there's no readme in the 3.1b release. just the .exe file.
you can find the readme in the 3.1 version of the patch: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=266 (http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=266)

Note that all other files (except for terranx.exe) from the 3.1 patch are needed for 3.1b as well.

If you only install 3.1, the game will still work; it simply has some bugs (which would be present even in the unpatched version if they weren't hidden by bigger bugs) when conquering a base from  ;ulrik; or  ;cha;, or when using certain modded factions.

Yitzi, there was a question on Facebook if your patch will work on XP service pack 3....

If SMAX works on service pack 3 without needing a different executable, my patch should as well.

Yes, it does. No issues seen.

Hey, I don't know if I've stuffed something up, but the game seems to crash whenever I try to attack wild lifeforms. This is a bit of an issue, given they tend to pop up a fair bit.

Edit: To specify: The issue seems to be ones out of pods.

Edit 2: Okay, that's weird. I can attack Towers, but not anything else. Wild or Pods.

Edit 3: And now it's unplayable. Seems to be crashing at the end of the turn (press Space). Sooo, yeah. Cannae complete. Save at http://tinyurl.com/ozrl9kj (http://tinyurl.com/ozrl9kj)

Thank you.  I found the bug, and 3.1c should be up shortly.  Simply loading the savegame and playing with 3.1c will work fine.
