HUGE issue with the campaign generator

We need as much detail about this as you can give. We have had two other reports like this but neither Andy or I can reproduce it so the more detail the better so we can connect the dots

I also have the exact same problem as pdoktar.

I ran the same test as mobhack in the exact same years, and countries and it would not let me delete core formations saysing "cannont delete existing core formation!".

OK. Give us some details on the computer you are using. Are you running an intel or AMD chip? As I said, neither Andy nor I can reproduce this but obviously some people can so we need more info to try and figure out what the common thread is

I just tested it again using Soviet Sept 1988 LC vs UK USA & CDN. I bought some T-62 companies and a bunch of infantry companies. I deleted every other formation. I did this several times. No error messages or other issues.

This is for my Laptop.

HP Pavilion zv5200
XP Home Edition SP2
AMD athlon XP 3200 CPU
NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go 64M
512.00 MB RAM

Since I have and AMD that probably rules that out.

I tried a as a slovakian player against various opponent several times (one was always the UK) and year was set to 2007. However it happened with all formation and company structures I tried to purcase, with even using different countries as player and opponent altogether.

Game is a download version, patched directly on WinSPMBT v2.51

My computer is

AMD Duron 700Mhz
256mb RAM
32MB Prophet II MX graphics
Sound Blaster 16
Windows 98SE
Keyb SU
Nationality maybe: Finland???
No internet connection
(Yes I know it�s old

)

I may have only 100MB of free hard disk space left though, so maybe I�ll try to free up some space to see if it works at first.

Don't know if this makes a difference but I copied my 2.51 to another location then did a clean install from my CD and then patched to 3.0.

EDIT OK forget this question. I re-read all the posts and noted that it's been reported on the DL version as well

OK this one is really turning into a mystery but there's one bit of information I don't know for certain. Is this happening to anyone with the DL version ? So far, all I know for <certain> is this is an hit or miss issue with the CD version.
