The Beta Patch kicks in the OOBNamesMod, make sure you have that, not the Matrix version Patch 1. If that doesn't work I'll revert this mod back to the full OOBNames listing which will have to do until things get sorted out with the patches.
Hi Reb,
I use the 1.006a and when I try running the mod without the patches I get the same problem with the names.
I will do some bataillon formation practice untill the naming issue is fixed.
Best regards...

Does anyone have some screenshots?

Also, I am totally oblivious as how to sprites work, but would it be possible to just shrink the size of the sprites and make one sprite actually 3 men? So same frontage, same sprites, but smaller men, and say 3 men per sprite?

I believe this was done in SMG/SMA for realistic scale mods, which made the men life-size (but look like ants) but it was neat.

Please excuse the use of cloned names for the French. It appears that Petit was a brigade CO and also was in charge of a regiment with the traditional two battalions. Also, it appears that all French regimental commanders commanded both battalions (within each regiment). I did my online searches, but got nada but regimental commanders, not a battalion leader to be found, or second in command...so help here would be greatly appreciated. I know books are more definitive in this regard, apologizes, but I've got limited resources here in backwoods Arkansas, plus my old eyes don't do well with book learnin' anymore.
Maybe you manage to access this site from Arkansas. I haven't checked Waterloo's but you should have 127 meg of sheer joy:

Edit: I went through Waterloo's and it doesn't go below Brigade. However this one should help:

[Army of the North 1st Corp OOB]; down to the Battalion commander from the 3rd post on. In French, if you need it I can translate it all.
