i have the 1.02B patch installed, and i can see the difference with the fix attached here are the comma's between the numbers.
so the removal of the commas is what made the actual 'fix'?

It seems to me I remember the Talonsoft version having a similar bug.  It didnt matter if I played the German or Russian, but in all 3 Barbarossa campaigns starting somewhere around Jan 42...give or take a week or so...all Rusian rifle platoons would arrive or start at 1sp.  Russian smg platoons were un affected as were russian guards...only Russian rifle platoons.  I dont know if talonsoft ever fixed that particular bug.  This was in EF2 Gold.

No, Borst, that is a different problem and has been corrected with the new Campaign OOB's.

LOL...well I wasnt sure, it sounded similar to me as I coud never add replacements to those platoons as the Russian commander.

[align=left][font="times new roman"]Hi Jason
I beginning a dcg in EF central front, and i'm in 10/41 now and no reinforcement coming, so i found thid thread and the file to DL.
Do you think i can modify the file to have a big reinforcement at this time ? if yes do i have to mod the 2 replacement file ? if it's work do i've to paste the unmodified file after my reinfs coming?
Thanks a lot to give a rebirth for this super game, perhaps the wargame i've most play inthe last 10 years.

Yes, yes you can!

If you wish to modify the Soviets, edit the Replacements0.dat; if you wish to modify the Germans, edit the Replacements1.dat

You do not have to edit both.

Jason,
in the replacement file there are 2 row of number, so if i want 25 steps replacement i have to make : 411007 25 25 .
I'm right ?
