Mike Wood,

The scrolling issue appears to only be fixed in the artillery plotting screen. The glider, para, and commando screens still have the scrolling issue.

The patch appears to have an incorrect title of 'General's Edition' patch. It is not a patch for those who have purchased the Mega's, but for the SPWaW Mech.exe

Anyone can goto the Matrix home page and become a member of the Matrix site (seperate from the forums) and then d/l the patch. Perhaps the patch link text needs to be changed to clarify?

I did actually notice this, but assumed it was already addressed in the finished patch, sorry.

All beta patches go in the registered section to prevent them accidentally ending up on the net as official since some sites check our downloads for new updates. This way, they only go into the hands of users who want to help with beta testing rather than ending up installed by someone who thinks this is a new official update after they grab it from another site. Once the beta patch becomes official, it will be available for public download via our FTP server.

Regards,

- Erik

I haven't seen the scrolling issue, either. Scroll delay can be set in the Preferences screen, and after I set mine to 3, it's all gone well.

However, if we missed anything, I'm perfectly willing to take responsibility (as I'm sure Alby and the later-recruited Goblin will agree). (It's a red white & blue conspiracy, I tell ya -- politically, I'm blue, Alby is white, and everyone knows that Goblin can be VERY red [:D][:'(] )

Goblin was only one of us who had the problem so we would have had no way to test it.
We are safe on this one...I hope!![X(]

For you guys who play solo, I'm anxious for some feedback on the enhanced OOB Editor. First -- make a backup copy of all original 8.3 OOBs to a separate folder. This is necessary to avoid anomalies in designed scenarios/campaigns. Then, run ALL of the options for each of the 8.3 OOBs, and then play a generated solo battle/campaign.

Installed new patch with scenario I'm testing: While assaulting through smoke I got next to an enemy forward observer located in the same hex as a Gun Casement. Assaulting squad saw the observer but not the fortification. This seems a bit odd.
Retreat is NOT an option.

Sorry not with you there
My oob editor looks exactly the same. I can't see any button for programmer conventions and i don't know how to run all of the options for each of the oobs.
Is there a way to edit these low morale ratings ?
Is it the actual Spwaw editor program that has been changed or are these options actually in the game. A'm I missing something obvious here

Hmm do we all "free" (no member account) players have to make new account to get this? I tried twice but there came announce that "your email address is already in use"[:(]... Of course it's in use because I write here[;)]. So, do we have to wait until "official" patch will be released?

Are you registering here again sami? You need to register at the main Matrix home page, members area. The sites are seperate, so your forum account does not count there. You are creating an entirely new account. I did so without problem, same email, username, etc.
