Hi
I have a clean install ( 3 times the newest patch )
no cheat, modifications or similar added to the game its 100 % clean.

and yet i cannot see V1 bombers in the first scenario from the campaign and further in i fail because the non existing V1 and V2s cannot be moved since they are not there :)

please advise and please dont tell me to reinsall the entire game and all added campaigns since it will take too long

cheers

That seems to be a corrupted installation. So probably you'll have to install everything again.
However I've asked the dev to take a look at this and see if he has any different suggestion.
Let's wait and see what he has to tell.

thanks Vpaulus the game has worked sofar flawlessly. I dont see the V weapons if is start with my "old" core units or the preset units.
ive tried to set difficulty but even that doesnt change that my V weapons are missing :)

I had the same problem.

Maybe the way i solved it works for you too.

You have to make TWO installations: Patch 1.13 and GC45 West.

I made only one installation: GC45 West.
Somehow I managed not to install the patch to bring up PC to version 1.13.
(As far as i can remember i cancelled one installation, cause i was thinking i accidently double-started it.)

PC was still an older version. You can check this on the bottom/left on the startscreen.

I inserted the installation-disc another time and installed the patch 1.13.
(I also installed GC 45 West another time after i deleted the whole GC45 West-file. But i doubt that this was necessary and i do not recommend deleting any files by yourself.)

Now everything runs fine.

Yes, it is of course useful to check game version and make sure it is 1.13. Without this V weapons will not work.

If the version is correct, you can check a few other things.
- If you start the '45 West campaign and hover any hex where V-units are supposed to be (e. g. 27,1 and 28,2), will you see them in the UI sidebar?
- If you use "all eqp" cheat code, will you see then in the ourchase list (they are in german tactical bomber section)?
- Do you have V-weapons in eqp file? (just open Data/equipment.pzeqp in Notepad and look for V1)
- Do you have units icons installed? (check Graphics/Units folder, the file is V1.png)
