New Patch Bug?

Post by Executioner Five »

Playing the Middle East 73 scenario from the Classic TOAW folder as the Israelis...

On Arab Turn 1, the Egyptians don't do anything much. They just move some units around, don't attack across the canal at all. This wasn't happening to me pre-patch...they were attacking normally.

Tried uninstall/reinstall/patch with new patch--same effect.  The Syrians attack normally on Turn 1, but the Egyptians don't do squat.

Started up TOAW II and played that scenario a bit to confirm the difference--on Turn 1 the Egyptians come over the Canal with everything they've got.

The problem is not with the patch. It's with the general PO instructions for the Engineering units that are needed to cross the Suez Canal. This was discussed this in this thread
tm.asp?m=1156241
and I attached a revised scenario file that you should be able to use. It is on post #3. Use that, instead of the scenario that shipped with TOAW III, and you should be good to go.

I guess there will be more reports of scenarios that have some fault in it.
Also designers will revisit and update scenarios taking advantage of TOAW-3 enhancements.
So I think we need an official site to place the updates...soon
And it will be better to keep these updates separate from the myriads of scenarios in existing archives.

Thanks
Erik
