Haha! Yeah! I was literally losing my mind. I had no problems WHATSOEVER commanding armies of over 75,000 men in the other versions. Imagine my amazement when I started to question whether the buttons were intentionally removed in this version haha.
BTW, I think I figured out the culprit, when I go and try to download the mod, my anti-virus flags a file for some reason and deletes it. Now I'm trying to figure out how to prevent this from happening.

Oddly enough, I'm now having issue with this mod running at all now after re-downloading all of the mods.
No matter what OOB, map..etc. I click start, the map loads up the sprites load up and then within 3 seconds either boom it crashes to desktop or boom it freezes and I have to restart my computer because I can't ctrl + alt delete and stop the process.
Does anyone have any ideas? It's weird that the other files ran perfectly fine (with missing buttons) and these fresh files are now crashing on start.

It sounds as if the sprites mod has a problem. Does your log file show an error?

I'm REALLY ignorant when it comes to computer stuff, so please excuse me.
Where would one find the log file?

It's in My Documents\SOWWL folder. It is named sowwl.log.

Hey MTG!
Ok, so I found two files named both "sowwl" and "SowWL". Both are attached, I hope these are the correct logs!
Can you let me know?

Your game is out of date. Install the latest patch, (1.03), from Matrix and everything should work.

MTG, first off thank you. As a lifelong wargamer this is the closest thing I've ever seen to combat simulation from a leadership perspective.
What an amazing job and amazing dedication to a fantastic game.
DarkRob is the reason I am here. I owned both games before I ever saw his videos but his videos are so enjoyable and helpful I had to come back.
I have an issue. I am trying to get onto the KS forums and have had major issues.
I tried to get in using gehrig38 as my username but have gotten nowhere. Is there any way to just wipe any traces of that application and let me start over?
Really interested in many of the discussions there.
FWIW I used wargames on my laptop to pass the time when I traveled during my playing career. I wish this one would have been around when I played!
Thanks again
Curt
P.S DarkRob thanks again!
