Not enough

[Platoon_Michael]

Why is it so hard to get this fixed?

[Tejszd]

Is that a picture from a mod? Or end of a turn?

When I tested regular WAR the screens were fine (top pics below). Having said that there a couple of mod issues to fix; BG commander pics and debrief screens (bottom pics below) that would make WAR more mod friendly (as neither problem with the same graphic files occur in TLD).

[Tejszd]

Mod commander picture placement problem (the problem does not occur in TLD);

Why is it so hard to get this fixed?

A lot of people will be saying "Get what fixed"

[Andrew Williams]

should be fixed properly as they were done 2 years ago.

[Platoon_Michael]

It's not from a Mod.
I played the one Battle just to see if it was corrected.

Why am I the only one who doesn't get the "Overall Cohesion" graphic or the "Total VL Control" graphics?

[Platoon_Michael]

I tried again launching through the new Launch Menu. (I see it now)
And I still don't get those graphics.

I'll try and un-install everything next week and just install WAR with no Mod and see if that helps.
But I don't see those graphics in my ScrnGadg or GameGadg

I haven't edited but a few graphics from those files for VETBoB so I don't understand why it wouldnt work for me.
Anyone care to upload a screen shot of these files after extracted with GadgetMunger and show me where they should be?


Thanks

[Platoon_Michael]

Just did a complete uninstall and now I don't get any graphics on the Campaign Debrief screen.

I only used the last patch.

[Platoon_Michael]

So I did another complete re-install and used no patch's
Now I get no graphics for either the Battle debrief or the Campaign Debrief.

Tested both an Op and GC

Also tried it with just the 1st patch as well.
Nothing.

[Platoon_Michael]

At this point all I can ask is does anyone other than a Beta tester see/get those same graphics as schrecken shows on his campaign debrief tab?

[Andrew Williams]

I don't think anyone see them but me.

They were not wanted by matrixgames.

[Platoon_Michael]

Nice.





Was the Fatigue and Cohesion removed from WAR as well with this patch?
I do not see that option anymore on the Strategic Screen.

[Andrew Williams]

strat

[Andrew Williams]

rest

[Platoon_Michael]

It's the Campaign text.

Am I supposed to add each Beta patch in order or just use the current one?

[Tejszd]

If/when you reinstall the last patch should be the only one needed....

[Platoon_Michael]

Last patch doesn't include the Fatigue/Cohesion

[RD Oddball]

We looked into this issue around the middle of February in context of a mod and the attached is what I've always seen on the debrief screen. We'll look into it again to be sure there's not an issue requiring a very unique set of circumstances to replicate.

If you can tell us the exact steps you take prior to seeing it we'll attempt to replicate it in the hopes of finding out why you're seeing the issue. It might help to post a saved game file in case it's somehow related to that. Since you do modding please be certain you have an absolutely clean install by installing from your CD and applying only patch v14b over top of it.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
