However, a file of the same name was found. No update done ...

Forgot to mention the file it could not update was:

DESCENTR.EXE

Just ran the D1-14a.exe patch got this unusual message when running PATCH.EXE:

"error ept0036: Old File not found. However, a file of the same name was found. No update done since file contents do not match."

What on earth is happening to me??

dx143mw.exe
also tried the _oglmw same result strange error message

Just tried the patch, does not work! Flashes the following error:

Just one SMALL issue, I am talking about the all time classic, the FIRST Descent!!

Does anyone know if a proper 3D card compatible version or patch was ever released and where it can be got? I would love to play it in 1024x768 with 16 bit textures yum!
