1.0a

Got a prob with the morale coefficient tooltip when related to the actual number displayed on the top left (first top) indicator box.

It shows 89 but the tooltip indicates 95%. Might be wad? I didnt have a single minute today to play or print the manual but i saw this issue this morning after installation and first run.

EDIT: Be advised, 1.00a didn't show up in splash screen. Still showing 1.0.

EDIT: Be advised, 1.00a didn't show up in splash screen. Still showing 1.0.

Just push on to 1.0b... Its available now in the forum, or on the WIA website.

[Pocus]

It is WAD, the morale coefficient is the translation, in effectiveness, of the morale. With morale 50, the coefficient is 75% eg.

1.00a was just a data patch, so the executable was not changed.

[Hok]

Patch 1.01 available

Be careful, autoupdate isn't ready for this patch so you can only download it on forum and launch it manually

Have fun !

[GShock]

Perhaps it's too soon, you posted just 5 min ago but the 1.00b doesn't show any new versions available.

[Rafiki]

There is a small delay from the time a patch is released till it is available on the download provider's servers.

EDIT: On the webpage, it's 1.01 at least (seemingly): http://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest/WIA_Patch.zip

[GShock]

Better...so i have the time to submit the crashlog

Fixed it myself but I think everyone will be affected.

There are two files called 1299Playboard48.rgn in the \WIA\GameData\Regions folder. I fixed the error by removing the older one.

Thanks,
RtG

[GShock]

It appears to be an ascii character [] (a box) in the filename, you're right.

But of course there can't be 2 files with the same name in the file system. Good one RtG !!!!

Time to update the installer...patience

Now i wanna use this reputation button on RtG's post!

[Hok]

Auto update bug is fixed

[CristoFire-Ice]

The game crashes for me too.

Thanks, your tip fixes it.

[color="Red"]WARNING: This patch should be considered as Beta patch. Do not download it if you prefer to wait for a more stable and tested version.Thanks[/color]

[Hok]

Ok .. the main bug is coming from a difference between Vista and XP OS.

We will correct this as soon as possible.

[Carnium]

Pacthed the game to 1.01 used the fix originally Posted by RtG, ran the updater and it showed that a new patch is avilable (1.02) so I patched it and ... the game crashed. I noticed that there are some problems with "french" fonts in Wars in America\WIA\GameData\Regions.
These files are doubled :
63Sainte AgnŐs.rgn and 63Sainte Agnčs.rgn
65Saint AdŐle.rgn and 65Saint Adčle.rgn
178Rivičre des Outaouais.rgn and 178RiviŐre des Outaouais.rgn
179Rivičre Rideau.rgn and 179RiviŐre Rideau.rgn

Found this in the error log

RE-apply the fix suggested by RtG and do not re-patch until Hok says it's green light.

Re-patched back to 1.01 and re-applied the fix already and it is still crashing. The new patch must be changing something that the previous one did not.

[GShock]

Uninstall, delete all WIA folder, reinstall 1.0 and wait a bit

[Paul Roberts]

I downloaded the 1.01 patch yesterday and installed it on top of 1.00b.

No crashes so far. Have I done something wrong?

You are on Vista ?

[Paul Roberts]

You are on Vista ?

XP Pro.

[Hohenlohe]

I got something similar like Carnium.I installed WIA 1.00 and the latest patch and got an application error and therefore a ctd. I have not yet checked the error log,but if you want I can send it to you.I am using Windows XP Home on a new PC.After re-install I did not use the patch anymore and wait for a new one.But I am happy to have the new game,'cause I am an AGEOD game addict...*grin*

heartly greetings

Hohenlohe,who will try to defeat the rebellious colonists...*grin*

[BreckInridge]

I am playing 1.01 just fine like [B]Paul Roberts[B] on Vista, after removing the doubled province from the first installer.

I do rarely get a dropped order, the game asks if it should continue despite errors, and I respond "oui".

[Pocus]

The new (and stable) patch is due today. Sorry for the problems!

[Johnnie]

I applied the patch (when it first came out) and then RTG's fix which fixed the crash. Should I just install the new patch (when available) over that. Or should I uninstall and start over from scratch ??

Thanks.

I'd recommend uninstall, reinstall and patch.
