Reb in your picture you show a Ft Fisher Redux mod. Is that an OOB mod and a Map or just one or the other? either way can you post a link to it?jlan5031...the Pea Ridge Redux folder is located below the B&FVIII folder, and I don't know how to place the B&F folder below the Redux.
Your quoted message above explains the issues you're having. When you open the game the first screen you see is the Main Screen, it contains the Modifications Screen where you enable or disable and prioritize the mods available in your Mods folder. You obviously are aware of how to enable mods but missed the concept of prioritization. This is done by selecting the mod name and moving it up or down with the two priority buttons positioned in the lower left of the Modifications screen. Mouseover the buttons to see their function as demonstrated below.
Also, as seen below, enable only the mods you need to play a specific battle as many mods conflict with each other and can easily cause crashes, just as you have experienced with this report. Your log file has numerous errors caused by conflicts. You can have more mods enabled than I show below but you must enable them one at a time for new battle or map mods to determine which ones cause conflicts...It's a gradual learning process. Check your log file as you add mods to new downloads, it'll usually tell you what's compatible to what.

Bugles & Flags XIX
Version XIX v19.1 (April 1, 2020)
- Fixed visual issues with 'Fatigue Alert' toolbar graphics
Along with the issues that were reported a while back, I also found some other related issues that needed to be addressed, and were.
- Added the unitmodel.csv file to include TC2M sprites so the 'TC2M SOW Infantry Mod' shows the 'firing sprites' during their 'withdraw' and 'advance' engagement sequences
This upgrade proved problematic and is removed with the next update, version 19.2
- Other misc. edits and fixes to address minor issues and improve gameplay
Many of the changes came after changes with the SR1 toolbar (gui) were made. So, the SR1 gui evolved, but the B&F gui didn't. Now it has with this update.
Just replaced the March 27th update with this April 1st release, due to a small but critical issue that couldn't be ignored. For obvious reasons, these recent updates were delayed with the new website transition. Hope everyone's figuring out the new format, I'm doing the same. It's still a WIP, with improvements hopefully coming soon.
In the meantime, everyone stay well by staying away from people the best you can. Staying home and playing SOW games can actually be a life saver, in this Brave New World of survival by solitude.

150th-GB01-July1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army)

