What version and add-ons?

Achtung Panzer:Operation Star is an Eastern Front wargame with solid graphics and sprawling battlefields that really emphasize the scope of WWII tank combat. The gameplay is a remarkably realistic turn-based and real-time operational/tactical hybrid wargame that continues the series begun by the acclaimed Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943.

What version and add-ons?

Post by Shadrach »

It is quite unclear what version of the game Matrix has and what add-ons are included [&:]

I bought the game from Gamersgate a while back and according to the "game updater" I am at version 3.02 with the add-ons "Sokolovo 1943" and "Blau 1942".

Judging from the matrix screenshots, since the Tiger and the Matilda is there, at least Sokolovo is included in the Matrix version, but would like some info on this from Matrix please?

Is the summer add-on included?

Patching of this game is one of the worst processes I've encountered, with often links going to russian forums, obscure downloads and badly documented, so hopefully Matrix can sort something out in this regard [:)]

Hi Stian,

I agree that the patch process is counter-intuitive, to the point that we did not want to have our customers go through that. For that reason, our release already includes all the released updates. You don't need to update the game at all once you download it from us and we'll plan to make future updates available through our usual update methods, which are much more user-friendly. It's v577 and the only thing missing is the additional DLCs, which we will make available in the future through our store and our own installers.

Regards,

- Erik

The Graviteam version of the patch worked for me, including the installation of the add-ons, although it seemed like a minor miracle at the time. [;)] The Matrix version will be much smoother, I am sure.

Heck, Team Assault BoF, took forever with all the DirectX and other misc junk it needed to install. But it worked, so that's a credit to all.
