Hello everybody,

latest beta patch 1.08Q is now the official patch.

Here you can download the patch:

Important: this patch is for Gold Edition only.


Herewith I listed all news...

[Version 1.0.8q]
**************

New features:
>> PBEM play mode now generates a PBM file every time the game is saved. This file contains the informations about local player. So, every time PBEM players must share a common SAV file because the game went out of synch, they are no more requested to modify the SAV file because the driver informations are stored in the PBM.
>> Updated the PBEM Manual PDF accordingly.
The purpose of this new features is to allow a "host-client" PBEM play mode: a host is designated among players, he is the only player who executes the end-turn procedure and saves the game, then he sends the .SAV and .MAP to all clients.

Improvements:
- Game updated to version 1.4.0 of irrKlang sound library
- Added some outstanding rendering performace improvements in map window
- Only HQs and GHQs are now displayed in the mini-map
- Major Land Battle AI is now more reluctant to retreat when one combat flank is won
(*) AI is now much more reluctant to play negative or self-killing events
- Large river crossing tests (performed during movements) are now automatically successful because they caused loss of synchronization in PBEM or Multiplayer mode
- Added memory lock checks in game audio engine to avoid crashes caused by memory access concurrency conflicts
- Corrected the picture of Turkish general Nureddin Pasha, commander of the 4th army in 1914

(*) Scenario corrections:
- Fixed the Event "England delivers Sultan Selim and Reshadieh battleships to Turkey" (FRA_003)
- The 'Strikes' and 'Nationalist Agitations' Events cannot occur anymore before 1917
- Added 'Mutinies' Event for France and Italy, it cannot occur before 1916 and has little chances to occur before 1917
- Fixed the Event 'Commercial submarine "Deutschland" arrives in Baltimore' wrongly scripted (not mandatory)

Fixed bugs:
- Fixed a rare bug in land battle AI that caused an infinite deploy/undeploy loop in case of major battle when 3+ corps were deployed on one flank and only 1 corps on the other flank
- RP stock level is now downgraded by one point when corps are eliminated during land battle after CR_Eliminated or MR_Eliminated results
- New PBEM mode now automatically sets the EventsDrawn parameter off (Turn section) when Clients load a shared PBEM SaveGame file
- Fixed crash in battle logs window
- Fixed bug in events loading procedure that made uneffective all die roll modifiers for event checks
(**) Fixed memory leak on game quit introduced by map performance improvements

(*) : not working for older savegames

(**) : fix introduced after the latest release of 1.08Q when beta.

Best regards,
Calvinus.

Great !

Thank you very much!! I love this game.

Having problems installing the new patch. After installing, the game is still showing the old patch version (1.08l). Not entirely certain what I'm doing wrong.

Usual problem with Win7? Be sure you're installing the patch in the correct folder.

Not sure what the problem was. Decided to do a complete fresh reinstall and that solved the problem.

If i do not have gold, what is the correct latest patch for non-gold players?
I got the game in the AGEOD military strategy pack and just completed a great French and Indian war, and am working my way through the other titles now. Before i buy an upgrade to gold, I want to make sure I like the ww1 game as much as I did the WIA game. (Im almost sure I will, its a great product WIA.)

1.07L is the last official regular WW1 patch.

I clink on the link above, 1.08Q, it is broken. Is there any way I can still get this patch?

I leaved the game for something like this, that was not rare for me
The link for patch is broken

Thank you greatly!

Gents -

Thank you the 1.08Q patch. I am just starting to read the rules, and look forward to playing WW1 Gold.

I am delighted that WW1 Gold is alive and well.

My sincere appreciations to the AGEOD Team and all of the forum members who contribute so much to each title.

Suprisingly my WWIgold started shutting down during the battles, I can't even play one turn. Or it doesn't work for old saves and I have to start a new game?

just to be sure (I have both version of the game "normal" and "Gold" one): for which of the version this patch is ???

Good luck,

I kept getting the 1.08p sign come up even though I tried the q patch numerous times.

Eventually I did a new install and before playing for the first time added the q patch and then on starting it showed the q.


I hope this may help any lost souls wandering through here in 2020 and beyond.

PS - also you may have to scroll down to Calvinus's last posts and note that he has a new website in order to find the q patch if you can't get it elsewhere.

This is the patch link I got it from today - which I happen to notice is Armistice Day 11th November (spooky huh?):

Hello, please note that the above link is the old website that I will soon remove. Please use the new link: http://www.calvinusgames.com - https://sites.google.com/view/calvinusgames/games/world-war-one-gold-edition

What's up Calvinus?

hi Calvinus - thanks for the game
Hi Pocus - thanks for the games

can either or both of you make the latest link for 1.08q be on the first post.


PS I hate trying to use an old iPad, it's too exhausting to try and fix missing capital letters above.

PS I only occasionally play this game and even then the short scenarios, but it seems to work better on an old XP machine, as do ECW and CW2 - is this something to do with cores?
