Update 1.3.5 Details

Post by pipfromslitherine »

Update 1.3.5 brings 2 new multiplayer maps, 2 new single player survival scenarios, and a host of tweaks and improvements.

Details:

+ new tweak NoZoomLimit removes zoom limits if desired. Simply add the line

NOZOOMLIMIT 1

to the user.txt file in My Documents\My Games\BBCBA

+ improved MP game uploading

+ new tweak AllowMPHotseat allows you to play MP games against yourself should you desire. Add the line

ALLOWMPHOTSEAT 1

to the user.txt file. Note that we are also working on a fully offline hotseat too.

+ fixed bug when loading missions in editor which had scripting attached.
+ removed annoying message in editor for missions with deployment stages.
+ hold down shift to increase AI data values by 10 at a time.
+ fixed a small memory leak in the campaign selection list.
+ H toggles the shroud in the editor to allow for cleaner construction, but also show viewed tiles of initial player units.
+ fixed bug allowing units to unload onto cliffs.

error msg.

Post by pomakli »

When I want to surrender on the MP map against map, after clicking "chat message" button, this error msg appears:

"Battle state: Read past the end of stored data: size 4 (0)

and wenn I click this msg, it appears a second one:..

"Unhandled exception! Exp code:0x80000003 Expflags: 0 Expaddress: 0x7C8F120E"

I made screen shot! Send you per e-mail if you give me your address!

It allows you to set a challenge, then accept it yourself :). Then you play as per normal.

Thanks, for some odd reason I was thinking (gotta stop that thinking stuff) that maybe you had to password it first, looks like I was wrong. No wonder it didn't work.

On the first screen with "load, campaings, multiplayer, editor,quit" the "multiplayer" gives you the opinion to play against a human player per PBEM! (If it's that, what you mean by "two single player challenge")

Was this "sticky" ever made? Because I want to try Hotseat against one of my kids.

No but there is a sticky for Manual Additions

From that post

MyDocuments>MyGames>BBCBA>User.txt / Add the following


ALLOWMPHOTSEAT 1

Then save.

How to

Start game
click multiplayer
click my challenges tab
click new challenge at bottom
Select battle, side, type password, click check mark
back to my challenges screen, click accept challenge tab
click the battle that you created (nameofbattle yourname side)
click the accept challenge at the bottom and the check mark popup
type password and click check mark
click my games tab
you should see the new game listed and go from there
You can call me junk - and type that with one hand.
