Grants Overland Campaign of 1864

This is where our experts try to teach you the very flexible modding system for our previous release - SOW Gettysburg and its add-ons. It's powerful, but dangerous. Post your tips and your questions.

Too many files in the mix for me to know where to begin.
Reb - Whats new in the great State of Arkansas!

Wouldn't the problem be confined to either of these two files, "unitglobal, or unitmodel" - since they are the only files that calls the "Flag-Bearer" ?

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

Aside from the SOW Gettysburg base, with all the updates, I have the Chancellorsville expansion installed. I had the Chickamauga and "Chancellorsville Extras" enabled the first go 'round, but have since disabled them and all other mods except the Overland one with the same result: regimental commanders 3 times larger than all other figures. I have also checked other game play options and other OOBs, this issue only pops up with the Overland OOBs.

Well I have run this in my clean test version of SOWG with the above set up and not had the same issue it could be the Atlanta OOB pack causing a conflict as this is quite old now and due an update but looks like this isn't activated anyway.... The mods been downloaded now around 200 times anyone else seen this issue guys?

As a quick fix please find the below link this should remove the sprite causing the "giant effect"

1/ Open your copy of SOWG
2/ Click on Mods
3/ Open The Overland Campaign 1864 -OOB Pack
4/ Open Logistics
5/ Drop in the below file in - It will ask if you want to overwrite existing file click yes

http://www.mediafire.com/file/17v3vww30 ... global.csv

If the problem persists please let me know....Anyone else having the same issue please do the same as above this error may be due to the officer sprites not being packed (I don't have a packing tool to do this) I plan to set some time aside and redo my OOB packs with the latest versions.

Thankyou for you comments RebBugler and Davinci there are a lot of mods out there now so unfortunately clashes are inevitable we could probably do with a Master mod like the older TC2M had.
