You can either log onto GameSpy through the "Multiplayer Game" menu and auto-download Patch 4, or download Patch 3 here which will add the "Check for Updates" button to the menu. You will then be able to click it to install Patch 4. Rise of Nations Retail Patch 3 (10.8MB - version 02.03.11.0302)

1 - Click the start button and select "Run".
2 - Type in "cmd" and press enter. This will bring up the command prompt window. (For Win9x users, select the command prompt from the start menu)
3 - Type in "cd\" and then "cd X", where X is the location of the main Rise of Nations folder on your system. (Eg. cd Program Files\Microsoft Games\Rise of Nations)
4 - Once in the root folder for Rise of Nations, type "rise /patch patch.rtp /p". The patch should then begin to install.
To verify the patch has installed: To check what version of the game that you have, start Rise of Nations and select "Tools & Extras" from the main menu. Then select "About Rise of Nations" and you should see the version listed at the top of the window.
