Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
Thanks for the hard work.
Folks, it's the usual arrangement. You need to be logged in first, then follow that link. You may need to click it, log in, then click it again to see this page:
Pay careful attention to PC vs. Mac and 32-bit vs. 64-bit. For PC, version 5.2.9 is a patch; the original game installers for 32-bit and 64-bit are at the bottom.

Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
It can also just be updated on the game itself also, right?
Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
Yep! Both via Steam and the button on the Game Menurobertahyuk wrote:It can also just be updated on the game itself also, right?
Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
The Game Menu button worked for me on Win7 not-Steam. I noticed specialisations.csv has been updated to return "marine_corps" to the "Radar_I" specialization, eliminating the edit needed for the "Scrambling" prerequisite. So far, so good!

Outstanding! I updated and will try out Panzerkrieg now that things are fixed. Thank you!

I'm logged in and keep getting told I don't have permission to download.
Also, the MAC version doesn't show an option to update the game in the game.

Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
Is BoB broken again with the new patch? For me it gets to the loading bar and stays there. The loading bar never fills and the game doesn't start. I'm on a borrowed laptop, so it could be me, but other scenarios load for me OK.

Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
Yes, I reported it in Tech Support. BoB does not start as a campaign but I could start the individual scenarios. There again, I only started them; I did not play them much. But yes, BoB remains broken, I'm afraid.steevodeevo wrote:Is BoB broken again with the new patch? For me it gets to the loading bar and stays there.

I know that something will go wrong. This is common after updates

Re: Order of Battle - Patch & Tournament First Round
So far, for me, everything seems to be working fine. Just finishing up the Rising Sun campaign and haven't noticed any problems. Some of these issues I see reported on here seem pretty minor to me. Campaigns load just fine. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything continues to work.
