Latest patch?

Post by gbs »

Sorry but where can I find the latest patch. The Matrix members page has 1.50. Is that the latest patch?

I get the felling that Gettysburg etc. has gone to the back burner and rightly so. I understand and I guess the game is as it is and what it will be. I am one who loves the history of the Civil War and I'm a little sad about that.

Here is the link for 1.61

Gettysburg, Pipe Creek, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Brandy Station, etc. is a pretty decent representation of the Civil War, don't you think?

Born,

Good to see (Ha-Ha) you again. Question on the latest patch - didn't I read somewhere the latest patch would contain revisions of the horses to the newer standard of, say, the NapMod? I could be on drugs though.

To be perfectly honest, Jack, I don't remember, but I'm sure someone else can answer that for you.

In patch 1.5, or maybe it was 1.6, the cavalry was made a lot less "skittish". They stay and fight longer, and are far less likely to retreat under fire. It was a necessary change for Brandy Station.

LP,

THAT I actually remember. Must have been some hallucination about changing the Horses themselves. Thanks.

Brandy Station did introduce some horse-graphic improvements and I was assured that these would be retrospective for all previous game versions. There is nothing else as far as I know although I think Reb Bugler did some mods for Confederate horses. Big brown "somethings" ???

See my post around mid-june last year and replies to it.
