I find it very frustrating to use the UPDATE icon on the game only to find the 64 bit update with a
message to go to the Members area to obtain the 32 bit update. Problem is; it is not there....
The program crashed on me last night and said that I have to load the 5.2.0 patch.
Nowhere can I find the patch, remember it is not Order of Battle World War II and it is not Order
of Battle US Pacific it is ORDER OF BATTLE - PACIFIC by Slitherine. Help please.

welcome to the forum and sorry about the issues, the game has been updated to 64bit, are you using a 64bit O/S? if not it's not an issue just goto the link where the 32bit update will be found

The link takes you to Order of Battle - World War II. I downloaded that link but it would not accept it.
I have 32 bit as mentioned in my thread and I also said that I want the update for ORDER OF BATTLE - PACIFIC.
I think that it is very poor when a developer launches a game, gives you a link to update it and then the link does not recognise what system you are using. When you get to the link it only has to ask you whether you are using 64 bit or 32 bit, not spend half an hour downloading an update to be told it is the wrong one and you should look elsewhere...

"Order of Battle Pacific" = "Order of Battle WWII"
It got renamed after one of the DLCs got released a while ago. If you download the Order of Battle v248 re-release file, it should recognise that you own the Imperial Japan and US Pacific campaigns, at which point 'Pacific' should dissappear from your system to the newer version. Then apply the v523 or whatever the newest one is and your campaigns will be waiting for you in the updated form.
Hope this helps,

on the members pages is the option of both the 32bit and 64bit installer clearly marked as such
https://www.slitherine.com/member/downl ... rld-war-ii
so as long as you know what version your running, it's easier to download the correct version, sorry if you wasted your time and downloaded the incorrect one
