Gettysburg 3Days in 7Hours

[MarcusC]

RebBugler-
I seperated the mods and wasn't getting any different result...THEN, I realized I should be clicking on the single player and then the user scenarios--worked like a charm. How embarrassing...after playing hundreds of scenarios and a thousand or two open play with mods in TC2M-yikes! Well, it was my initial voyage in modland here so I suppose there's an excuse. Thanks for your help--looking forward to playing this awesome scenario!

Getting back to the essence of this - what a fantastic mod, really engrossing gameplay.

It's my opinion that this should have been a major feature from the start for SoW.

Easy to say I guess in hindsight, but the main SoW scenarios just did'nt work for me, they felt very seperate from each other and confusing, with no real feel of continuity - TCM had a nice structure, it would be interesting to have 3Days broken up into that kind of gameplay linkage.

Thanks for a great 'mod'.

Can someone help me out here? It's been a while since I've played SOW (I know, I'm sorry).

I downloaded the 3 Days in 7 Hours mod but when I run it I get an error while loading. I'm not sure if I have all the patches/updates installed.

What is the latest patch? I get confused when I see ver1_102 or ver1_2. I assume ver1_2 is the latest patch.

My start up screen shows SowGB 1.2

Am I missing something that I should have installed?

I am posting my log. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

GFab

GFab, If you have been away and have come back, perhaps you may not have upgraded all the mods that you have previously downloaded. With the patch 1.2 some of the mods that you have may not work. But the mods have now been upgraded and all you have to do is download again over the old ones. Also I think to play "7 hours" you may need the "DRF" mod as well. Hope this helps.

Jolly, saw your post last night and it rejuvenated my scenario design spirit, and made my evening brighter. Also, and actually, I need Norb to fix an issue of 'carryover positionings' (new design) with carryover scenarios before I can continue a quest exactly along the lines of continuity that you mentioned.

Thanks RD for steering Gfab, that's got to be the most messed up log file I've ever seen. :woohoo: Yeah, everything's amiss...upgrade, upgrade, upgrade.

Regarding DRF...play 'em either way. Two scenarios are included, one DRF and one plain vanilla. This is explained earlier in the thread.

Thanks again for your support guys, pats on the back are always a driving force with us modders...right Jolly? B)

[GFab]

Okay, so what exactly do I need to get to upgrade?

To run the stock version, just the latest and greatest patch...1.2

For the DRF version, B&Fv6...read beginning of thread please. Then you may wish to DL:

Also on the home page on the left side is the Sow Mods. Just click on it and you can get all of the latest compatable mods.

Well, looking forward to more of the same - good luck with it RebB.

Meanwhile, back to start of day3 (9000+ but then get hammered)

DRF version has been removed because it is now included in B&F v7.
