Re: British Miracle

I think MisterHinton has put his finger on the root cause of the problem because I have noticed messages about connecting to Copenhagen (I thought them odd at the time but paid no real attention to them). However, I have tried various combinations of video settings without success. Probably there is...

Dang! No problem, I'll repatch to 1.05 and start again, I'll get the same result. Might take a day or two.

Re: British Miracle

EPH,

So far I have seven game starts with this scenario, all have which have led to the same sorry, frustrating, conclusion. I can let you have a save game if you would be so kind as to check it out on your rig.

Thanks again for all your efforts.

Thanls Mr. Hawk, that is interesting. Maybe I need to go back to a 1.5 insatll and see if it works there.

Of course the problem then is how do I know waht maps to play under what install? Unless there is something in the release notes how is a fellow to know?

Re: British Miracle

Thanks, EPH, I'd be grateful for any pointers. I have tried again, twice, and once I got a little further but with the same end result. I fear it might down to my system but it is relatively new with a good graphics card and a lot more memory than was common when the game was released. I have also t...

I win the battle of the guages and then a year or two later, splat, the game crashes. I can reload from the last auto save but within a short spac...
