Hello Racers.
If all goes well, Patch Y will be released later this week. The release will be available on the automatic updater system (although we'll provide a manual patch install as well).
For the automatic updater to work, there must be a tiny program in your LFS folder called "LFS_restart.exe". Some people have deleted this file as they did not know what it was. So ORION has made a nice looking icon for it. I've attached an updated version of LFS_restart.exe to this post. It's in a zip file - just save the exe in the zip file to your LFS folder.
What this program does : It extracts the patch files that LFS has downloaded in the correct order, then asks you if you want to restart LFS. There is another small update in the LFS restart program, so you may want to get this even if you have not deleted your existing one.
After the restart program has installed updates, it asks if you want to restart LFS. The small change in this new one is that it does not delete the patch file(s) until you answer that question (Yes or No). This is helpful for some users who have multiple installs and they may wish to use the patch file(s) on another of their LFS installations. So, if you want to use the auto updater and keep the patch files, simply move them somewhere else before you answer the "Restart?" question.
