Small request - budd - 03-25-2020 Sure would be nice if there was a link to the designer/scenario notes from the help menu inside a scenario. I picked up France 14, don't know a lot of details about WW1, count on the scenario description and designer notes to fill me in. don't know if its doable but links to any other helpful documentation from the help menu would also be nice i.e. planning map. I have no idea about how difficult this would be to put in place and it's not really a priority, but it sure would be nice. I never know what scenario i'm going to play until it finds me, then i usually alt-tab out and find the notes. going through a lot of my Tiller games, seems most have designer notes. P.S. i always appreciate good designer/scenario notes, thank you for taking the time and trouble. RE: Small request - Volcano Man - 03-25-2020 There should be a "Campaign Notes" (which is the F3 hotkey) selection in the Help menu, which should bring up the notes PDF. Let me know if you don't see that (not sure if that was added later in an update, or if it was always there from v1.0).

I didn't check all my Tiller titles, just France 14. My France 14 version is 1.06a RE: Small request - Strela - 03-25-2020 (03-25-2020, 12:28 PM)budd Wrote:(03-25-2020, 11:11 AM)Volcano Man Wrote: There should be a "Campaign Notes" (which is the F3 hotkey) selection in the Help menu, which should bring up the notes PDF.

The other way to get to it is to go the Help menu. It is listed there also and can be clicked to open. Hope that works. David RE: Small request - Green - 03-25-2020 It does not work for me either but in my case it is simply because I do not use Adobe Acrobat as my pdf reader. From memory that is the only reader that works, for some reason.

Not seeing it in the help menu is what prompted me to ask. I use Adobe as my pdf reader, f3 just open a browser window with windows support page showing. I'll try everything again to make sure it's not simply my dumb-ass-ery , maybe get a screen grab of the help menu. RE: Small request - krmiller - 03-25-2020 Apparently the game engine uses only Adobe, so if you click on the Campaign Notes in the Help menu or hit F3 and don't have Adobe installed you get nothing. However if you go into the game folder you can open the Campaign Notes from there. I've been able to open it with Edge, Firefox and Chrome as well as Calibre an ebook reader I have installed.

RE: Small request - Strela - 03-26-2020 Are all the manuals (designer notes etc) in the game directory? David RE: Small request - budd - 03-26-2020 Yes sir, all the manuals, notes, planning maps are in the main game directory, not a manual folder like the PB series. I've opened all the manuals in adobe from the main game folder. |
