<r> I viewed the Scourge of War Brandy Station product page, from the USA, and it's showing me everything in English but the price is in ILS (Israeli Sheqels.) <br/>

<r> Yes it is, there are links on several sites although I couldn't find one on Matrix own site.<br/>

Just a bump so no passers-by get the impression Scourge of War multiplayer is inactive because this forum is idle.

We're still playing battles every day at www.sowmp.com.

<t> I have a laptop with an I5 2500 @ 2.5ghz, 8GB ram, and the HD Graphics 3000. <br/>
<br/>
SOW will run, but not very well. I am not sure how much of the problem is the processor vs the graphics, but I think both are the limiting factor at different times. SOW only uses one processor thread. It ...

I started a multiplayer campaign using v5.60.51, before I knew about this beta patch.

Does anyone know if it's savegame compatible? Or has anyone tried migrating a save to the beta, and continuing on?

To resupply, move your regiment right next to the wagon. The resupply button is far less reliable than just moving the wagon and regiment together.

It is easy to find MP players for this: www.sowmp.com.

There are MP games every day. Generally you won't find anyone waiting in the MP lobby, they'll be on Teamspeak. Waiting in the lobby just isn't practical.

TC2M units are only about 8% higher res than SOW. But they used more lighting for the renders which is mainly why they look sharper.

<r> Sorry I replied to phoenix's post but it got lost somehow. <br/>
<br/>
To use waypoints, <B><s>[b]</s>hold <e>[/b]</e></B>CTRL and give a sequence of double-click movement orders. Then the regiment will follow this sequence exactly, and if each segment is unblocked by other units, they'll not ...

<t> Right, the pathing is fine. By default they don't allow regiments to march through each other, that's all it is. This gets complicated so people who don't understand get really frustrated.<br/>
<br/>
However, using waypoints, players can get regiments to go exactly where they want. What we ...

<t> I installed it on a computer that had had gettysburg installed some time in the past, but no gettysburg files were left. <br/>

It installed just the chancellorsville content -- so I guess that if you have any gettysburg registry entries still, it will not install chancellorsville as a ...

<t> It doesn't implement itself.<br/>

Most MP games are between one and two hours long. Saving a larger MP game would be pointless often, since next time you play, there would be a different group of people available. <br/>

If you play a two player long scenario, yeah it would be ...

You can save during a multiplayer game, and then load the savegame in singleplayer later.

But you can't launch a multiplayer game using a saved game.

<r> Some that come to mind:<br/>
<br/>
1. Multiplayer with two to twenty players at once. (more is possible, <LINK link="http://www.sowmp.com/gcm/battles/battle/7686"><s>[link=http://www.sowmp.com/gcm/battles/battle/7686]</s>22<e>[/link]</e></LINK> is highest we've seen yet)<br/>
2. Bigger maps ...

I don't think there is an FOV setting. You'll probably need to just use one monitor.

Yes, there is no cavalry. I don't care for cavalry in the game, which is why I never added it to my MP mod -- and the singleplayer version is basically a copy of the MP version.
