Re: Afghanistan '11 - The MOAB update is out!

Thanks for the update, just installed it. I'm in the middle of a game, but I can't see how to set ambushes anymore (using ANA infantry)? However, it does make the game more interesting!

...

Okay, solved it - the unit has to be veteran before it can ambush.

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Okay, great, it now works on the Mac. I haven't had time to test it on the Dell, hopefully I'll have time on the weekend.

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Re the Mac - good point, I don't drag the icon to the application folder. I'll do that.

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Once I log into the new administrator account I assume I need to install the game? BTW, I also have an iMac and this DLC does not work on there either. I have the latest version installed but once I select a campaign (any campaign) it takes you to a map of the Pacific and then you can't do anything....

No, same behaviour, aside from the font being difficult to read

Yes, this has been set up, and I've just rechecked it. The nvidea graphics card is selected.

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

I only have the renamed folder. It doesn't create a new folder when starting the game.

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Okay, found "My Games\Order of Battle - WWII" - for some reason it was in the Downloads folder not the Documents folder. I've moved the "My Games\... folder and subfolders and renamed it to "_Order of Battle - WW2". I also uninstalled and reinstalled the program (v248 then v...

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Yes, I'm signed in as administrator. I did delete the game completely and reinstall it a couple of weeks ago. Not sure why the "My Games\Order of Battle - WWII" isn't there in the Windows document folder

Re: Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Hi, Thanks for the reply. There is no such folder under Windows Documents folder (...\Documents\My Games). In fact there is no \My Games folder under \Documents. I do have such a folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Slitherine\Order of Battle - WWII. I did try and rename this but it just gives me an ...

Still not able to launch OOB Kriegsmarine

Hi, I've tried the various suggestions on the tech forum but still not able to launch the game. The game still freezes at launch (black screen - first reported 22 Apr). I'm using 3.4.2, and have tried deleting and reloading the game, as well as downloading the suggested options file. I've also made ...

Re: Beautiful game, but a bit too easy

I agree it's a really great game, and it's refreshing to see something a bit different and challenging. I'm still working through the campaign, but agree there is a 'formula' to the game, even at the highest level. It does take a while to get your head around the various mechanics, to realise it's a...

Re: Launch problems?

Thanks, done that. It advances to the main game menu but then fails again after a minute or two. Seems to be a video controller problem, but I'm just guessing. I can relaunch (provide I delete the folder you specify) but it will fail again on the main menu after allowing it to display for a minute o...

Launch problems?

Hi,
Done the above, but still crashing. It goes past the intro video to the initial menu screen, then hangs and then crashes the PC. Do I just wait until a fix is released?

Rebuilt Computer - can't reinstall the game

Hi

I had to rebuild my computer but I can't reinstall the game. I've got the original order confirmation but the link to plimus.com doesn't work. I've emailed pl_support@slitherine.co.uk but that doesn't get a response either.
