Someone else was complaining that the latest patch was messing stuff up that
way.  My personal approach would be to try making a backup copy of the modified
engine that came with the latest patch, then try uninstalling the patch (should
be posible) then copy the backed up copy of the engine back into the engines
directory.

I'm ONLY guessing that that might fix your problem, and you'd still have the
engine that came with that patch fwiw.
