Im new to pol, and Im not good at scripts, im trying to install Age of Empires III, i have the disks, and i have gotten it to install to pol, but it wont run.
i have tryed to download the patch, but it only downloads so far then stops and does nothing.

Your POL version is not up-to-date it seems, last version is 3.8.8, use it or installer will not work properly.
