8Player patch for TFD

My friend is running xp windows and when he installs the 8player patch for TFD for the version1.00.09 I had him get the patch from Sabrecorps, It shows 8player on the option screen before starting game but only allows 4 players in the game.Any ideas i can pass on to him? Works great for me but i have windows98, He has installed and re-installed several times. Thnx

i don't know the answer to that one. i use XP & have not had any trouble. Othello updated the exe in September, i don't recall why, your frieand may want to try the executable from our downloads area.
