The new layer has not been applied to the current DLC 1941, but sometime in the next week DLC 1941 should get it's final update.

Here is what the new layer will look like, for example in Leningrad where it says 'move artillery to sector A'
The hexes now have custom strings AND this visual marker!

Also, the 4 new MP maps have been added to the multiplayer list. Anyone with the BETA 1.05 update can play them with anyone else on the BETA 1.05 update.
Just set up the game the standard way, through the multiplayer interface.

So try them out, see what you think, and leave feedback! :D

I tried one of the stock campaigns in the French version. My briefings all look like this:

Well, at least the action button on the bottom is legible, and in French as well! :wink:

FYI: After installing the new 1.05 beta, my DLC41 saved games will no longer load properly. The saved game loads, but the main tactical window is black, the strategic map is blank and none of the buttons work.

Also, I did need to re-install the DLC41 beta after installing the 1.05 beta.

Guess this gives me an excuse to start over again! :wink:

I guess that is caused by the new equipment file.

So we should have uninstalled the old beta before installing 1.05.

1.05, sorry

Post by jkile »

Sorry don't quite understand this???; is this original game rep. by 1.04; I assume that's what this is, but photo on this page is from 1941 DLC, right?

So, can you straighten out a dummy here!!!???

Thanks.

1.04 is the live version.
1.05 is the BETA version.

DLC 1941 is un-related, but will make use of 1.05 features.

Nope this is not an update of Panzer corps 1.04 yet but the Panzer Corps BETA 1.05 which you should use now to beta test DLC 41 and to try out the new MP maps with other betatesters here :).
I read that soon a new beta of DLC 41 will be out for testing, so you will need the beta 1.05 for the new units and such.

Have you definitely upgraded to the latest DLC version? There was a problem with the Belgrade victory conditions initially (you'd only get a marginal if you put both Romanians in the city) but that has been fixed AFAIK.

I'm sure lots of players were happy with the german version, and now even a french version. Well done.
Next version in dutch? ;).

I thought I did. I d/l'd the 1.05 and the new launcher. How can one tell easily? Should I uninstall the DLC3 beta and reinstall everything?

Oh, amd French appeared as a language option.

It would be great if would could add one more feature to the editor.

For Iron Cross Red Star we could use this feature.

For the hill... a designer could add a zone around the hill. Then give that zone a minus one to HA.

Having a negative parameter for HA, SA and GD would allow the hill to act as an advantage point to capture and hold.
