Thanks for the info Franciscus. I'll check it out.

Good evening everyone. My PC is hemorrhaging and needs to be put out of its misery. Is AACW available for a Mac OS somewhere? I'd rather not use VMWare. If it is available, are there any differences between the PC and Mac versions of AACW? Can you PBEM between the different operating systems?

Fantastic! Thanks Jim-NC and especially bburns9.

Does anyone have/know of an updated list for leaders based on the latest official patch 1.15? The list on the website still shows Stonewall, Holmes, etc beginning as 2 stars. I really want to know who is automatically promoted and if there are any changes to appearance dates per general.

Click the enable divisional command button to create a new division (the button on screen will be depressed). Use Ctrl/left click to add elements to the division. If you click the divisional command button again, you will disable divisional command for this leader and lose the cost in money and reso...

Thanks for the response Patrick.

Hello all. First of all, fantastic game! My question is regarding destroying/repairing railroads function of the AI. Playing as the Confed and destroying railroads with cavalry raiders whenever possible to limit Union troop movements, it doesn't seem the AI makes much effort in repair. Has anyone el...

Thanks Gray. Maybe I can finally win a game if I play myself.

Hey everybody. Wondering if there is a way to alter the code to allow the player to control both the Union and Confederacy (ie. play against yourself)? I used to really enjoy this on old school board games. Thanks.

I agree with your partisan/raider strategy. When these appear during my campaigns, they are sometimes deep inside Union territory with no great way to expedite their movement south. I use them to destroy as much rail as possible and hopefully a depot before they get massacred. They are just too few ...

That's a good tip Gray. I'll keep that in mind if I ever need to edit text. It's been 4 days since I changed the settings and everything is still up and running. Good deal.

.opt file was sent to support. I think I had lowered the mem usage and texture size previously (I was also having trouble loading saved games which seemed to resolve). Hopefully, we can figure something out. Thanks. Used Wordpad to change the general.opt file under settings to 25% memory usage and c...

Hey guys. Having a recent problem gettting ACW to startup. I have installed the latest patch 1.10a and I have installed/updated my ATI Radeon 200 graphics card with Omega drivers on Windows XP. The game is in the process of loading textures, reaches 56% textures loaded then Windows says an error has...

Hey guys. When jumping from normal to hard difficulty setting, the game says the AI will receive more replacements and +1 activation. Do we know how many more replacements the AI gets compared to normal setting (25%, 50%, etc.)? Also, playing as the CSA on hard difficulty, I have noticed my generals...

My memory shouldn't be an issue for this game (2GB RAM, 50GB free hard drive space, Intel Pent 4 processor). No good idea what is going on. Is there a limit to the number of saved games I can have? Is it possible the program can't process adequately after X number of saves? As you can see, I'm not a...

Thanks for the response Pocus. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled the initial version (1.07). Still crashes. Deleted all saved games except two I was very involved with. Deleting/removing one or the other then trying to load still caused crash. Installed patch to 1.11 and tried above. Still cras...

Thanks for the response Pocus. First, the main menu loads fine. No errors prior to the main menu screen. Second, the error occurs as soon as I click "Load saved game" or "Resume game". No, I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game. I really didn't want to have to lose the campaigns I am...

Hey guys. First of all, loved the game until about 2 days ago. Progressing well and enjoying the game until I tried to load a saved game and received the message "A critical error occurred and the program will be terminated". I am running AACW on Windows XP, version 1.10d when the issue first occurr...
