I have located 33 regions within BOA in which region terrain data does not match the map terrain graphics. The map terrain graphics, I believe, are the correct terrain. So I have corrected the terrain data files so those regions now match the map graphics. (Example-map graphics shows "clear" terrain but the game uses "swamp" terrain data. In this case, I would change the data file to reflect "clear" terrain data.)

The corrected regions are:

Sommerset, Monmouth, Reading, Sunbury, Lancaster, Bush, Carlisle, Frederick, Culpeper, Eyles ford, Cook, Danbridge, Warrenton, Guilford, Crook, Blackmingo, Lenud Ferry, Dorchester, Cherokee Ford, Ninety Six, Saluda, Thickety, Sapona, Saraw, Queensborough, Crook, Nottoway, Live Oak, Ochlocknee, Seminole, Chooka, Emuckfaw and Talahassee

To install the fix:
1. Open BOA folder, locate GameData folder
2. Open GameData folder and locate Regions folder
3. Use copy/paste to make a copy of your original Regions folder
4. Return to your original Regions folder. Upload zipped file at the bottom of this post into your Regions folder.
5. Unzip within your original Regions file and select overwrite all.
6. restart game to ensure data is incorporated into your current game.

The graphics depicted on your map will now accurately reflect game data for those 33 regions in your games against the AI. In PBEM games, the host must have this fix installed to reflect correct terrain data to graphics. It is best for both players to have fix installed.

If you notice any other regions in which the graphics and the tooltip terrain data do not match, please post here and I will update and make available the corrected region data.

Thanks for the work. This shall be fixed with the upcoming BOA 2 map

Thanks for that, Jagger. Great work.

Phil: When? I am about to buy BOA so I am not making an idle rquest. Larry

I don't want to be pessimistic but don't expect BoA 2 before later Q4 2007/early Q1 2008 now, we're running behind schedule as Vainglory and Napoleon's campaigns are going to take huge part of the work agenda.

However, I think we'll try to propose some kind of special offer to those who bought BoA from us and wish to upgrade. We don't screw the community.

More later.

Is this true? Pocus? 08? The last I heard was the BOA GOLD was coming out in September time frame?

We'll do our best, but we are quite late. leure:

So does this means that clear errors in the original BOA game are no longer going to be fixed with a patch?

Just wondering, because I would like to purchase BOA now, and perhaps get BOA 2 next summer.

Buy it

Owners of BoA will get a discount for upgrading to BoA Gold.

Well, it looks like Montgomery (Winchester?) is not right either. I think it says forest when it should say woods.
