GP, Thanks again for your response.

I looked in all the links and it did not show up. Here, for example, is the pic from the My Serial # link.

Tamas, any hints on where I might find the download?

I didn't see TOAW4 in the list. You need to register your game to get the download....GP

Yup. I had the same problem at one time and contacted customer support. Got the whole thing squared away quickly with a positive outcome.

There seems to be something wrong with the download. I have tried downloading this version 4 times and each time it freezes up during the download
at does not continue. I have had 11%, 75%, 36%, and 10% downloaded before it freezes. After each time I restart my computer and tried a fresh download. Also I am registered.

Lobster, Thanks! I'll give that a shot.

GP, thanks again for your quick response. Not to worry, before I started bugging everyone I made sure I was registered etc... I'll drop a note to customer support to see if they can fix whatever the issue is.

Downloaded the new version ok, installed it ok, but now I have only three scenarios (Kasserine, Tannenberg, tutorial). When I go to "folders" I get an error (The system cannot find the path specified). When I clink ok on that, I get "Directory Create" error and the game crashes. When I look in my Docs/My Games/Toaw4, there are no scenarios.

It's not a directory error. You have to create the specified directory....GP

You have to create a directory manually?

Anyway, I fixed it. I copied the "Scenarios" file from the game directory to the "My Docs/My Game file as well as the Graphics Override file. Everything seems to work fine now, but the game feels a little cobbled together now if you ask me.

Indeed. I think I may just uninstall and stop there.

Tamas, Bob

I have updated all fourteen of my scenarios that originally appeared in the initial TOAWIV launch. Unfortunately, these updates did not make it to 4.1.0.20. (Tomas, Bob, et al had bigger fishes to fry.)

How can I update these scenarios in 4.1.0.20? (Destruction of Army Group Center, Operation Overlord 1944, Road to Moscow series, etc. Most minor, a few major)

If I move a folder "Updated Scenarios" into TOAW IV Steam--->Scenarios will it appear just on my PC or will it appear globally?

4.1.0.20 is working great on my PC and Steam.

Thanks again, Tamas, Bob, Steve, Larry, and all other contributors,

I installed this new version, and when I go to the choose language menu and select the spanish language, a message appears saying "unexpected token found at line 3135, column 49" and the game exits to windows.
I examined the file and is corrupted.
This was solved in the previous v4.1.0.4 patch, but again this old issue appears in this new version, making it impossible to play with the Spanish version.

I always back up my TOAW files before doing something akin to what has to be done here. But, everyone should do that, not just me. After reading these posts it causes concern. If someone has to create this folder manually then it begs the question, what has happened to the files that used to be there? I have TOAW on Steam so I didn't bother with this update though i will sometime in the future.

I uninstalled it, as required; and as usual (WAD), the scenario nd other folders were still there. Installed the new packaged; all fine. Even my modified older folders were there. So far, no issues here.

Once the files are created as requested the scenarios are good to go. It's a pain in the A## but it is what it is....GP

For the steam version, does it update automatically to this latest version? Or do I have to uninstall and reinstall the steam version?

I downloaded this game on Steam. I don't remember registering the game, or receiving a serial number. Uninstalled and reinstalled on Steam and got the same directory error. Please help me get this game back. Thanks.
