With the mouse sensitivity I first tried all the way to the left and it made it move slower, so I now have it almost all the way to the right. It is very fast during the opening screen and on the 1914 Guns of August scenario, but is crawling in my GC. I also have the sliders on the in-game options a...

Aha! :thumbsup:

Thanks Calvinus will give that a try, was just using the desktop icon. Tried to look around in the folder and couldn't find it.

EDIT: just tried it and a DOS screen flickers for a second and nothing happens (doesn't load the game). I do have v1.08I.

Appreciate the tips guys, but nothing is working so far.

performance issues in GC

Great game! I am really enjoying this one, but I am noticing a lot of lag and performance troubles when I play the grand campaign to the point where the mouse is barely crawling across the screen (I have set the mouse sensitivity almost all the way up). I am able to play the 1914 scenario with much ...

Hey arsan, I can't remember if they had assault orders in this example, but I have tested that before with assaulting the fort, and had the same result.

If this is true, I think there might be a problem. In our game my ships that had orders to bombard didn't support my attack from Fort Lawrence to Grandpre. Unless this only shows up in the log- there was no mention in the battle report or the monthly report. I had ran some tests and made an attack o...

Sorry, version 1.04c but has been present in the last patch and possibly the one before it.

Sangarecha the traitor!

Not really a big deal or something that affects gameplay as far as I can tell, but Sangarecha continues to wave the Fluer-de-lis on battle reports. I can't remember when I first noticed it, at least since last patch and possibly the one prior. Surely cosmetic only, but such traitorous examples withi...

Not sure if this is a bug or just needs clearing up. Playing F&I war scenario, Braddock's army attempted to build a fort (icon was enabled) but the following turn there was no fort and the supply wagon was gone.

Always interesting to trace family history. My tree traces to Henry Haldane, who was ADC to Lord Cornwallis during the AWI, and then stayed with him in India.
