Few minor problems

Frank Hunter's Campaigns on the Danube is an operational study of the campaigns along the Danube in 1805 and 1809. Campaigns on the Danube's system focuses on trying to present the player with the same sort of decisions placed on their historical counterparts; how to feed an army and move that army according to a plan, all the while trying to fight a campaign. There is also an option to allow players to play out the battles with miniatures and input the results.

Few minor problems

Post by RCHarmon »

I was wondering if there are some solutions that others player have before I post a help desk ticket.

I am able to run the game on Vista (I have a xp computer also if I needed) and the 2.22 patch works fine for me.

Combat resolution box gets cut off at the top. If I get a message that a town was captured that is a small message and I see the whole message. If it is a combat message I lose the first three lines so I never knew who sent the message. Most of the time I can figure it out. Not a big issue, but it would be nice to see the whole message.

I cannot access the bottom of the map. The resolution is good I just cannot "see" the bottom row of the map. This is only a problem in the Crisis on the Danube Scenario" as the three reinforcing corps MacDonald etc, I cannot "click" on and therefor I cannot give any orders to them.

Also on the Crisis on the Danube scenario the French Guards are missing. I came across a thread on the forum where Frank said he will email anyone who wanted the scenario with the correct oob (tm.asp?m=1121906). Does anyone have this file or should I email Frank Hunter?

The campaign option doesn't work. Is the campaign option for only the first 1805 scenario or does it work with all the scenarios?

Miniatures option doesn't work.

I know this is an old game, but they are still selling it. They are selling it at $20 which would infer proper support.

I do really like the game.

Having received a pm, I am concluding that Vista isn't running the game properly. I have changed the resolution around and cannot get that last bottom row to come into view. I will fire the game up on my xp machine and go from there.
