Have Fun!

Hello. No questions? No Comments?

I can give it a try in single player. Any recommended settings for the AI?

Settings for AI is best in my eyes:
+10% MPP
+1 XP

Any idea why only German unit names have been replicated into every other countries' unit name lists?
Sort of annoying when using the English version.

I also find it very irritating to find Allied units with German names. This tends to spoil what so far seems to be a good mod.

New Version 1.2 Ready for Download!!!

Really interesting mod so far. I'm just playing against the AI so we'll see how it goes. Thank you.

There is some weird error happening with the scenario - units "offset" from the hex center, and also not spotting the details of units I'm adjacent to.

Units offsetting may be an issue with the unit sprites that come with the mod?

As to not seeing unit strengths, that may also be mod specific, e.g. are France and Germany at war?

Yes they are at war.

Very odd then, though does the mod have odd settings, e.g. for unit spotting?

Otherwise I suspect any graphic mods in play may be the culprit.

I think this is a mod conflict with graphic mods...
i only use for graphics the "PanzerCorps" Mod.

It seems to be only French units. If we need another mod - "PanzerCorp" - where can we find this graphics mod so that it's easier to play ROA 1.2?

If you copy \Bitmaps\Major02\unit_sprites_nato.png and unit_sprites_nato_zoom.png from the base game into the same folder for the mod the problem is fixed.

Sounds interesting. Especially the new research options!
