New v1.04.07 Public Beta Now Available!

Post by MaximKI »

There's a new public beta update installer. It is available to download from the store/My Page download areas.

It is also available from the following Download Link: HERE

If you prefer to use Steam, then you will need to opt into the changes by selecting the beta branch from the games Properties menu, listed as "beta - Open Beta". You can opt out at any time.

V1.04.07 – 25th April, 2025
New Features and Rule Changes
• Escort range has been increased. It is now the same as combat range.
• Operational losses for transports have been decreased.
• Added Relocate Unit button to Air HQ unit detail window.
• Improved code dealing with experience of ground elements when they receive replacements into empty equipment slots. The result is slightly higher net experience for the first replacements into a slot.
• Editor – In the new editor, added rollover with entry date for ground unit delay and air unit transfers. Work in process on the event portion of the new editor.
• Updated the Living Manual.pdf file in the \Manuals folder. This is up to date with changes through game version 1.04.07.

Bug Fixes and AI Improvements
• Very short-range strikes (with no waypoints) would incorrectly act as if they were executing 2 strikes. Fixed.
• Units in Stavka are renaming to divisions and converting to on map units, and when reinforcements arrive, it leaves 4 units in the hex and none can move off the hex. Fixed.

Data and Scenario Changes
• Map changes (hex.dat, hexart.dat, maptext.dat)
o Road added
West of Stalingrad: Kalach -> Kletskaya -> Serafimovich -> Bokovskaya -> Koschary
NW of Lvov: Zamosc -> Hostynne -> Hrubieszow

After I installed the new 1.04.07 beta the game opened up to 1.04.03 version. The dates on the scenarios are also December 2024. I think you have the wrong link. I used Mypage.

First of all, thank you very much for the constant improvements to this excellent strategy game. It's great.
One question:
When I load a saved game from v1.04.05 after updating to v1.04.07, the new roads and airfields aren't visible.
When I start a new scenario, everything works.
In both cases, the new version number is displayed.

Thanks.

Data changes only appear in new games. The original data the game was started with is embedded in savegames.

I'm trying to run that and it says I don't have WitE2 installed.... even though I am unzipping it right into the steam folder with WitE2. I'm on Steam, not sure what you meant by changing game properties. Thanks.

You can't install this file on Steam as its only for the Matrixgames version. In Steam, WitE2 game properties, there's a Beta section where you have to enable the Beta version.
