Unit removal hex/ Dunkirk/ Britsh evacuation stops working

In the Dunkirk scenario, British units stopped being evacuated from the map on both the sea and aerial hexes on turn 14. Had transports and aircraft sitting on the hexes from turn 14 to 16, and none of them were removed. This meant I couldn't meet the victory conditions. Just to be sure it wasn't on...

Re: Launch problems?

OOB wouldn't boot after installing v10 upgrade. No error messages, just crashed. Deleted settings, no change. Uninstalled and reinstalled no change. Uninstalled. Searched for all files / folders with order of battle in the name that were left behind. Found a ton of them. The uninstaller for this gam...

Re: Stormy Battles: Red Storm Review and Discuss

I have the same issue as JHeim. I repeated the scenario 5 times and got the same result EVERY time.
Tried waiting until they land to do damage with the partisans, but got the same results.
Can post a video later. I recorded it. Or could post a saved replay.

Re: OoBWWIIMultiSetupRelease-v7.1.4.zip

I'm like wo76. I'm logged into the members area and I see no link for a 7.1.4 update in the My Games list, or anywhere else. Can't register it since it's free- as he mentioned, but then searched and found an old message that linked the ftp site. So, for wo76, go here (you can use your browser)- http...

Sandstorm auto scroll issue

I have 6.1.9 64 bit. There is an issue with OOB (Was just sandstorm, now it's all of them). The issue is the map auto scrolls to the west edge no matter what I do. I've changed settings, checked drivers etc. This happens in window and full screen modes. Recorded this, but no way to upload it. I have...

Re: Order of Battle: Kriegsmarine is out!

What I expect is a more realistic description. Plan Z is listed as a feature "What-if situations: execute plan Z, build powerful next-generation battleships and carriers and challenge the Allied naval supremacy" At least say, "in the final scenario", instead of making it seem lik...

Re: Order of Battle: Kriegsmarine is out!

What the heck? Why does this end in 1944? I've played and both won and lost the Invasion Looms mission. The game ends there either way. Why even bother having the Plan Z specialization when you'll never get the chance to use it or the upgrade that allows the new classes of battleships and battle cru...

Another crash report 2.9.9

Here's another crash report. I included a system information text file in the zip so you have all of my hardware and OS info. This was during the Tokyo scenario of the campaign. It started when i clicked on the end turn icon. Nothing happened after that. I included a screen grab of what the interfac...

Re: Order of Battle has just been updated to version 2.9.9!

@swdw Do you mean the US campaign becomes locked in the campaign screen after applying the update? To make sure, you are not manually deleting any files or something before/after installing updates? Deleted nothing. All I did was run the patch / update. The US Marines add on has not had any problem...

Re: Order of Battle has just been updated to version 2.9.9!

This is the THIRD update that has killed my US Pacific add on, forcing me to reinstall it. Same thing happened on 2.9.6g hot fix and 2.9.8. Installed 2.9.9 and now I have to rerun the installer for US Pacific . . . AGAIN.

OOB Pacific needs some tuning.

Some issues in gameplay 1. Japanese subs get to shoot every other turn, US subs don't. Yet US sub crews were better trained and reload times were better than the Japanese. You are assuming better torpedoes like the long Lance means they reload faster- not true.. 2. I have never seen more than 1 poin...

Two features I'd like to see

Two things in OOB would make life nicer. 1. Undo move. When playing on a laptop and moving the cursor to check destinations, I've had the pad register a "tap" unintentionally and move the unit where I DON"T want it to go. Since you give combat previews when moving the cursor next to e...
