New Patch 4.1.0.40 - Currahee - 02-14-2020 Gents, There's a new patch, 4.1.0.40, complete with a "what's new" file, and a new manual. To get the game to run, you have to first install 4.1.0.20, from 11-15-17; then, the latest patch, 4.1.0.40, from 11-21-19. Some had installed an “unofficial-beta” patch, 4.1.0.23. I had tried to install 4.1.0.40 over that, and it just didn’t work. You have to do the 4.1.0.20 first, then 4.1.0.40. Both are available on Matrix. A way to tell if you have the latest, is that a new scenario has been added: Chickamauga 1863. If you don’t have it, you’re not patched up. Another way, is that when you run the game, on the first screen (“installer” screen) there’s a button, “check for update”. Click that, and it’ll tell you if you’re current. It’s a bit of a challenge keeping this game running, but it’s worth it! There are some new options I don’t understand, but with the "what's new" and the new manual, we can read up. Remember also that the game saves moves in a hidden place, not your normal Matrix game directory. It’s in your documents folder, under “my games”, “TOAW IV”, “saves”. The game directory is under “programs X86”, Matrix, etc. Good gaming! |
