Jason,

Most appreciated.

Hi Jason,

I had sent you a personal email earlier regarding updates to the unitext's of several WF units along with some new BMP images I created along with George Smithson some time back. We are allready using some of the new stuff in the Matrix edition that I worked on. Are you intersted in what I have here. I believe it would be quite helpful in cleaning up some stuff and providing a more finished look to the game. [:)] [:)]

Yes, of course. Any help would be appreciated!

Jason Petho

Jason,

I just emailed you the issues ... Did you recieve ?

Eric

I did, thank you.

Sent you my email as well.

Jason Petho

Jason, don't know if this was suppose to be addressed in this patch but regarding Dutch forces:

West Front
Battle of the Outposts

Problems with the F2 info screen.

The following Dutch units have no info or pic.:
Grenadier platoons
All officers
All HQ's

The following Dutch units have a pic but no info:
MG Platoon
Wagon
57mm Inf. Gun
47mm AT Gun
81mm Mortar

All of these issues remain unchanged.

They will be addressed in the 1.03 Update.

Thanks!

[edit: post belonged elsewhere, disregard]

Please help. I've re-installed Campaign Series into a new Vista 32bit pc. I've tried to install the 1.02B patch several times. I have patched to 1.02. I've even dragged each 1.02B files into the CS folders (EF, WS, & RS). Nothing seems to work.

What is the problem, keystone?

Jason Petho

Jason:
I've successfully patched the game to 1.02. I wish to patch the game to 1.02B. I've installed all the files from the 1.02B patch into their respective folders (ie WF,EF, & RS). The EF exe application does not write over the old exe, therefore even though I've copied all the 1.02B files into the EF folder, when I run the game, runs as 1.02 and not 1.02B.

There won't be any indication of running 1.02B (it does not say in the ABOUT area), apart from knowing you copied over the zipped files.

When I look at the verson during the game is says 1.02. When the screen is scrolled I get white flashes, no hard attack values.

Jason:
Does patch 1.02B correct the problems associated with Vista? ie - white flashing when scrolling and hard attack strenght problems.

Thanks,
Arthur

1.02 should, which needs to be installed first.

1.02B corrects a few order of battle issues.

Jason Petho

Jason:
Which patch corrects the vista issues?

Arthur

The 1.02 patch corrects the vista issue.
