Patch 2 Progress

Command Ops: Battles From The Bulge takes the highly acclaimed Airborne Assault engine back to the West Front for the crucial engagements during the Ardennes Offensive. Test your command skills in the fiery crucible of Airborne Assault’s “pausable continuous time” uber-realistic game engine. It's up to you to develop the strategy, issue the orders, set the pace, and try to win the laurels of victory in the cold, shadowy Ardennes.
Command Ops: Highway to the Reich brings us to the setting of one of the most epic and controversial battles of World War II: Operation Market-Garden, covering every major engagement along Hell’s Highway, from the surprise capture of Joe’s Bridge by the Irish Guards a week before the offensive to the final battles on “The Island” south of Arnhem.

I spent the day testing the beta installer. The ball is back with Matrix to make some minor changes. Once we get these bedded down it will be released.

I feel like a kid again: just itching to get at the presents under the Christmas tree that I can't open until
Christmas day and the wait is killing me.[;)]

Hi all,

I have some good news and some bad news. First the bad news. We found a crash bug in the Game that must be addressed before the patch #2 can go out. Now for the good news. I just fixed it and am working up a new build as I type. Hopefully this will be in time for Matrix to work up a new installer before the weekend - fingers crossed. But we will need to test it before release to you.

And now for some even better news. I have incorporated a change made by Paul that allows users to select scenarios from sub directories. So now you will be able to store your own scenarios or those from other parties in their own sub directories and access them within the scenario selction window of the Game. Paul has added a new directories control above the scenario list. You simply click on it to change the directory.

It's all part and parcel of the development cycle, it would be silly to expect anything else; although I've been called
worse then silly on more then a few occasions.[;)] Thanks for the heads up, Dave, I appreciate the work.

Getting this patch out is like having a baby. It's time for a "c" section.

As usual with all patches that Panther release it always seems to take awhile from when an installer is sent in to actaully getting them.

1. Dave is a perfectionist me thinks.

2. Good things come to those who wait.
