Choose a saved game from the 1.04 DLC 41 and it takes a while to open (map is black, strategic map is strange pixellated, Esc Menu doesn't work, weather symbols are blank) and have to use Task Manager to close it.

This exact event happened to me as well. And I only had one more scenario (Leningrad) to preview!

In my experience it is better to finish the DLC scenario's with the Panzer Corps beta version already installed. Your core is not lost since it is saved after the last mission and only then de-install old beta and re-install the new beta.
For 1.05 beta, i also had to re-install DLC 41. Since we already had 2 DLC 41 beta's to play, means i also have 2 cores to chose from for DLC 42.

Sorry to harp on my own woes!
I redownloaded last night, file size is the 395mb
ran the install it installs with no issues.
Run the program and get the CRC error.
I tried it on another machine thinking with all the different installs on this one I caused and issue it came up with the same message.
Any thoughts?

I can only tell you what i did...
I download the new beta which took about one hour.
In the meantime i de-installed the previous beta.
When the new version was dl i installed it and ran it without problems, than installed the DLC 41 once again.
I made sure that the beta is not installed in the same folder of the vanilla 1.04 version, just incase.
With all the installing/de-installing i do a cleanup of the registry from time to time, de-installed programs always leave something behind.

CRC error is usually a corrupted download.
Try to run it in safe mode.

Blitz1945 · Post by **Blitz1945** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 1:07 pm

Tried that just can't get past it.
Uninstalled, cleaned up th registry, made sure there were no other folders.
Tried safe mode.. No dice..

Sounds as though there are bigger issues, so I will sit on the sidelines for this one!!

Have you tried to download from your other machine?
Does it have the same Internet security software?

Blitz1945 · Post by **Blitz1945** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 2:02 pm

It does have the same av..
I will uninstall the av and see if that works.
I can always throw it back on

I also have AVG on the laptop, never had a problem; you can always disable it before installing
I download everything to my "user"\ download folder and launch it from there.
I run Win 7 64bit pro.

Also have you tried to launch it as administrator?

Blitz1945 · Post by **Blitz1945** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 2:58 pm

I am running avg too
Yup same here win 7 64bit
Tried as admin

CRC means "Cyclic Redundency Check". And this 99% is a corrupted exe.

1.05 downloaded and installed fine...(laptop running Vista)...but previous DLC41 saved games do not load

Now this could in part be due to the fact when you go into 'new game' the extra campaigns folder is not there.

So it seems DLC41 also then needs to be reinstalled.

Reinstalled DLC41beta. Attempting to load a previous saved game gives:

Had to restart computer to get out of it.

I did a complete uninstall and re-installed the launcher and 1.05. A specific 1.05 shortcut icon appeared on my desktop so I'm now sure I got it nailed now. Thanks.

Slightly OT but get the Afrika Korps mod. Great game; easy to install and doesn't conflict with our Panzer Corps stuff.

Try to avoid using save games with the new beta 1.05.
Remember that at least the equipment file is different.

Blitz1945 · Post by **Blitz1945** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 10:05 pm

Well, I did all the suggested.
Used Firefox, turned off av.
Same results.
CRC error.
Oh well..
