I just played "Kutcher's Rag Tag Circus" five times, with AI playing the Allies because I wanted all the cool tanks. Anyhow, each time the AI used different tactics and the game had different results. I think that's just fantastic. I love the graphics too, closest thing to tabletop wargaming (which I also love). So I look forward to learning a lot here and maybe trying my hand at fighting a live opponent.
I have two questions I'm hoping you can help me with. First, I bought the Matrix Games edition recently. It won't run on my PC, which is using XP. "Wf.exe" encounters a problem in the first two or three turns and kicks out. Matrix tech support, while responsive, hasn't helped. I reinstalled dx for them, reinstalled the program for them, and reinstalled the updates. They're out of ideas. Any thoughts on that? It's strange, because during this process I found my old Talonsoft discs which work fine and are what I'm using now. Looking for patches is how I found this site, but I don't know if I should run any of them since the TS discs are working OK. I bought the Matrix set because I wanted more backup in case the TS discs get damaged and to extend the life of the game into new PCs.
The second issue is the scenarios here. Are there any tips on how to install and run them? Will they work with the Talonsoft discs?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Welcome!! Do you have an anti-virus running at the same time? If you can, please give some info on video card you use, firewall/antivirus, anything you can think of. Most times it is just something weird!
Scenario's most likely won't work with the TS disks, as there are new units and capabilities not available in the old system. Hang in there, we will do our best to get you up and running!! I have XP Pro as well, do you have SP3?
