When do divisions become available for CSA? In the April 81 game will we be notified in the message window? I'm trying to determine if my game is working properly. using 1.05c

First divisions become available on the May 1, 1861 turn. There are 6 of them, IIRC.

Hi gbs!

CSA:
Early May 1861: 3 Divisions
Early June 1861: 6 Divisions
Early July 1861: 24 Divisions

USA:
Early May 1861: 6 Divisions
Early June 1861: 12 Divisions
Early July 1861: 48 Divisions

There will be no event message.

Cheers
Norbert

Well, my addition of aacw is totally screwed...I have no divisions at all in my current or previous game. Just great.

I would reccomend a reinstall along with a patch to 1.05c. I've had no problems with the new division rule. Something got messes up with your install of one of the files in your game.

Do you mod your files at all?

Did you use the option [font="Courier New"]RemoveDivHQ = 0[/font] to finish your old game? If yes, make sure you removed it again.
Did the patch install correctly? It shows 1.05c at game start?
In the directory [font="Courier New"]...\AGEod's American Civil War\ACW\Events\[/font] you will find the file [font="Courier New"]1861 April Campaign.sct[/font].
Take a look into the file. Near the top you should find:

Code: Select all

StartEvent = evt_nam_CSA_InitialForcePoolMay61|1|0|NULL|NULL|NULL|NULL

Conditions
  FixedDate = 1861/05/01

Actions
  SetCombiUnits = 0;0;3

I did have RemoveDiv = 0 because I remember putting it in . I reloaded the game with 1.05c patch and that was removed. I checked. I couldn't locate all the other you mentioned in the events file but Divisions seems to be working fine in the game I just started. Thanks.
