i haven't played crossfire in a while and uninstalled it about 6 months ago.... i just tried to install it and i keep getting that error when i try starting up the game... how do i fix this?

Do this. Go to C Drive and the following. C:/Program Files (86x)/Z8Games/CrossFire and run patcher_cf. It should look like this.

This is manual patching.

That isn't manually patching. Manually patching is downloading each file and putting them into the Crossfire individually.

Make sure you have your anti-virus software turned off while attempting to patch. Better yet, uninstall Crossfire again, then re-download it, because your anti-virus may have made some of Crossfire's files corrupt.

It's kinda manually, you make auto patch work. You manually do auto patch?

patcher_cf.exe is the exact same thing as the autopatch, same file and everything. The problem is usually an anti-virus not allowing Crossfire to connect to the patch server, so it can't download the patch. Has nothing to do with manual/auto patch.
