The hotfix to version 1.04.1a, which should provide an improved system resource handling was released on January 19, 2007. It requires version 1.04.1 being installed and does not change anything in case of balancing or game resource. That is the reason why it does not create synchronization problems in multiplayer sessions if one player does not have it installed. There is only one international release of this hotfix which can be installed on every installation of the game, independent of the language or settings.
