Reb, I didn't get a second chance to test it last night, but for whatever reason, your toolbar stopped working for me (and everyone else). Just wanted to let you know in case you felt like messing with it. I shall try to get a more detailed rundown when I can.
Thanks a bunch guys. I'm upgrading to a new modem/router, so maybe I'll be able to host soon. This way I can really nail and fix any toolbar bugs, and evolve something that will be universally useful, or make variants thereof.

Worked for me in that game, Parker. I know sspoom (host) added Reb's toolbar to his GCM mod like I did, and I think it worked for him as well.

Not sure what you mean by "added it to" GCM. Done via the launcher?

It didn't work for Robinson, Writer, Kester (maybe), and myself, at least.


It also made Baldwin not attack like he was supposed to... :ohmy:

He combined Reb's toolbar with the GCM Mod. Actually, I did it and emaild it to him. That's why the skirmish formation is back to stock when either of us host. But I combined them a week or two ago and have been using it since then when I host.

You can't have Garnier's mod and Reb's toolbar mod enabled at the same time, so I combined them so the host can have the toolbar too.

i had no trouble running it either, you guys must have launched GCM. when you do the GCM mod activates and closes out the toolbar mod.

@Parker way to stay on thread, and yes I blew it by not seizing that ground ahead of time like my gut was telling me.

Someone has to keep things stirred up around here, or else the pace of conversation will gradually settle to the bottom like so much silt.

At least you made the minimal effort to TC a regiment and try to column snake it through my lines ala XNS.

Just testing out how far you can get in column, now I know. At least I didn't send my brigade like he does that way.
