Re: Baptism of the Black Brigade

Thanks for looking into this. I've checked everywhere I can think to look and I'm not seeing any output anywhere. Has me stumped.

use the centre tab to change the path to your new campaigns folder for your custom installation.

Unfortunately, there seems to be a little bug in the programme, and the path is not updated immediately for the extraction tab (at least - did not try the others) .
- Probably never noticed by anyone since the default directory suited all users before Windows 7 UAC/File Manglement made using a custom folder a requirement for Vista/7.

Solution - exit the programme and restart once you have pointed it to the correct scenarios folder. It seems to read the path properly only on start-up, does not update when running ATM (will fix that at later release).

I tried that in both versions of the game, same buglet, (needs to restart to use the new path).

Default output is to the 800 block of scenario save slots and up (you can use the up-down control to change that on the extraction tab (3)). Scenario 0 goes to 800, 1 to 801 etc.

Cheers

@ gila: "The first 3 battles begged for an ambush,and that's what the poles do best
I got DV's in all first 3.
First battle was dicey at first though.

The last one was a different animal all together however,expected more armour so was slow to take all VH's and got an MV in that one, for a total of 12 pt.s for the campaign."

Very interesting gila. But I thought we got 3 for DV, 2 for MV, and 1 for draw? My result was 2 MV's (the first 2) and 2 DV's (the last 2)for 10 total and an MV campaign result.

Anyway, was there any German armor at all in the last scenario? Didn't see any myself; maybe that's why I got several crashes at the end (after reloading an earlier save and replaying without arty bombardment it finally got through to the campaign result screen). They almost overwhelmed me in the first, what with all the scattered VH's, so I was leery of concentrating anywhere in particular for the second. Guess I shoulda known the AI would go for the bridges, what with the demo charges.

Quite an engaging campaign, eh wot?
