Prelude to Waterloo

Post by Freddy Fudpucker »

I own several of the Battleground series games includining PTW.

Did everyone else find that the 'twin battle' scenerios were unplayable due to screen freezes? No patch ever fixed this issue for me. The other scenerios worked just fine though.

I never had screen freezes and I played that game to death.
The only problem that I regularly experienced was that when I would start the Waterloo battle I was always missing a french cavalry division. The leader was there, but the troops were not.

I had that problem when playing under Win95 and 98 back in the days, but I tried it with a PIV 3Ghz and WinXP and it ran smoothly.

I remember having a similar problem. I think it was caused by the program reading the map from the CD instead of the hard disk.  Try copying the LN, QB and TB directories into your BGW folder and running the scenario as if it was a BGW game instead.
