It's the one that comes with the game. If you want to access and modify it, you can find it in the SDK, located here: http://www.norbsoftware.com/Downloads/S ... Ver1_3.exe

I'm interested if there is an OOB as of June 30th. I don't believe it's with the game and I've just did a complete reinstall. Wouldn't the reinstall include latest OOB"s. Maybe I need to learn about SDK or perhaps I'm confusing what the game offers verses the SDK?

thanks,

The SDK, once you install it, you will find the latest up-to-date oob's in your <drive letter>:\NorbSoftDev\Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Work\SDK\OOBs directory.

If you are looking for the latest scenario's converted over for you to play, you can get the download from here.

I do the sandbox alot....I would like to use an OOB for both armies as they were on June 30th, regardless of when they entered the battle. That is, and for the South....I would like to start the battle off with Lee, III Corp - Hill, II Corp - Johnson, I Corp - Longstreet, and Stuart and with all brigade commanders as they were for June 30th. Maybe I can do this in SDK. And i believe some time ago, someone said that the game could not handle 160,000 plus troops on one map?

Thanks,

Try this:

http://www.norbsoftdev.net/forum/modifi ... -in-7hours

There is a sandbox version available in Bugles and Flags. Set your game options on sprite ratio 10, then you may be able to handle 160,000 troops. I might have this preset, can't remember, but I can't check now as I've got to run...good luck Reb.

Hi RebBugler,

I created a folder in the MODs and I have the folders unzipped, but unable to see any referencce to the OOB when selecting an army. Also the 3 Day/7 Hour scenario does not show up, rebooted, that didn't help?
Any ffurther directions. In fact, I'm having trouble locating the scenarios that came with the game? Does this have anything to do with the SDK because I have not downnloaded that program.

Thanks,
the feb

Hey.

This is what it should look like when you install the 3 Day/7Hours mod.

Reb

Don't create a new folder, simply unzip the mod(s) into the Mods folder. Still, can't figure out why you can't find the OOBs folder, it's included within both my mods in question. Keep asking questions, we'll get you there.

Thanks RebBugler for helping me.

*Followed directions and was able to recognize the GB 3 Days in 7 Hours in User Scenerios. Sprite Ratio was set to 10. Got Yellow Box at left, nothing to right.
*Scenerio loaded to "Press Space Bar......"
*Pressed Space Bar - Game crashed (Error Message)
*Deleted all files I just loaded including "Restart Current Level"
*Game works as it did before.

That's where me at.
