Re: Franco Prussian Mod?

All, I have found the sprites for the 1870 Mod. It was somewhere on google. Long search. I have been attempting to convert over the sprites to SOWGB. I am using the same conversion work I did for converting Alessilo's FTG Mod for TC2M, which worked out and runs well. However. it has been a real grin...

Re: Franco Prussian Mod?

Hey All,

Forgive me if this is a re-post. Internet acting up.....again.

Does anyone know where to find the TC2M Franco-Prussian War Mod sprites? I've had a re-kindling of interest in that time period and think I can mod them over into play on SOWGB. Thanks in advance.

Hey All, Here we go again - Laptop crashed. Got upgraded to windows 11 in shop. Reset everything. Have downloaded and installed SOWWL twice. All updates in. Won't play. Reset compatibility to windows 8, (best I can get), still no joy. SOWWL crash text says no plant life loading. Everything else work...

Re: New Computer install issue.....again

Jolly,

Molon Labe - as you know is a reference to King Leonidas and his Spartans not giving up their swords to King Xerxes (I think) at Thermopylae. It has since been co-opted by those of us who are hugely 2nd Amendment oriented.

Re: Can't find a file

RB and Biondo, Reb - thanks for the reply. I have been able to port over troop sprites in the past from SOWGB to SOWWL. That worked with very minor glitches. The flag thing stumps me, as it should be roughly the same. I think it may have something to do with the Flag sprites being tga files and also...

Can't find a file

Hey All, For the life of me, I can't find the text document in SOWWL which says "you screwed up, this didn't load right because the game can't find it and so CTD". In SOWGB it is a SOWGB text document in the "Works" folder, but I can't find anything like that in SOWWL. I trying t...

Matrix downloads

And now.....more fun and excitement.

Loading in SOWWL today. Matrix has decided to not allow me to update to the latest version so I can't put in the extras like Ligny, etc. 

Any ideas as to what is going on?
