Which patches do I need?
I finally found a copy of Giants and have installed it. I will download and install patch 1.4 to get the game to the latest version. But I just found this web site and see that there are other patches available. I will not be playing online (It's just not my thing. And besides I am a terrible jumper, shooter, etc. so I would just make other people unhappy if I tried to play with them) so will it help if I install the new patches I have seen here? Or should I just stick with the "Official" patches?

You can use GRM if you use 1.4, which adds nicer looking effects and textures.
1.5 (1.497) adds weather to the maps, fixes some crashes and adds a few other graphical enhancements (but not as many as GRM.)
I think you should at least give multiplayer a try with 1.497 in the patches section though, it's really a lot of fun.

How about the GeForce 3 patches?
I am running an nVidia 7200 GTS with 512 MB VidRAM. Will I get better graphics if I install the GeForce 3 patch?
I have installed the 1.4 Patch, Giants Hook, GRM and 1.497 patches.
