Start of Allied Turn 3 Planning (12 PM / 6 June 1944

The Allies are ashore and all three Airborne Divisions are close to achieving or achieved their initial objectives.

In the West, the 4th Infantry Division seized the hex just Northwest of Tare Green (24, 19) and was able to eliminate the German ...

Is there a password? If so, please send to dontimian@hotmail.com. Thanks, Don.

Sure . . . Happy to play the Campaign Game and Post an AAR. You choose the side you want play. Don.

Looks to me like you're in Set-up.

For some reason the game lets you move (position) both the Flak Company and the Bridge Demo Unit when you opt to position both (at the same time).

Needless to say, O.K. to place the Bridge Demo Unit in any yellow hex / Not the same for the Flak Company ...

Have posted four Multiplayer challenges. “Overlord Campaign” (one with me playing the Allies and one with me playing the Germans). Plus “Bloody Omaha” (again one with me playing the Americans and one with me playing the Germans). All the best, Don.

Thanks!!! Don.

Apologies . . . Its been a while / Haven't played Matrix WiF for over four years.

I remember there being something like ... "put the mouse cursor over a empty land hex and then hit the space bar" ... Then - whenever you hold the mouse over a hex with multiple units in it - a separate window would ...

No worries / When you’re ready, let me know and I’ll post a challenge . . . You select the scenario and side. Don.

Apologies . . . Should have added I’m in Tucson, Arizona, USA.

Retired, so should not be a problem finding a good time to link-up.


Don.

Yes, they support Multiplayer. But via the Matrix Server. Where are you located? Happy to set-up a Zoom call. Don.

Best workaround for this, is to Fix all Axis units on Turn 1 + No Air, Ground, or Log Assets (on Turn 1). Hope this helps, Don.

P.S. Sent a note to Brian Kelly about your Yellow, Green, and Blue Movement Arrow(s) question. I’m probably wrong, but something’s tells me the Arrows are hard coded.

I don't know, I'm wondering if the developer will abandon it soon... it often happens with games that barely see any activity


battlecommandgames and saintruth are working a Generals Edition of Desert War. Will update the map from 3,200 meters to 2,500 meters per hex (like Stalingrad and ...

There is (will be) no difference between the Steam version, of Overlord (when it’s released), and the Non-Steam version.

Like you, I’m surprised at the lack of traffic. Not sure why. Have not seen any posts hating the game / frustrated with it. Have seen several posts complementing it.


Don.

Good idea / Will ask Brian Kelly to add it to his “Things to Do List.”

For what it’s worth, right now Task #1 (for Brian) is get a Steam version of Overlord up and running.

All the best,


Don.

I looked at KAR scen 1.7z . . . No error statements loading / A quick review showed each unit had a TypePic assigned (100 or greater).

I take it, you posted the file you had fixed using the drop down gui . . . Correct???

Have not yet taken a look at KAR XIII Tuman.7z


Don.

Go to the lower lefthand button (on the screen) and click it.

You should also enable Autosave.

On the main screen, when you open the game, click on “Options” and then check the lower lefthand box “Autosave”.

Hope this helps,


Don.

Send me the .csv file in question + the TypePic problems you’re having (dontimian@hotmail.com). Let me take a look. Don.

P.S. I’ve found it’s often best to use the drop down gui vs. typing in the TypePic file number.

Brian Kelly is busy working on Overlord Steam + his day job.

How ‘bout you and I playing a scenario + writing an AAR? You pick the scenario and sides.

All the best,


Don.

Each player plans their Multiplayer move when their calendar allows. In other words, both players do not need to be on-line (at the same time) in order for one player to plan their next move. Hope I'm making sense . . . Don.

So I take it that your modified CRT code is now working? Don.

For what it’s worth, after chatting with battlecommandgames, I asked Brian Kelly (Saint Ruth) to take a look at your mod’s . . . Thinking it may just be a small error in the modified code.
