Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

I finally got the various games to work, most in XP3 mode, a couple without changing compatibility. No malware or programs/services running in the background problems that I could figure after long analysis. Matrix support tried to help but was as puzzled as me. To answer the last question, in Win 8...

Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

No, I'm in US with IE. Very weird, some of my Matrix/Slitherine games run ok in Win 8, others not without compatibility changes. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary as far as the original setup of my machine as far as I know. Can't get Decisive Campaign games to run, though, because of serial n...

Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

I'm sure you're responding to original poster, but I'm not using Steam. Just posted here as I was also having trouble after installing and saw this is as a convenient thread. The XP3 mode compatibility "fix" still puzzles me.

Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

I've disabled security temporarily while having these issues. Played around some last night with compatibility troubleshooting and discovered that the games run via Autorun menu with XP Service Pack 3 mode enabled. A couple need administrator privileges, a couple don't. Very strange. I'll continue t...

Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

Correction. After further review, Panzer Corps and Pike and Shot do not work via autorun either. The exe's run the games fine, like BA2. What gives here?
All updates of Win 8.1 and other programs are installed.

Re: Steam version - Game crashes trying to launch from launc

Has anything been resolved regarding this issue? I bought BA2 through Slitherine and the game ran fine on Windows 7 machine. Just purchased new Dell w/Win8 and installed BA2. Game does not start with autorun. Just a blue spinning circle for a few seconds, then nothing, no error messages. BA2.exe run...

New PC Campaign Re-Start

I have a new PC ordered and would like to rejoin my existing "Barbarossa" campaign without having to start over from the beginning. After installing on the new machine, which BA2 folder/file would I copy from this machine to the new one in order to resume my campaign where I left off?

Resuming Campaign on New Machine

I have a new PC on the way and am in the middle of campaigns in "Moscow" and "Longest Day". After re-installing on the new machine, what file(s) would I copy from my old PC's Frontline folder to resume the campaigns where I left off rather than having to start over?

Re: The Grand Campaign Mega Pack is here!

I asked this when the Mega campaign was announced but didn't get an answer. I own all DLCs and with the current setup I can only play individual scenarios included in original release. The ad for Mega Pack states: " The player will have the chance to play all 150+ scenarios covering the entire ...

Re: The Grand Campaign Mega Pack is coming!

This announcement entices me to raise a question I should have asked long ago. With the Mega release, will we now be able to play all the 150+ individual scenarios in the various campaigns as one-offs? I've read the press release/info and am not quite sure whether one will be able to play campaign-s...

Graphics Help

Purchased the game earlier this week. I am running Windows 7 on an Athlon 3000 processor with 4GB RAM, but my NVIDIA GeForce graphics adapter isn't quite up to the task. Don't own many games requiring more intensive graphics and Slitherine games such as Field of Glory, Battle Academy and Panzer Corp...

Not to sound like a broken record, but would it be possible for those of us who didn't get original emails re: SOA Beta to get version 1.21 PM'd to us?

I got PM re: v1.22 but after downloading I got similar message as previous poster when trying to install.

Thanks

You read my mind about saving FOW preference. I, too, would like to have the abilty to save this as I often get in a hurry and forget to check it before starting a new battle.

Thanks

I purchased FOG about six weeks ago and would like to take this opportunity to thank the folks at Slitherine, HexWar, et.al. for producing a fun, realistic and eminently replayable wargame. You are to be further commended for the many timely updates and additions provided since the game's initial re...