- Reassignment of the Pennsylvania Regimental Flag. PA infantry units will now carry their state regimental flag and their distinctive US national flag with the PA state seal in the canton.
- Adjustments to the toolbar text to better align with the portraits area. This was done primarily to improve text placement on the Western themed toolbar with the soon to be released Red River Campaign 1864 map and battle pack. Prioritized below B&F, the RRC mod will be completely compatible.
- Additional minor gameplay improvements
Bugles and Flags XII - July 1st 2013
Patch 1.61 compliant
Portraits updated through the latest expansion, Brandy Station
New Toolbar Additions
Square formations are now added to the infantry and dismounted cavalry (Dcav) regimental level toolbars. This formation has been toned down from the Nap version of -250 to -150 (MeleeMod column, Drills), as ACW cavalry used pistols and also shot carbines from horseback at close range, so I surmise that breaking a square while remaining in the saddle would have been much less difficult in that era. Still, this formation will prove the best for resisting not only cavalry charges, but infantry charges as well. Most assuredly, a vital tool in the B&F arsenal.
All Rebel and Union Regimental Flags re-designed and in HD (High Detail).
All CS Flags in CV Extras are now represented in HD.
When B&F XII is positioned and enabled below CV Extras, all Rebel flags and all Union Regimental Flags will be replaced in HD.
Four additional regimental Union flags added - Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin and Minnesota, and are included in all B&F VII OOBs that represent them...20 total.
Some new and re-released Rebel cavalry flags are now available to add to the latest release, Brandy Station.
Redesigned and new to B&F is the 75th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment state/regimental flag. Regarded as the state flag at the time, this representative flag (styled as the National Flag and denoting the specific regiment, honors, with the Pennsylvania state seal in the canton), was carried along side the National flag, and an additional third flag, called the regimental flag was sometimes included. Pennsylvania was the only state in the Union that followed this protocol of displaying three primary flags (since the SOW engine can display only two, the third optional regimental flag is excluded).
Pennsylvania battery commanders will retain the state seal flag from previous versions.
150th-GB01-July1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army)
New scenario added commemorating the 150th Gettysburg Anniversary. It's revised from the 3 Day scenario series with new scripting (Yanks are tougher), plus historic objectives are included now. In addition it's not SR10, it ran fine for me with the stock ratio, usually 10 FPS and better throughout the 150 minute length. This is the first of a new carryover scenario series, hopefully coming soon through this thread, so practice and score big to improve your odds of winning Gettysburg for the South, YaHoooo!
Bugles and Flags XI - 13 February 2013
Patch 1.6 (coming soon) compliant
Portraits updated for next expansion due out early this year
New Toolbar Additions - detailed descriptions on pages 4 and 5 of this thread:
Revised Infantry Brigade Assault Formations
Artillery Brigade Force Move Command
Withdraw, JustRun -- split button
All Rebel and Union Regimental Flags re-designed and in HD (High Detail).
All Union Flags are now represented in the Bugles and Flags style.
When B&F XI is placed below CV Extras, many of the CV flags will be replaced in HD.
Splash Screens revised and updated to reflect new flag format.
Bugles and Flags v10 - 21 August 2012
Updated to be compatible with patch 1.5, including commander portraits for the next expansion.
Bugle calls are now significantly muted for more ambient effects.
Edited hold form formations narrowing the distance between rows.
New Division Assault Formations.
Smaller map icons for better alignment clarity.
Numerous fixes and minor upgrades.
Splash screens now represent all expansions.
Bugles and Flags v09 - 21 March 2012
Complete redesign of all flags. The flying carpets are replaced with newer, more cloth-like models. Also, performance should be much improved by condensing the graphics files from about 30 down to 4...kinda like texture packing.
Toolbar - New upper level commands for moving troops, all officers now can order formations and move entire Corps and Armies.
Completely compatible with patch 1.4 to 1.5...
Previous Post - September 2011
v08 Additions:
Default Keyboard layout added to Menu Options.
The command justrun, Ajustrun is available to move engaged units in and out of action.
New division level formations featuring division lines made up of brigade lines, rather than brigade double lines.
Detach and Guard command added to infantry toolbars.
Upgraded, more realistic courier message screen.
Edited unitattributes file to add more visibility options to be used with night to day designs.
Miscellaneous toolbar adjustments for more efficient play and convenience.
Scenarios
PC08-July3-Pipe Creek - Rebel Breakthrough (U-Army)
Originally designed for the PC map pack, PC06, 'Rebel Breakthrough' was scraped for not following the storyline of afternoon battles and CSA arrival times. Planned on more variants, but this one variant should be a fun challenge for most folks. With the design of this scenario, I wanted to give the Yankee folks some solid offensive action, since all the Union scenarios within the PC pack are defensive in nature.
Depending on time and feedback requests, I may design a Rebel version of this scenario...just ask.
BTW, you must have the PC map pack to play this scenario as designed.
This set of scenarios is the same as the release of 'Gettysburg 3Days Carryover', but with DRF included.
GB3D1-July1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D2-July2-Gettysburg Day Two (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D2B-July2-Gb Day2 - Wolf Hill Line (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D3-July3-Gettysburg Day Three (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D3B-July3-Gb Day3 - Wolf Hill Line (C-Army) SR10 DRF

Some new and re-released Rebel cavalry flags are now available to add to the latest release, Brandy Station.
Redesigned and new to B&F is the 75th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment state/regimental flag. Regarded as the state flag at the time, this representative flag (styled as the National Flag and denoting the specific regiment, honors, with the Pennsylvania state seal in the canton), was carried along side the National flag, and an additional third flag, called the regimental flag was sometimes included. Pennsylvania was the only state in the Union that followed this protocol of displaying three primary flags (since the SOW engine can display only two, the third optional regimental flag is excluded).
Pennsylvania battery commanders will retain the state seal flag from previous versions.
150th-GB01-July1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army)
New scenario added commemorating the 150th Gettysburg Anniversary. It's revised from the 3 Day scenario series with new scripting (Yanks are tougher), plus historic objectives are included now. In addition it's not SR10, it ran fine for me with the stock ratio, usually 10 FPS and better throughout the 150 minute length. This is the first of a new carryover scenario series, hopefully coming soon through this thread, so practice and score big to improve your odds of winning Gettysburg for the South, YaHoooo!

