Let's say it in this way....

I have holidays from March 23 to April 1, so there is no problem for me if the patch is published on Friday, March 22nd, but every hour later would hurt me...... :D

Kind regards,

Roland

Don't be in such a hurry to die. They will taste the sweet fruit of battle soon enough.;)

in fact Lost Victories patch1# is about 10 megs and now we have leaved all those files to higher hand.

I think that we have second patch but that don't affect saved games and your campaign. They are corrections to scenarios in the end of the campaign. Correcting those for patch 1 would take about week more, but as I am having busy also in reallife, I can't promise that one week is enough; -this is reason why I would like to have another patch, but that ain't under my hands.

Does it mean that we can't play it thruh with the first patch and have to wait on a second patch?
How far can we play???

At the time we get the patches will we also get the official 7.1 ???
Would like to start again with patches and a new version.

The problems I have been having with LV are looping scenarios, quitting to desktop, waiting to sync (which 7.1b fixed), and a couple of minor bugs. As far as fixing scenarios at the end of the game, thats fine, but I havent been able to get but so far, because I keep getting looped back to a couple of battles sooner. I believe I am on my 7th or so battle- has anyone been able to get past that? I am dying to get more into the "meat" of the campaign:D I am getting mostly decisive victories so far- how is everyone else doing?

You lucky one got decisives, enjoy it now while you can...

and in case that you start again and if second patch is done, you can continue campaign because you can't play this monster in two weeks. If that is how you manage to play thru it, then you have no reallife and should get one :D

I did play to node17 untill updating started. After that just as scenario testing to find that some units really come onboard and no crashes occur. Andyes, few playflow and victory level tests also.

back to work...

new bug

Post by Sgt Popov »

Also during the confirm fire (computers turn) I have found the "y" and "n" keys quit working, but your units can fire by clicking the mouse button:eek: weird! I am on paternity leave right now (new son!) and I am so wanting to do a little mega-campaigning

Congratulations on the addition to your fire team! Are you in the Atlanta area by any chance? Wild Bill and I are on the North side.

Are you sure the CAPS lock is not on? The game will accept on the lower case y & n keys and not Y or N.
Never take counsel of your fears.

I find that the space bar on the kb works for op fire confirmation. Very handy when playing with a hogie in your hand. :D
