Install Issue

Post by Hunter »

Hi all,

Just installed GB and then installed Chancellorsville into the GB directory. When I start the game, none of the Chancellorsville maps or scenarios appear in my menu options. What am I doing wrong?

After you start the game, can you see which Version number is showing?

I think that 1.5 or 1.6 is required for that map!

Yes I have 1.5
Didn't know there was a 1.6 I don't see a link.

I read this:
"Please note that if you upgrade your version to 1.5 by running the patch, you will also have to update any purchased map packs. By registering at Matrix Games, you can get access to all Scourge of War Downloads."
but I don't see where on that site to update the maps.


Do you have a link?

I am also having trouble finding Chancellorsville in Additional Battles when I start the game. I have gone to Matrix but the only downloads I can find are for the v. 1.50 which I have already downloaded and installed a couple of months ago. Is there somewhere else I am supposed to be looking?

Don't forget to upgrade your version to 1.6 with the patch below :

I have updated to the 1.6 patch for Gettysburg. I just tried the Chancellorsville stand alone but that had an error (probably because I do have the other three already installed). When I start the game it still shows v. 1.5001. Do I have to perhaps uninstall some parts of the game and re-install?

Issue resolved. For some reason I have both a NorbSoftDev/Scourge of War - Gettysburg folder and a Matrix Games/Scourge of War - Gettysburg folder. When I ran the patch and installed Chancellorsville I did it in the Matrix Games/SOW. I went back and installed them both in the NorbSoftDev folder and now both the patch and Chancellorsville are working correctly.
