Will installing the patch cause any problems with on going PBEMs?

Hi
Quite possibly. It will depend on the level of security you are using, Also there could be issues with the OOB depoending on what has been changed.
I suggest finishing the PBEM first.

You can also create a second installation of WW2 and patch the second one up to v1.1, leaving the first one there until you have finished your PBEM.

Thank you very much for this patch. It's running very well now. A great work of all the team.

Extracted , installed and ran, all is working very well.
Thank you for this update.

Of course - especally with any secure games (there are OOB and EXE changes), which is why we have always said to finish off or abandon any ongoing PBEM games before installing any patch. That is SOP for the game.

Cheers

one minor point that players may not be aware of, that did not make it into the change list (I think):

In campaign games, when buying your support troops, you now have the option of spending accumulated build/repair points to buy support troops. An increment of 1000 build points expended buys 750 support troop points for this battle (i.e. there is a premium on the exchange rate

.

It obviously does not apply in battle No. 1 of a campaign as you will have accumulated none.

The button is where "MAX POINTS" appears in normal battle generator battles, i.e. at the bottom of the central block, with "VIEW MAP" etc.

Could be useful if you have a battered core in say a special battle with no repair (to buy support troops to take the heat

, but remember that repair points used now, will not be available to fix units later..

Cheers
Andy

Everething seems OK for me, no problem with installation.
The question about AI points - it should be set at the start of the campain I change it in the middle of campain?

Mobhack · #28 July 12th, 2006, 06:58 AM

Once set, it will apply to all campaign battles from then on. As it only applies at the purchase point for the AI force in a campaign battle, it will naturally come into effect with the next campaign battle set-up you do.

Cheers

Austerlitz44:

Well thank you for supporting the devs! BTW, the problem was on Shrapnel's end, not anything from Camo Workshop. My apologies to them also.

Happy Wargaming!

I'm very happy this is finally out, Great Job! Great changes and fixes. I hope this isn't too soon. But what about applying these upgrades from spww2 v.1.1 to spmbt?

there was some talk about a new spmbt upgrade a few weeks ago. whats the plan now?

We've been saying for quite some time that there would be an upgrade of WinSPMBT after we had finished with WinSPWW2. That hasn't changed. We originally figured sometime in the fall would be likely but right now, after two back to back game releases Andy and I are taking a longer break than we had originally planned and maybe the MBT upgrade will be ready before Christmas......maybe not. When we have information we will let everyone know.
