<t> Thanks btd.... so it just gets a tad more complicated [8|]. Do I need to rejoin this units before I force them onto a transport(e.g. the canadians). Or it does not really matter and I can ship of the part of a unit anyway? <br/>
Or is it anyway the better idea just to ship off US boys towards ...

<r> Thanks gents. Still trying around in my first turn(actually 2nd considering I could not do anything before turn 1), I really had the impression I had some kind of a basic plan but then I got just surprised by the size of that game. Still doing West Coast, found something , tried to figure out in ...

<t> Thanks! I thought I had an rough idea but right now I am studying even the different transport types and for what I have to use them. <br/>
<br/>
Honestly, the different types confuse me a bit.<br/>
<br/>

AS Aux Submarine Tender ---I guess I can supply subs with that ...

<t> Nicely patched up to beta. Actually it was written far more complicated as it really is - simple unzip, hit the .exe which creates new Folder, creates new beta desktop icon, just copied my switch line from the original icon to this one, done! Thank you very much!<br/>
<br/>
Now reading my way ...

ORIGINAL: Yaab

The real question is how do I finish this game?

By having a lot of time to spare? [:D]

Nice and easy. Thank you! Will do so.

<t> I see.And I can imagine. Must be a bit annoying that every newby is coming with the same questions [:D] , thanks for the patience.<br/>
<br/>
Next "problem" - i found the beta patch from 2016, even I understood what was written in the instructions I still don't get it entirely(and I just ...

<t> Yep. Did already. The auto updater confused me a bit to be honest. Not used anymore to do manual updates(using Steam for a long time now which makes updating easy). Did that "pre-steam" lots of years ago.<br/>
<br/>
Anyway - game is now on last full patch(seems there is a beta patch, do not ...

According support not. Their explanation is that, by only providing the base game everyone can choose which patch they may use. Manual patching is always required.

<t> Indeed.<br/>
<br/>
Tried -SingleCpuStart and as well -SingleCpuOrders(one at a time) but they did not improve performance at all), tried as well -cpu8(as my i7 has 8 cores), nothing.<br/>
<br/>
-dd_sw actually improved performance, bt only IF I use windowed mode. If I go full screen it ...

<t> Thank you very much, actually my own blindness was the cause - I linked the wrong ([8|]) .exe file to the desktop.<br/>
<br/>
I am the only one that cannot play it full screen? Had to set it to windowed mode(see below) to have smooth movement on the map and proper response if pushing a button ...

<t> -Lecivius<br/>
<br/>
My god, this was it. I actually used the wrong .exe file(as they look similar I did not scroll down all the way in the Matrix Folder).<br/>
Now it is possible to modify.<br/>
<br/>
Then I had a further issue with no response in game. More or less all the time I used it ...

<t> -btd64 - reboot? No? How? [:)]<br/>
<br/>
-MakeeLearn Yes, at first I did copy them to be honest(was reading the "WhatsNew.pdf"). After reading the "switch" thread I typed it in by myself, first resolution only to see if that is working. Yes, always started a game to see if there is any ...

<t> Yes, tried all. No luck. In my other thread(how do I start) someone said that I have an not updated version(mine is from 2009), but the autoupdater does not work(comes always back with an error message and tells me to contact Matrix support...).<br/>
<br/>
No answer from them yet.<br/>
<br ...

<t> No luck. Did as you said, reboot, nothing. De-install. Re-Install. Update - nothing. Thanks for your help btd64! Appreciated.<br/>
<br/>
This nervs. Contacting support now. Let's see what they say. But leaving a 9 year old game unpatched on the servers for download is actually a bit of a ...

Ouch. I thought I got the last game for this price. Updater does not work(tells me to contact Matrix games)..... just great.

Seems auto update does not work. Which version do I need and where do I get it from. Or do I need to contact support?

<t> Ok. I went into the MAtrix folder, made a new shortcut to the exe file. Pulled it on desktop. Tried, it starts the game.<br/>
<br/>
Then, tried to right click, last lane, add the switches(i tried just to change resolution to verify) - nothing. Still the same. I used 2 different lines, (both ...

<t> Thanks Kull. Well, I tried various things. Nothing really does anything. <br/>
<br/>
I modified the shortcut on the desktop - nothing.<br/>
<br/>
I modified the quick start button in the pull down menu. Nothing.<br/>
<br/>
It is the Original game downloaded from the matrix games website ...

<t> Yes, tried that already. Did not work(posted over there), really not getting where I should copy in this line. It seems it is not directly from the desktop icon. Don't have another way to start the game except going into the matrix folder, searching for the exe file and doubleclick it. Do I need ...

<t> Hello, I would need some help setting up this "switches". Tried to add -cpu3 -dd_sw -fixART -SingleCpuOrders -deepColor -px1920 -py1080 but it did not do anything.(tried others as well)<br/>
<br/>
Now, I read here that I do not have to modify the desktop icon to do so - which one would be the ...
