v1.04 players report please

The team behind the award-winning game Advanced Tactics is back with a new and improved game engine that focuses on the decisive early days of World War II! Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris is the first in an innovative series of operational World War II wargames that also include a strategic element. The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris simulates Germany’s military successes in Poland and France in 1939 and 1940 (including also a hypothetical “Sea Lion” invasion of Great Britain).

v1.04 players report please

Post by Vic »

Hi there,

Any v1.04 public beta players who can report the game is stable?

I just want to make sure. Not getting any bug reports might also be because of different reasons.

Thanks for posting!

best regards,
Vic

I've not hunted for the answer to this so ...

and since its not been said in this thread it won't hurt to repeat it here

I assume you can't resume a 1.03 game with the 1.04 release. Every game I tried to resume a 1.03 game with 1.04, it threw an error during the AI's turn (it actually locked up my 'puter requiring task manager).
But so far games started with 1.04 are OK.

(correct me if I'm wrong ... but regardless I wasn't able to continue on with 1.04 games I started with 1.03)

Which v1.04 version are you using hank?

In the main menu you see a letter after v1.04...

If possible could you email me your bug causing save file to vic@xs4all.nl?

ok thats good. you are using the first version of v1.04 i uploaded. try installing the current v1.04 beta patch. it will show v1.04d in that spot. i think your error with the AI will be gone with that version.

let me know if this solved your problem please.

Hey Vic, thanks for this great game. Bought it, installed 1.04, played through Fall Weiss. The game seems rock solid, I've had it running for days on the laptop, just minimized it, put the laptop to sleep or hibernate, start again and the game just runs error free. And besides being rock solid in terms of reliability, it is also rock solid in terms of serious wargaming. Have been playing wargames since early 80's when the Avalon Hill games ruled the world, have played a good number of PC titles, and must say, DC:WtP is such an excellent piece of work. In my opinion, a must have in every wargaming enthusiast's collection.

Sorry Vic, hadn't played for a while. There is no point in sending you a savefile as I can just fire up sealion and round one launch an airstrike or attack and as soon as I hit ok after the results are displayed I get the above error. A workaround is to press details first before pressing ok. Happens very regularly after first round as well though not all the time and it can be a few turns before it happens again.
I'm running an xp machine.

thats odd. i cannot repeat it.

please tell me the exact view modes your using (zoom in/out and nato counter display mode) and exact hex you attack with air unit.

your help is really appreciated.

also i'd like your email adress. please send it to vic@xs4all.nl so i can send you a newer version to see if that helps.

Vic here is an example: 1st round sealion. I land a division between folkstone and dover, I then do an air attack on dover, I then press ok and get the error. I am using the normal zoom mode with nato counters. I've sent you my email address.
