Textures missing after 'Le Roi Soleil' update

Post by Pi-R »

I'm currently running a skirmish campaign of Dutch vs Spain on Steam. But after the latest update some Early Pike and Shot units are missing their textures. They appear now in blue with a proper flag. Something I remember that also happened Battle Academy 2 with the Matilda tanks. Something that was solved but last time I checked had returned again.

In my campaign his involves
- the only Reserve Early Pike and Shot in the Dutch army (above average) the five Early Pike and Shot units in the army do have their textures (all superior)
and
- the two early Pike and Shot units in the Spanish army (average and below average)

How can this be solved?

Kind regards,

Pierre

Ah, many apologies. New 1649-1698 armies have been slotted into the Army List file for the generic "Pike and Shot Campaign", rather than added as a block to the end of the file, so that each nation's lists are consecutive and in chronological order, to make it easier to find the one you want.

An unforeseen ( :oops: ) side effect of this is that ongoing "Pike and Shot Campaign" campaigns are likely not to work correctly after the update, because the saved army list reference for each side is likely now to point to the wrong list.

New campaigns will not be affected.

This issue only affects the generic Pike and Shot Campaign, it won't affect ongoing Gustavus Adolphus, English Civil War or Great Turkish War campaigns.

We apologise profusely for the inconvenience, but anyone who was playing a campaign using the generic "Pike and Shot Campaign" prior to the update would be best advised to start a new campaign, because the issue will not just affect the textures but also the units available to each side when raising new forces.

If you were playing a campaign using the Gustavus Adolphus, English Civil War or Great Turkish War campaigns, you do not need to start over.

Aha! Just discovered this myself. And my Transylvanians were *whupping* the Dutch. Back to square one :).
