Trouble installing Battle Pack

Post by Cataphract88 »

Hope you can help. :?:

I am trying to install the new Battle Pack on my second pc, which has no internet access. I managed to update FOG to 1.8 (from Matrix site), but although I am able to transfer the Battle Pack files to this pc I can only get the game as far as the pre-loaded stage. It freezes at the auto run stage, although I've been able to load all previous FOG expansions onto my non-internet machine! :? :cry:

Sorry you are having problems. What do you mean by autorun?

Another way to install it is to use the 1.8.0 patch and then once updated just use the unlock feature and enter your serial to unlock the Battle Pack.

Hi Ian

Thanks for your reply. I had another crack at installing the Battle Pack this morning, and while it was pretty temperamental I did get it to work eventually. :D

I'm having problems as well. The individual scenarios downloaded but there is no way to start the scenarios. How do I get to the unlock feature of the 1.8.0 patch, which I've already downloaded.

Paul,

The scenarios are in a separate category from the historical scenarios, so you need to select "Battle Pack 1" in the Game Type drop down when selecting a scenario. (It's the same drop down where you select custom to play a user created scenario.)

Chris,

Thanks for the info. I did find the dropdown menu with the Battle Pack 1, but when i dropped it down there were no scenarios listed to play. I think the down load got screwed up somehow. Still can't figure out how to get to the 1.8.0 patch to unlock the scenarios.

You have to install the 1.8.0 patch and then use the unlock expansions feature and enter your serial from the game menu to get the BP.

I have installed the 1.8.0 patch. Where is the unlock expansions feature? That's what I can't find.

It is on the pop up game menu before you launch the game.

And it's called "Register Army Pack Serial".
