This Patch will correct the following issues:

Rising Sun:

INSTRUCTIONS:
It seems like a lot, but it is very straight forward and simple.

Ensure that you have the 1.02 UPDATE installed by using the UPDATE button on your MCS menu, or by going to the following link:

Once that is done create a NEW FOLDER

Three folders will appear; East Front, West Front and Rising Sun.

Go into the East Front folder
Press CTRL + A (This selects all of the files)
Press CTRL + C (This will copy the files)

Browse to your Campaign Series installation
Click on the East Front folder
Press CTRL + V (This will paste the copied files into the East Front folder)
Press YES or YES TO ALL to replace existing files


Go into the West Front folder
Press CTRL + A (This selects all of the files)
Press CTRL + C (This will copy the files)

That is all!

Good luck!

Hi Jason,

I had sent you a personal email earlier regarding updates to the unitext's of several WF units along with some new BMP images I created along with George Smithson some time back. We are allready using some of the new stuff in the Matrix edition that I worked on. Are you intersted in what I have here. I believe it would be quite helpful in cleaning up some stuff and providing a more finished look to the game. [:)] [:)]

Please help. I've re-installed Campaign Series into a new Vista 32bit pc. I've tried to install the 1.02B patch several times. I have patched to 1.02. I've even dragged each 1.02B files into the CS folders (EF, WS, & RS). Nothing seems to work.

Jason:
I've successfully patched the game to 1.02. I wish to patch the game to 1.02B. I've installed all the files from the 1.02B patch into their respective folders (ie WF,EF, & RS). The EF exe application does not write over the old exe, therefore even though I've copied all the 1.02B files into the EF folder, when I run the game, runs as 1.02 and not 1.02B.

There won't be any indication of running 1.02B (it does not say in the ABOUT area), apart from knowing you copied over the zipped files.

When I look at the verson during the game is says 1.02. When the screen is scrolled I get white flashes, no hard attack values.

Does patch 1.02B correct the problems associated with Vista? ie - white flashing when scrolling and hard attack strenght problems.

Thanks,

1.02 should, which needs to be installed first.

1.02B corrects a few order of battle issues.
