Getting the sprits that came with the CD to work

[NY Cavalry]

I have a cd version of the game and was trying to get the extra sprites to work that came with the cd, but the mod causes the game to crash every time. Has anyone else had this problem? I have a good puter and I know how to troubleshoot mods, but this one I cannot figure out.

The extra sprites are the Louisiana Tigers, and a Alternate Sprites Mod.

In the included OOB, add a column after 'K (Class)'. Pretty sure this OOB is before the OOBMOD column was added, so that should fix it.

If not, then the unpacked sprites may be an issue. Regardless, this does need an update patch for the original CD. Thanks for the alert.

RebBugler,

I tried an Open Play game using the Louisiana Tigers Mod, OOB_SB-Gettysburg_LT-Day_1_Jackson
and I got the following errors in the log after the game didn't load, it ended right after 'Loading' GFX wheel ....

08:00:00 Flag not found while loading unit: Maj Gen Oliver O Howard|UGLB_USA_INF_CDR_CORPS
08:00:00 ----------------loading: GFX_FlagFlair
08:00:00 ----------------loading: GFX_Wheel
08:00:00 ERROR - No men designated for Maj Gen Oliver O Howard.

I fired up the 1st scenario in Cemetary Hill Scenarios (GBB02), found Hays and the Tigers, but they had gray uniforms and no Tigers....

The crash is caused by the change over to packed sprites in 1.4 and the changes to the csvs that that caused.

Try these modified csvs - http://www.mediafire.com/?z632elc6tm98563

Copy the logistics folder to your Alternate Sprites Mod folder.

Important

This link does not contain any sprites, only csvs. It is for those who already have the original SoW GB CD's alternate sprites. Do NOT use these csvs for any other mod as it reinstates some unpacked sprites.

Hopefully, NSD will make a packed version available at some point.

Thanks Crikey,

It worked well in the scenario GBCH01 but in Sandbox with the Louisiana Tigers Mod enabled and using the OOB_SB-Gettysburg_LT-Day_1_Jackson , it fails to load and in the log :

07:00:00 Loading Arsenal
07:00:00 NOT FOUND ID - IDS_ARSN_MODEL_1861S_SPRINGFIELD_USA_2
07:00:00 NOT FOUND ID - IDS_ARSN_MODEL_1861S_SPRINGFIELD_USA_200

and

07:00:00 Flag not found while loading unit: Maj Gen George G Meade|UGLB_USA_INF_CDR_ARMY
07:00:00 ----------------loading: GFX_FlagFlair
07:00:00 ----------------loading: GFX_Wheel
07:00:00 ERROR - No men designated for Maj Gen George G Meade.
07:00:00 BAD FORMATION ID: -1

and also again for :

Flag not found while loading unit: Maj Gen Oliver O Howard|UGLB_USA_INF_CDR_CORPS

Maybe it is a problem with the LT OOB's.

Thanks

I haven't included the tigers just the alternate stock sprites. The tigers were separate if I remember.

I can take a look at those when I have a spare slot.

Btw - Does the alternate sprites work okay on other oobs and with other mods disabled?

[Crikey]

Here are the updated csvs for the Louisiana Tigers Mod. This is separate from the Alternate Sprites mod as per the original CD bonus package.

You need to delete the csvs in the Louisiana Tigers mod's logistics and OOB folder.

Then replace them with those in the download.

Follow the readme that came with the original mod to see in game.

@ Crikey \ Chamberlain ,

Hey, how is everything going!

I had to rename the uniform CSA_1 - to CSA_15 to get it to show up along with the default grey CSA_1 uniform.

How are you-guys getting both CSA_1 uniforms to show up?

Hey Davinci,

Everything here is going fine, Thanks.....

I see you are just as busy here with your 10 mile map - which is awesome and I cannot wait for your updated map...

I just downloaded and installed Crickey's "updated csvs for the Louisiana Tigers Mod", fired it up and they were there.... :ohmy:
