM2 (European name for CMBB, distributor: CDV) at CompUSA or any other US retail location, please note that this is the European/UK version of the game, and as such is not supported by Battlefront.com directly. Please direct any support/service inquiries to CDV Software Entertainment AG in Germany.

Download the Multilingual Patch for the CDV UK, French and German Versions HERE.

or here

For the version 1.02 patch, use ONLY the multilingual patch!!! The CDV specific language versions for the 1.02 patch do not appear to update properly but the multilingual patch works properly!


We strongly suggest you review the patch ReadMe before you apply the patch.

You can view the Readme online HERE
