Never thought of that - good point :-) Can we do multiple installs with the same serial code for this purpose? Garrett I have two computers and have tried the game on a LAN. I haven't tried lately, with the latest patches, but early on-- after a patch or two-- the game froze up quite a bit. I alway...

This has been asked before.

It's always a good idea to do a search before posing questions.

The game was released a month ago. What are the remaining bugs? Some affecting the rules enforcment, like in any games. Some improvments for rules are certainly necessary, like in any other games. AI needs some tweaks, like in any other games. A complete manual is expected but by collecting all tip...

You are probably right, but I'm sure Snag-It has options that Paint does not have.

For screen capturing, I use Snag-It. It's not a free program, but it is well worth the money. Snag-It works with every program I've tried. And it does work with WWI, though you lose the mouse pointer when doing the capture and save, more proof that WWI just about hijacks the system when running. Her...

Basically people are going to review what they saw in the game. Not what it will or might become. And what they saw was a buggy beta release. No doubt about that. The game is buggy, sluggish, and arcane in the absence of a comprehensive manual. To expect anything else from reviewers than the honest...

Playing the French in a four player game. Early August turn - military phase. Several French armies and detachments show a mandatory attack but are locked, so I am stuck. Saved game attached. Thanks. I loaded your saved file and I see what you mean. I did some fiddling with stuff but nothing worked...

Try turning anisotropic "off" instead of having it on application controlled.

Nice compilation. But can we have an interpreter? Some of this stuff, written by folks whose native language is not English, is very confusing. To wit: "39. How do wounded units get to heal? Below each unit there are two little white buttons. The one to the left sends it to the HQ reserves, the one ...

In the confuguration dialog, what is the "Disable vertical synch" for-what does it do? I'm wondering if I need it. :wacko: Vertical synch is used to keep your video frames the same as your monitor refresh. So if your monitor refresh is at 60hz, your frames inside the game will not go over 60, which...

Hi Calvinus , if you replace the file I was left hanging major offensives, if I return to leave the original no longer :confused: Uninstall the game and went back to install it without replacing the file, it now appears that goes well Went back to replace it and I was again left hanging I'm playing...

Trying to keep up with my 'tradition' to read a/some book(s) on the topic of the game, I am looking for some suggestions on good books overall covering WW1. A World Undone is a very well-written, general history of WWI But take a look at this thread, coming from the Matrix site and the Guns of Augu...

Tamas,

Thanks. That is much more detailed. These types of posts are of great help.

Starting this thred to collect all bits of information about gameplay present here and there. Tamas explained how the battle screen worked in a AAR All this is fine, but it still doesn't explain what units or how many you can committ or deploy and what exactly is the role of reserve units. I'm gues...

Be careful, there are programs who search actively for vulnerable computers by checking more or less randomly chosen IP addresses. No need to visit a website. http://www.smileygarden.de/smilie/Computer/24.gif Virtually all ADSL modems come with a build-in firewall however (cable modems surely too),...

It was probably placed on the map this turn. Just move it to position, it will be in supply. Yeah, I think that was it. So next turn the units should be in supply? I'm not sure what you mean by "move it to position". On another note, I was again fiddlin' online, me against me, and ran into a situat...

Alan_Bernardo

I'm really not understanding this supply thing. I mean, I know that detached forces have to be near a HG to be in supply. Here I have some detached forces that are out of supply, apparently: http://www.ageod-forum.com/picture.php?albumid=3&pictureid=4 I'm clueless on how to get these forces back in ...

Would you like to help in doing such a document ? ;) :) Certainly I would. I went to the next tutorial and this thing is totally incomprehensible, it being very difficult to know what needs to be moved where and whether the tutorial was followed as it should be. I think it would have been much bett...

Alan_Bernardo

Hello, This does look like a great game, but I must say that the tuturial is quite bad. If I read anymore of "unfortunately you cannot perform this action in the tutorial" or "etc., etc." or see any more "!", I might go crazy. Someone unfamilar with the game engine would not learn a thing through th...

Try using Photobucket. It's free and easy.

It would be nice if we could get some official word on how to do this. Nothing I've tried so far works. The red x thing in gmail doesn't work, as right-clicking does not allow the option to open in a new window. I went to gmail and checked the source of the email and say some stuff, but I wasn't su...

Syt was kind enough to post a link to the page where you can enter your e-mail address and access code to get the download. Now, thanks to Gmail, it was a little tricky to retrieve my access code: I had to open the letter as a text file. There you can find the link which contains your e-mail addres...

Also, you can enter your email and download code here: http://www.ageod.telechargement.fr/tele.html Though the download code is not spelt out in the email. What is that actual access code. I mean, where does it appear? I've tried everything and still I get an error saying I am not in the data base....

To choose between McPherson and Foote depends on your own tastes. I'll take McPherson, because of his more scholarly approach. Foote is writing fiction, for the most part. Currently I'm reading Porter Alexander's Personal Recollections . Though obviously biased in approach, Alexander's work is bette...

Howdy,

Say, if you use Photobucket you can't append images directly to your AAR, making them appear in your post. It's easy to do and is free.

Look here: http://photobucket.com/

Sign up and you're ready to go. Upload your image, copy-paste, and you're done.

I think it defaults to that, but you can override by running the AACW-settings-program (found either in your startmenu or in the main AACW-directory) I don't think the guy was talking about stacks on the main map. He was talking about how when you have a few divisions (maybe) and some separate unit...

Well, at the moment it's June 1863 in the game I'm playing, and half of Missouri is covered in snow --- not to mention California! I haven't seen any of this myself. I've seen snow in mid-March, maybe in places like Kentucky, but there's nothing abnormal about that. In Ohio this year even, we had a...

I voted yes, but I think only Divisional HQs should be done this way. Maybe for Army HQs there could be put in place a selection of formation points instead of just DC. Perhaps St. Louis, Indianapolis, DC, New York, or something similar. Of course I'm no programmer and have no idea how difficult th...

Maybe real commanders wouldn't order their troops to attack highly entrenched artillery on an open field which are under command of an excellent general? :siffle: This is an excellent point. If the user is expecting historical results from a wargame, then he or she has to play the game historically...
