Thank you ! Greatly appreciated. Cool portrait.
No more strikes. It's 1915 only few historical colonial rebellion.

Well, as written on these Forums any number of times now for all sorts of fixes and information; a big Thank You, Calvinus for continuing to care about WW1G.

Thank you for continuing to keep this as the best WW1 PC out there.

I must say thanks to you all who helped me to iron out all such fixes and improvements. As compared to previous version (1.08P), the game now looks incredibly more stable and fast, it runs much smoother and the gameplay pleasure has gained a lot.

Now my plan is to make 1.08Q official on 18th February, provided no major issues come out, of course. So your feed-backs are strongly welcome, as usual.

Yet a few days and the patch will be official. Any issue?

New 2-Person campaign as Entente, nothing significant noted as far in as November '14. Thanks.

No major problems so far (Central Powers, June 1915), just a few observations and questions:
A few sounds are not heard at all anymore since the patch (for example the 'charge!' sound when a battle starts and the marching/train sound when plotting orders, though these are heard during turn resulution); I assume this is due to the fix and was forseen, its not really a problem since most of them work just fine and it's really much more stable & fast now.
The British redeployed most of the V army to Europe, leaving British North Africa only lightly guarded to face the Ottomans; while it is possible that they will redeploy once the Ottoman threat is clear to them, I was wondering if it is possible to force the AI to keep at least one HQ in that front (I guess it's difficult, because the VI army is also operating against the Turks around Baghdad). For now, I'll monitor what happens as the war goes on.
The AI seems to be careless with the Royal Navy at times, sending the Battlecruiser fleet and at one time also the Grand Fleet right into the mined German coastline, causing heavy damage to their ships.

Overall, the AI is giving me a good match so far, stopping my offensive well before it reached Paris and even pushing me back into Belgium, before I was able to stabilise the front. This was due to low RP caused by Russian attacks (who use the Berlin plan). It's a lot of fun!

Hi

With all the latest improvements, what are considered now "optimal" configuration settings by you guys ?
- in the configurator (load sounds and map at start or not ? Sounds in streaming mode ? AI logs/memory ?)
- and ingame (specially AI: Full time, all behaviors ? agressiveness, difficulty ?, etc ?)

I remember these things being discussed here and there over the years, but maybe now, with some renewed interest and a much improved performance, some sticked tips on this would be useful for new or returning players...

For example, Calvinus, what settings you use ?
Thanks

Hi,

Attached my logs. CTD'd after the August '14 combat phase. I am playing in a boardgame-y fashion: strictly turn based, and stacks are visible (their contents behind FoW).

I was extensively alt-tabbing during the game, so that could be the cause.

I always use the default config (after installation).

Yes, it can be the cause, mainly if you alt-tab after battles and before the map is refreshed, so exactly during the huge end-turn calculations...

Anyway, I need of a savegame to test if the crash in army-by-army mode is reproducible, maybe a bug...
So the 1.08Q is delayed as for official for the time being.

head a go at it again, this time without a dozen alt-tabbing Worked fine

Same for me, everything worked fine. I also checked the army reaction as reported here: http://www.ageod-forum.com/showthread.php?28460-Army-by-Army-mode-moving-GHQs-and-army-reactions
All works fine too. I just found a glitch when the game quits, a memory leak by the map performance improvements, nothing more... Fixed, it will be included in the 1.08Q release when official.

Well, 1.08Q goes official. This is the new thread: http://www.ageod-forum.com/showthread.php?28476-New-official-patch-1-08Q

Current beta tester should download and install the new release of 1.08Q in order to remove the memory leak on game quit.
