SoW Antietam map bug?
Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 2:46 pm
I have SoW Gettsyburg 1.6100 installed and I have just purchased the Antietam extension; I am sure that it is the latest version because I have checked for updates in both cases. Apart from the latest Couriers and Maps mod., the only ones shown (and activated) are the expected Antietam ones. My laptop runs Windows 8 (unfortunately) and the game itself is executed in XP-Compatibilty mode - Service Pack 3.
Some of the scenarios have dark skies initially but I am told that is OK, due to the early morning start. However the N/M map display is odd, with the map itself occupying the top-left corner, for about half of the frame display. This is quite different behaviour to the Gettysburg maps, though the actual size may be about the same.
I also tried a multi-player game recently but the Antietam scenario showed a "map incompatibity" at my end, apparently.
Can anyone shed any light on these problems please?
Thanks ...

PS I forgot to add that some of the units are shown off the map!