Scenarios
PC08-July3-Pipe Creek - Rebel Breakthrough (U-Army)
Originally designed for the PC map pack, PC06, 'Rebel Breakthrough' was scraped for not following the storyline of afternoon battles and CSA arrival times. Planned on more variants, but this one variant should be a fun challenge for most folks. With the design of this scenario, I wanted to give the Yankee folks some solid offensive action, since all the Union scenarios within the PC pack are defensive in nature.
Depending on time and feedback requests, I may design a Rebel version of this scenario...just ask.
BTW, you must have the PC map pack to play this scenario as designed.
This set of scenarios is the same as the release of 'Gettysburg 3Days Carryover', but with DRF included.
GB3D1-July1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D2-July2-Gettysburg Day Two (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D2B-July2-Gb Day2 - Wolf Hill Line (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D3-July3-Gettysburg Day Three (C-Army) SR10 DRF
GB3D3B-July3-Gb Day3 - Wolf Hill Line (C-Army) SR10 DRF

Administrative fix only - Edited the main post to reflect name change to XIX
Can't believe I missed this name change with the last upgrade back in April...I'll just blame it on Covid Fog :sick:
Just to be clear, this is not an update or upgrade, so no need to re-download if you have the April 3rd (last) update.

This is not an update, it's just a renaming of seven B&F scenarios so they don't cause confusion with recently released 'True Ground SR1' scenarios, specifically, the one's that begin with GB3. So, to make the alphabetical listing in 'User Scenarios' clearer, the seven scenarios that begin with GB3 will include an underscore. For example, the first B&F scenario will be renamed from this, 'GB3D1-July 1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army)', to this, 'GB_3D1-July 1-Gettysburg Day One (C-Army)', with the same renaming process applied to the remaining six.
Figured the best way for folks to make this change was to just replace the whole 'Scenarios' folder since most of these seven scenarios are carryovers and the carryover name is listed in the scenario.ini file, and also must be renamed for the carryover to function as designed.
Anyway, download and replace them if you want, it won't affect the scenarios at all either way, it just makes the scenario listing in 'User Scenarios' clearer. Plus, if I decide to continue to design some GB4 (GB Day 4) TG scenarios, it will keep all the TG SR1 scenarios together.
Unzip and copy into the 'C:\Matrix Games\Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Mods\Bugles & Flags XIX' folder...Overwrite the previous Scenarios folder:

Greetings RebBugler, hope all is well.
Question please, your last update states:
"XIX Update, version 19.2, April 3, 2020
- Eliminated the 'TC2M SOW Infantry Mod' adaptations, as they caused new found issues, and CTD."
I have the TC2M SOW infantry mod (v2.0) activated. (I am not using SR1 mods at present). Should I de-activate the mod, or are the 19.2 notes referring to internal B&F adjustments only?
cheers Volt

As you surmise, the 'TC2M SOW infantry mod' was not edited, the recalled FIX was only "internal B&F adjustments". So, treat the 'TC2M SOW infantry mod' the same as previously prescribed, both with SR1 mods activated or not.Greetings RebBugler, hope all is well.

As long as you have the latest B&F update installed, version 19.2, April 3, 2020, you should experience no issues and have the most recent upgrade. To check out your update status, start game and go to Modifications. Click on B&F to highlight its name and the Intro displayed on the right includes the update status.
Thanks for the report, hopefully this response clears things up for you and others that sometime find my utterances on the vague side.
Frankly, it's great to have any feedback on our aging and ailing forum, this place is getting lonely, especially since new members can't post and must resort to our Matrix site. For me, this site feels more personal, despite its issues, whereas the Matrix site feels commercial.
