SPWWII Tech Problem - Unit Icons Missing

Uncas · 11-05-2014, 02:48 AM,

Some of my unit icons refuse to show up. I've never had an icon for my Tiger tanks, for example, but now I'm working on a scenario set in N. Africa 1942-43 and I did a buy for the Yanks and the icons for the light tanks were there when I did the deploy but when I go to game test it, they disappear.

In both cases there is just a little flag in the hex, so you at least can "see" (kind of) that there is a unit, but it's annoying, to say the least.

I haven't messed with anything whatsoever in the full version. Can I just reload it or will that screw up all the games I have in progress? Also, I bought the full version in the spring, but did the download not the CD. Will Shrapnel let em do another download?

Any advice would be great. Thanks for reading.

You have a year to re-download at Shrapnel if I recall correctly. I would advise you unzip ( or install if needed) the game in a folder on your desktop then you can copy the Data/Graphics files into your old game and it shouldn't effect any ongoing games.

Here's the fix from Shrapnel: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=50216

Apparently I didn't load the patches correctly. Hope this helps anyone else if this comes up.
