Re: Is there a way to fire double canister in scourge of war?
Not as an explicit ammo type. There is a partially effective tweak in the existing canister code that leads to more increased casualties at very short ranges.

Re: Windows 10 - New Findings
I have been using Win 10 Home since August with no issues beyond the known settings of compatibility and admin.

Matrix is handling the marketing for GB, you will need to ask them what their current policies are.

Re: Windows 10 Screen
Also check and see what your screen resolution is set at. If it is the same as your screen full screen and not will look the same. Also you many need to check the 'Run as administrator' box as well.

Re: Multi Core support?
According to the Resource Monitor on my system, SOWWL.exe has an entry that moves in the range of about 8.3 to 9.1 in the Average CPU column. At least Windows thinks the game is using a lot more than one core of the CPU.

Re: Update file missing
The patch #2 file is called: SOWWLPatch2.exe of a size of 37 MB and should be located wherever you have your downloads set to arrive, the default is C:\Users\[name]\Downloads. There is no separate file called update.exe as far as I know.

Re: Uniform bugs
<t>These are not bugs, they are design choices. We decided to continue to make this game playable on 32 bit Windows XP systems. Because of this decision we have a hard limit in how much memory the total game can use. If we go above that limit, the game crashes with high reliability. Uniforms are a s...

Re: Vegatation/Objects causing massive amount of lag (GTX 750 ti)
<t>There are several adjustments in the Options that will significantly affect FPS, try turning down % trees and perhaps draw distance. Also the size of the battle will make a large difference due to the AI load. As a practical note, most people find anything over 15 FPS to be fully successful in te...
