Do you have the bugles and flags mod installed and activated alongside Fontenoy? You need it.

You should have Fontenoy above Bugles in the mod list.

If still crashing please post the full crash log text as that narrows things down.

Hopefully it can be solved.

Deactivate EVERY mod except Fontenoy (first) and B&F (second). Your log shows a whole stack of other mods active.

Pans,

Also, check your uniform settings in options. Every once in a while I'll switch periods and forget to change the uniform settings. I'll end up with Yankees under 18th Century regimental colors 'cause I've left the uniform setting on LOW instead of changing it to BEST. Just a thought.

pansarskott, sorry you're having problems,try the solutions offered by Tank,Crikey and Jack,in my game I have Fontenoy well down the list of mods,with B&F above,but it will depend upon your system,as with have already learned.

Tank,I understand what you mean,and if I had set out to make a mod to release,I may well have done several things differently.But this was just something I enjoy doing,so it made sense to use other peoples work,such as Rebs UI,and Gunships drills,when they were already in my game,I could then get the mod working so that I could use it.

I have a Culloden mod that I use, but it's not packed,didn't need to be,so no release.I know this sounds selfish,which is why I thought it only right I let others use what I had done in the same way,or not,it's all done in the name of fun.


Edit...have updated the downloads on the front page to the new flags files.

Thats strange..all other mods are deactivated. I've dubble checked.

I have it on "Best" setting..still I get yanks. I'm running the "standard Fontenoy uniforms mod"

It appears that 'Pansarskott' is running a different OOB than was intended.

The only true logic is that, there is no true logic!

Pan..did you get this solved?

Change your uni settings to low res and see if the new sprites show up.

Activate ONLY these two mods.

The Fontenoy OOB appears here. I use it only in sandbox battles, haven't created any scenarios for it yet.
