1.4 Difficulty/base Disjoint/old Sfx Patch

[Majorlag]

As far as I know, the easiest way to fix the difficulty and base disjoint bugs is outlined in this thread. Using this technique and bspatch I've created an easy to use patch that:

• Fixes the difficulty bug
  
• Fixes the base disjoint bug
  
• Installs the old 1.2 sound effects provided by Inteck
  

All changes are optional. To use the patch:

1. Backup your XCOM folder
   
2. Extract the contents of multi-patch.zip to the XCOM folder
   
3. Double click on the patch.bat file in the multi-patch folder
   

This patch is relatively untested but is based on the xcomutil solution so it should work fine. Use at your own risk.

I can't believe I didn't mention this before, but this patch requires Windows (anything 95 or above should work). However, if I ever obtain a DOS version of bspatch I can update it so it will work in DOSBox for the non-windows users.
