Thanks for the suggestions already; another issue I have-
Currently in civil war 2 i have groups in washington forming each 8 command points and now I have basically 6 or 7 groups. I have to move these groups 1 at a time correct? I cant simply grab them all at once and move them to another province?

Additionally; the fact that im having to skip through units all over the map and am not simply looking at the map in a general sense means it is very easy to lose perspective on the grand scheme of things and whats going on, making grand plans and so on.

Ok so ive been playing ageod games for a long time at this point. I recently have been getting back into it playing civil war 2. My question is, how the hell do you organise stuff? For example, each turn I have a whole bunch of small units around the map, I usually have to cycle thru all the units u...

Did you run the game as an administrator? For Windows 7 this is the most common fix. Either right click or select options. Select run as admin. This may not solve your issue, but it is usually successful. Yeah tried that, to be fair my laptop is dying of graphics card death. It's been overheating a...

Reinstalling the game didn't stop the error.

deadmeat1471

I get this error about 3/5 times starting the game. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't. I dont know why it does this. I think it stopped briefly when I reinstalled the two patches. I will reinstall the game to see if this helps. I have the boxed version of the game patched to 1.10 then 1.15....

Before i looked into the history of the civil war properly, i had always been under the assumption that the confederates were doomed to loose. But the simple fact of the Manassas campaign and how very very close the Confederates got to Washington in the early days of the war, proves that they did ha...

deadmeat1471

thanks! im in the beginning of a pbem, and so far i have managed not to let my glorius british starve at boston yet

(which i have done single player two or 3 times.... :bonk

deadmeat1471

1024 mb my graphics are, however i have 2gb ram and VISTA = Vista rapes my memory (about 1 gb!)

* i lie anyway, i just tried new demo and it works fine! but alas.... the complexity break my mind

need to read the manual

deadmeat1471

also... is there somewheee you can see the attrition? like how many died due to attrition last turn (not including bad weather 'hits')

While the interface of WIA, civil war etc i find not good performance wise, this is practicly my only gripe (and truthfully on my laptop the performance issue is very very minor). My favorite is without doubt the ACW one, but WIA is also very very good in my opinion, no other game simulates the type...

deadmeat1471

I know theres a sticky supply thread, but im stupid anyway so... If ammo says there is 170 and use 60 per battle, what EXACTLY does that mean (the stack is carrying 170 ammo? how do you know how much this increase/decrease by?) If supplys are 170 stockpile and use 60, same as above.... I need to kno...

deadmeat1471

hmmm maybe you lost alot of battles in the south?

deadmeat1471

i didnt. thanks!

deadmeat1471

ill play ya, as british preferably

my email is shaunchattey@hotmail.com

i suggest 1775 scenario

deadmeat1471

Anyone interested? i am relatively new and so not very good

but anyone want a pbem game? can always do a scenario as opposed to full campaign if they wish.

deadmeat1471

hmm! i shall try this cycling stacks, im currently doing british vs american campaign and im getting *cough* raped.

*note* for all those interested, cycling the units is very useful, this solves my micro problems! thanks Arsan

deadmeat1471

Anyone have any? try as i might sometimes i just forget about units, and often find troops that have been in an area for a while and i just didnt notice. Im thinking of using the turn history in sections: Go through combats move stuff go through reinforcements move stuff go through anything left do ...

deadmeat1471

on second thoughts i not sure i was blockading, but i certainly blocked the bastards reinforcing/escaping

deadmeat1471

deadmeat1471

Yes, interestingly im just doing this as americans at boston 1776

deadmeat1471

Does anyone have any tips/uses for blockading? i currently havent tried it (due to situation never becoming right for it). I always seem even as britain to have very few ships (so far) and im not sure i could blockade even if i wanted to

deadmeat1471

I dont know of any, but i find the ai focuses on certain places (for example european shipping) and i counter them with my own (as britain). However generally you have to protect merchant shipping ass britain, and raid it as americans. Hope this helps slightly :mdr: i can probably help more if you h...

deadmeat1471

I removed both of those, and it does seem better (loading during game use RAM more probably) i think preloading it all was eating up processor power

even with the slight performance issue, as usual THUMBS UP

deadmeat1471

I have found something that removes the performance issues entirely for me, remove all the texture pre loading. Now scrolling etc works smooth and theres no lag whatsoever.

deadmeat1471

Thx!

interesting.... it seems to have little effect on performance XD

deadmeat1471

Can anyone advise me on the best options for the best performance in the settings? the game is overall performing well as always, but the momentarily lag at times i wish to reduce as much as possible :thumbsup: Settings are... Regions precaching memory usage Max texture size Textures initialised cpu...
