Just got a new laptop, installed the game and game diagnostics looks good-

Non-DirectPlay game path is 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11'
Verifying 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11\language_x1.dll' exists...
Success!
Verifying 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11\age2_x1\age2_x1.exe' exists...
Success!
Voobly path is 'c:\program files (x86)\voobly'
Game version is '1.0C-VLY'
Verifying 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11\language_x1_p1.dll' exists...
Success!
Checking DirectPlay libraries...
Looking for dpwsockx.dll...
Looking for dplayx.dll...
'c:\windows\system32\dplayx.dll' size: 213504 bytes
DirectPlay Init Success!
Scanning installed DirectPlay games...
Age of Empires II
Age of Empires II - The Conquerors Expansion [found]
Game was found in DirectPlay registry!
DirectPlay play thinks the game is installed at 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11'
DirectPlay command line is 'Lobby'
DirectPlay play thinks the game exe is at 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11\AGE2_X1\age2_x1.exe'
Verifying file exists... Success!
DirectPlay play thinks the language dll is at 'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft games\age of empires11\language_x1.dll'
Verifying file exists... Success!
Scanning 'c:\program files (x86)\voobly\gamedata\AOC\age2_x1.exe'
Success!

Everything looks fine. DirectPlay is configured and the game was found on your harddrive. If you still have problems try rejoining the lobby or restarting your computer.


But when i join a lobby it wants to download 1.4 patch but i am unable to download it as it says-
Could not find game installation directory -- please join a lobby and run game diagnostics

hi
does the game run ok completely off of voobly?
is the install from the game cd's?
1.4 should install to here: C:\Program Files[86]\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires II\Voobly Mods\AOC\Patches

Open your %programfiles% and find your game directory and just rename the folder (something as you like) and then join your game lobby, Voobly Game Diagnostics Tool dialog box will pop-up and asks you to browse and locate your exact game directory path (executable file) location. so from that you can change and you're done.
