Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

<r>He uses mods. It's hard to get someone to test the game for many hours without mods, so I appreciate all the data you're giving, John.<br/> <br/> It would be especially helpful (any time you're willing to), after each game put a new row in this spreadsheet:<br/> <URL url="https://docs.google.com/...

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

<t>For what it's worth, one of our windows-8 crashers has had the problem for at least 6 months and is playing singleplayer only. Sometimes he can go 3-5 games without a crash, and then it happens again. This crashing only started after getting windows 8, so I'm betting on it being the same crash. M...

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

<r>@LP, Hopefully you can find someone with this windows 8 problem to test Waterloo before it's released, and maybe find the crash. It's understandable that SOWGB has a problem on windows 8 since the game was released two years before the OS. But when Waterloo is released, I wouldn't be surprised if...

Re: SOW-Gettysburg runs sluggish

No Chromey, even if you overclock these cpus they won't get anywhere near as fast as post-2010 cpus. The number of ghz is only directly related to performance when comparing two processors of the same type.

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

<t>By "normal windows 8 crash" I meant the crash that often occurs in SOW on windows 8. I agree, it seems to be an SOW problem -- I don't know of other games that crash often on windows 8 but not on 7.<br/> <br/> This is really annoying, and like I said earlier, no definite fix has been found yet ex...

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

<r>That sounds like the normal windows 8 crash. Thanks for reporting everything, I hope you continue to do so as it's useful if we can get some statistics on this crash happening with and without mods. I don't know anyone willing to play with no mods just to test this. <E>:)</E><br/> <br/> So far, w...

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

How many games have you tried with no mods that played all the way through?

Re: SOW Gettysburg and Win 8 ??

Oh ok, so the player who had the dfferent version of the map wasn't in that battle. That would explain why it loaded when the other ones didn't.
