Bug - cannot deploy german units.

Post by Greyhunterlp »

Hi, I've hit a problem where the deploy button for Germany won't let me put down any new units.

Any idea what could be causing this?

What is your patch level by the way?

I just did a build test and you seem to have the 1.00.02.00 version. Click the update on the launcher.

Do you still have a beta version previously?

The games used to be in the games folder WarPlan\SavedGames

Now it has moved to C:\Users\"your user name"\Documents\My Games\WarPlan\SavedGames

Move the saved games to that folder.

Hi, as I try to update I get a FTP error.
Any direct link to a direct download?

Do you have a VPN or some super firewall?

Yup, Windows Firewall Control.
What’s the name of the executable I should give permission to connect?

UPDATE: I temporarily disabled Windows Firewall Control and I tried again, but nothing changed.

I would suggest opening up task manager when the error box occurs and look for the associated program in memory. I believe it has the exact name in there.

If not right click and run the WarPlan launcher as admin.

I tried both ways, no luck with that.
I even disabled Malware Doctor - same result again.
Right now I'm still stuck with the not working 1.00.2.
Should I try with a clean install?

P.S.: I just opened a ticket. I'm pretty sure it's not a Warplan issue, but a Matrix one.

At last, I managed to download it, but I had to use Filezilla to reach the Matrix FTP Server.
