Game won't run. Keeps crashing. Hopefully we won't get any posts here, but if we do, we'll try to help you out. You can also post any bugs that you find here. IMPORTANT: Don't post mod related problems here!

Game Play Advice Needed
I have tried to participate in both of these battles but can't give any movement orders, can't send any courier messages and can't take command. Are these two battles just for watching?

Do other Antietam scenarios work OK?

Also, Where am I supposed to download the lateset patch, 1.5. Just bought Chancellorsville at Matrix and can't activate it with the code they sent me. Get a message stating the registration server is down or could not activate with the key they sent.

These two are very taxing on computer resources, quite possibly your machine is struggling. Go into options and change the sprite ratio to 10. This will lower the number of sprites displayed. Game will still play the same, the regiments will just look smaller although the number of troops represented will be the same.

You need to download the 1.5 patch from Matrix Games here:Matrix 1.5 Patch Page Install this patch first and then try the installer again.

My system specs are Core i7 quad 3GHz with 16Gb of ram and an Nvidia GeForce 570. My system should be able to handle it.
