hi !

actually since the post i have found a obtained a physical copy of Maximum Football and then when i registered here with matrix it appears the maximum football 2 was made available to me also
-just constantly checking ebay globally eventually yielded a result

ah okay - fortunatel;y i am not using S- Mode - what a horrible awful concept. I hope Microsoft nevers tries to lockdown windows like that in a way that you cant escape from, though with the way the world is going i imagine it will eventually happen

what is the S Mode? i have win11 22h2

i am not sure what overlay software is - my windows 11 is just want came on the new laptop so i dont think its an upgrade.
I do notice that when an upgrade happens some things in my settings get changed, like the keyboard switches to UK instead of the US style i use.
unfortunately there are just ...

i unfortunately had no choice - i cant afford 6 different computers and my existing one died, and of course buying a new gaming laptop means they all have windows11 on them now.

So far though i havent had too serious of issues getting old games running, - however now due to changes by microsoft ...

Hi, i am just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
After a recent windows11 update, now when i try to run a few of the matrix titles such as John Tillers Civil War Battlegrounds, and Napoleonic Wars, and Combat Command - they refuse to start and have an error message that the serial ...

Thanks to the work of the dev behind the wrapper DDrawCompat, Narzoul, Napoleon in Italy now works again for me -

I got a new gaming laptop with windows 11 and was having awful flickering effects with Napoleon in Italy, - but when i put in the DDrawcompat file this fixed the flickering but all the ...

I posted the file here, it is a version of DDrawcompat that the developer has made after i sought help with him to fix issues with Napoleon in Italy.

this fix should work also for For Liberty too i think

DDrawcompat developer Narzoul has made a new version of DDrawcompat that fixes Napoleon in Italy even now for windows11 - i was gettign the broken flickering issues in windows 11 but now with this ddrawcompat file in teh game folder it runs perfectly

never mind it is working now -- i redownloaded to a different location , and now it worked

Hi - i am having reinstalled CNAW on a new computer as my other one died. However when i try to enter the serial number at setup, it tells me it is invalid? how can this be? i directly copied it from the matrix games "my games" library

sounds awesome!

and will one also be able to blow bridges? as i believe there was a bit of that going on in 1813

Oh wow, i am just seeing this Dev log for the first time.
I too was a great fan of the Empire Interactive Wargamer: Napoleon 1813 game, a flawed gem as most of Empire Interactives strategy games were! its tactical game was broken sadly - regularly crashes, but the operational campaign was good and ...

I think i have maybe figured out how the combat modifiers are applied in this old game, not that anyone here probably cares lol
- firstly one works out the fire value of the weapons - based on the casualty table - for muskets it is 3 per every 100 men for range within 100yards for example, and my ...

Thanks! One of my favourite games ever just got better!

I have a question: everywhere they talk about TOP. They mean TOP II, right? Because the other games all use the improved TOP II engine.


yes i should think so, though there is not too much different between TOP1 and TOP2 is there? some ...

HI!
I have been looking at the SSI Battles of Napoleon game recently, and thought that given alot of the tables for stats and modifiers are in teh editor manual, that it might be possible to make a conversion of for tabletop miniatures. - I like the operation point and command control mechanics in ...

<t> I found an interesting book on the weekend: Flying Corps Headquarters 1914-1918 by Maurice Baring. This is the account of the hq by Baring who was a war correspondent then and took up residence in the HQ and gives a detailed account of the activity there, the campaigns involved and writings on ...

<t> American football is not on tv over here in Australia, well not on free tv.I can see highlights on youtube, but i mostly am more interested in playing the old sports sims than i am actually watching current games, lol - though the highlights are interesting at least. I got an old guide to ...

<r> Sorry, i am just going to post here again - just thought I will try again with the query whether anyone has a copy of Maximum Football 2.0 to sell, as I still cannot find it anywhere and for that matter cannot find much online on it overall. I prefer these older Football titles to the newer ones ...
