Patch U to Patch V udate
When I download the undate to patch V from patch you how do I make it be patch V? Because I can when I go into the Patch v u update file and I extract it it still does not work. I can still only see 1 server because it says I do not have patch V...can someone help me. Also I have tryed downloading the full version of patch V but when i go to unlock my S2 account on it instead of demo it says too many unlocks this month...I unlocked on a different computer once and back onto this one again so that would be 3....Any suggestions?
OK now which one do I open to play LFS with?

LFS.exe, like always
I don't really know what you mean. If you did install to the correct location, your actual LFS folder, then there will be no choice which file to open. Because the new one will have overwritten the old one. So there is only one LFS.exe.

A common mistake is to extract the patch into some totally different place on your hard drive (wherever it was downloaded to). But that is wrong and will not work. You must make sure before extracting, that the installation file is actually situated in your LFS folder.

P.S. This kind of confusion is the reason for the new auto update system. When V is installed, future patches will be automatically installable.
OK I did it wrong! Thanks guys!
Will it work if I wait 2 days and unlock it from scratch on lfs_ALPHA_V then I could move my data folder from Alpha U to ALPHA V. Would this work? Or do I have to update?
I wouldn't recommend moving the entire data folder if you plan to unlock first, as there is a file within there which contains the unlock information. To be safe just copy the stuff you actually need (its pretty safe to copy everything but the misc folder).
ok ill delete the misc folder from the data folder and copy the whole folder. Much quicker!
