v1.03 Update Now Available in Members Club

Post by Erik Rutins »

Hi Everyone,

v1.03 has been checked and signed off on by everyone. The official release will likely be Thursday to the general public, but rather than make you wait we've posted it to our Members Club for download now. This is not a beta, it's the official v1.03 release that will be announced later this week.

How to Download from the Members Club:

1. Click on the MEMBERS link in our top navigation bar to get to the Members Club. If you don't already have a Members Club login (this is separate from the Forum login) then you'll have to create one (click on Sign Up Now). Assuming you've created one, login to the Members Club (click on log-in).

2. Once you've logged in, you need to register your copy of John Tiller's Campaign Series. Click on "Register Game" in the left menu of links or "Register You Game" (typo there, whoops) in the central links.

3. Choose John Tiller's Campaign Series from the drop-down list, type in your serial number and register it by clicking on the Register Game button.

4. Now that you've registered, click on My Games in the left menu of links.

5. John Tiller's Campaign Series should show up in that list. You should see a "Private Downloads" link next to it. Click on "Private Downloads" next to John Tiller's Campaign Series in your My Games list.

6. You should now see a link to download the v1.03 udate. Once you've downloaded it, run it to install it in your existing JTCS installation.

A couple of things:

1. READ the updated manual.

2. Take the time to play the new BOOTCAMP scenarios found in East Front.

Thank you guys very much for this massive update!  This is my favorite wargame series (and the ones that got me into "real" PC wargaming) so I'm really glad to see them supported here!

Well crap
I just cracked my CD case and it's empty. Is there any way to be reissued your serial key, or would I have to buy another copy of this game to patch?

Well, *rats*, I'm stuck at work and can't play and also can't read the darn manual during lunch! Wish I had checked the forum last night [:(]. Still, happy that 1.03 is out, I'm needing some motivation to play a wargame.

Speaking as some one who originally was just pleased to be able to play my favourite game on my Vista machine, this patch just takes the game to a whole new dimension. Even a quick look shows just how much hard work has gone into it, no one can deny that. Thanks guys, you all deserve every bit of praise, (and a rest)

First, if the game is still installed, look in its installation folder for a file called "serialreg.txt" that stores your serial number.

Second, if you registered you can retrieve your serial number from our Members Club.

Third, you can go to our store lookup at www.findmyorder.com and retrieve all your past order info including serial numbers and download links.

Regards,

- Erik

Speaking of manuals, does the new one dispense with the watermark backgrounds so it's easier to read when printed? I finally had broken down and bought myself one of those "long reach" staplers so I can bind the printout into a booklet. Or are we going to need a "light" one like we had before? Sadly I won't be able to find out for myself for several more hours, since a 167MB download at work is pushing things a bit [;)]. Must check forum at night, must check forum at night, must check...

The game includes both the standard E-Book version and a "print-friendly" version that has no backgrounds on the pags.

It should be in the Start Menu under the game folder in the Documentation sub-folder.

Hi Erik, there only appears to be the "normal" manual, along with the licence agreement, bootcamp and hints and tips docs etc.
I had a look in the actual manuals folder within the John Tillers Campaing Series folder but again there is only the "normal" manual present ?

Hm - ok, sounds like we missed a file then. I'll check this tomorrow morning and make sure it's fixed in the official release. I'll post it up in the Members Club as well at that point as a separate file.
