No one is claiming that the demo exe screws the game. What we were saying is that it probably removes any benefits of installing the updates as some of the corrections they have made to the code could very well be inside the demo exe.

When you play with the demo exe, you play with a code OLDER than 1.0. You play with demo code! How hard is it understand?!
If it suits you, fine, whatever... Those of us that want to actually play an updated game won't use it |

The .exe file is simply a starting point, the real code is contained in the .dll files. |
while that may be true, it still could contain changes and using it with an update could produce errors. But who gives a monkey. I played through the game unpatched and only encountered one crash.

People don't get the fact that when you compile the engine, 3-10MB EXE is enough. It's the SOURCE CODE, not any of the media (i.e. textures, maps, etc). Then, various obfuscators and compressors are run on the exe to make it difficult (read: impossible) to reverse-engineer the source code (hence the even smaller EXE size). Then the protection company gets their hands on the EXE, infests it with shit, and the master cd is pressed. Some final testings are done and CD/DVD is ready for replication/manufactoring.
Ofcourse, source code can be split into many DLLs, so the EXE may not be all the source code, but it usually (as in not allways) constains the main code. Usually other DLL files are external libs used by the game (EAX, Bink, etc).

Procyon - retail DVD9 edition with fixed bugs
Detonation is a steam rippers group - games taken from steam , but its buggy as hell and u cant use the patches becoz of the steam rip
take the Procyon , less buggy and with the 1.1 patch all the bus are gone that are still in the Steam-rip edition |
Actually I have completed the Detonation version. It ran very well, I think I had the game crash once in total. The best part is before you unrar it you can burn it to a DVD instead of needing a DVD9 or 2 DVDs. Its definitely the best version to get. The DVD version before being patched is the buggy one!

Could you make a screenshot of the dvd dir? Deleted a few days ago, so can't check it myself. Maybe there's a way to split the installation.
Make that screenshot in details view, so I could see the sizes of the files.
