<r>Hi Folks,<br/> <br/> I haven't been around for a while, I became completely disillusioned with SOW Waterloo when I continually failed to download the large patch ...... and finally, when I got it, it refused to install. I have been happily going along with TC2M and Gettysburg in the interim. Both...

<t>Hi Mitra 76,<br/> <br/> Yes indeed. The absence puzzled me too. I did a manual search also of all the Waterloo files and could not find it either. But this is Zimbabwe ..... if anything can go wrong, it will. <br/> <br/> Thanks very much for the alternative link. I will try it a bit later in the ...

Jim,

Thanks for the reply.

I didn't even get the file downloaded.

I got this response when clicking 'check for updates' on the Waterloo opening screen.

<t>I just went in belatedly to install the patch only to be told that "update.exe" cannot be found.<br/> <br/> To save me downloading the whole Waterloo thing again, can someone send me a copy of this file and tell me where it has to be inserted ?<br/> <br/> Assuming it is not too big of course.. Th...

How will the new version after the patch interface with the Kriegsspiel mod ?

Will Kriegsspiel overwrite anything vital in the patch or need to be re-tuned at all ?

<t>For the first time on record,I have virtually given up and stopped playing a Norbsoftdev Game as I wasn't enjoying it one bit.<br/> <br/> This game is just too quirky for words. Over-ambitious and well out of the comfort zone. Get back to ACW just as soon as possible please.<br/> <br/> I have bee...

<t>In SOWGB even the highest formation commanders had a 'line' formation on the bar. I always found this useful to get an army or a Corps 'on the move' in the right direction. Then you could drop down the formations and fine tune.<br/> <br/> SOWWL does not have this facility. By the time you move an...

<t>Hi Saddletank<br/> <br/> <br/> I just bit the bullet and decided to re-try the Zip Extract tonight rather than Thursday.<br/> <br/> Eureka ! I got the correct Sprites Mod File and everything now works OK. Hallelujah,<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Geoff Laver Late of Her Britannic Majesty's 57th Regiment...

<r>Thanks Saddletank,<br/> <br/> I think you have hit the problem.<br/> <br/> The download of the sprites mod might well have gone wrong. As I recall I only got from the unzipping process a file called 'graphics' which I assumed, seemingly wrongly, embodied the mod and had all the sprites.<br/> <br/...

<r>Hi MTG<br/> <br/> Thanks for the prompt reply.<br/> <br/> Sorry. I confirm having the 1.08 version of both the Kriegsspiel Basic Mod and the Supplementary Maps Mod. I loaded them down only a week ago. I remember it well ...... took me three whole nights on my slow satellite link !<br/> <br/> I un...
