Re: Battle of Ortona/Update to V1.22

Post by arcticpost »

Thanks for the update guys. And the mental images I'll never get out of my head....

Reform, take as long as you need to set your units and play. We've all gone through it, and still are for many of us. I go too quickly too often and pay the price for my impatience so, you know, don't do that.

When I try to re-download the updated version from the link on p1 of this thread I get an error message!

Can someone run past me how to delete the file so I can re-install? I have deleted it in the downloaded campaign section but Iain the download campaign package it still appears greyed out....

What am I doing wrong? :oops:

Thanks Gort.

Reform, it's not you. There were ghosting issues in the download file at times. I'll find and link you the thread. You might have to tell the Slitherine Team.

Reform, third comment on the thread, is that what you are seeing?

viewtopic.php?f=103&t=40687

If so that's not an issue. Those guys stick around. It's a "work around it PITA" so download the most recent version of Ortona and it will be at the bottom of the list of your ghost Ortona campaigns. Click on it and it will, or should, upload.

Actually, wait, what error message are you seeing?

(Isn't defending Moscow easier than this?)

articpost - yes thats what I've got. But that shouldn't prevent the download... Should it?? I go back to the first page of this thread and work exactly from that....

Guys - especially Artic 88 and Monsoeren - thank you. I am now updated as Gort pointed out as Monsoeren traded up to v1.22 I got those "ghosts in the machine".

I'll tell Pip later.

Meanwhile God aften Monsoeren. tilgive mig for at stave dit navn forkert. Jeg har oprettet et nyt spil adgangskoden er "orto"

gudskelov for Google translate...... :D

I notice that Danish sounds quite a bit like old or northern dialect English.... No big surprise as your forefathers settled the north east of England....

Godaften Reform. We are moving - I see your challenge and am pleased to accept. Du er blevet god til dansk - du styrer for vildt :) Interesting observation on the Danish link to old English. That was also what I meant when I wrote in-game that you should be in a fair position for understanding some written Danish. Before we know it you'll be eating salty licorice and rye bread and pay 60% income tax :)

Game on.

Arctic thanks. That game was a pleasure. Don't worry, there will be a ME tourny soon. More space for catching some air or setting an ambush depending on your preferences 8)
