I just installed the game, what patch do I need? 108c only?

Welcome to the forums, struckat
That's correct. 1.08c contains all you need.

Update, to 1.08dhttp://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest/AACW_Patch.zip==============================================================================
AGEod's American Civil War Update 1.08 a -> d
December 27th, 2007 to January 8th, 2008
==============================================================================
version 1.08d
- The music bug (a track would only play once) is fixed.
- The 3 scenarios added in the 1.08 patch are back (were removed by error)
- The Software cursor is now as fast as the hardware (default) one. You can activate this cursor by launching AGESettings and tweaking the option or by manually editing the file acw\settings\display.opt.

I don't quite know for sure. Perhaps because I integrated your script files while doing some clean up in the script folder, it is now smaller. It should be comprehensive though.

- Bug de la musique ne jouant qu'une fois par piste corrigé.
- Les 3 scénarios du patch 1.08 sont de retour (avaient étés déréférencés par erreur)
- le Curseur software est désormais aussi rapide que le curseur matériel (pour l'activer, lançez AGESettings ou modifiez à la main ACW\Settings\Display.opt en mettant Software)
My humble attempt at translating:
-Version 1.08d - Bug of the music playing only one time per track corrected.
-the 3 scenarios of the patch 1.08 are back (summers had by error déréférencés(?) )
- the Cursor software is from now on as fast as the material cursor (to activate it, lançez (?) AGESettings or modify by hand the ACW\Settings\Display.opt putting Software)

Pocus: Why would we computer no-nothings want to change a cursor for one that is only as good as it already is? T

Well you can now have a cursor in a shape of a pen, with either a CSA or USA flag painted on it, with the new software cursor. This is only for fun

Pocus,
I launched AGESettings and changed the cursor to a pen...nice touch. How do I get the CSA or USA flag?

I don't get it... i have been using that cool "pencil" mouse cursor since i bought AACW on april... and before that on BoA...
Where is the novelty??
Le Ricain, not sure if i understand your question... but you get the CSA or USA flag on the cursor just by playing the CSA or the USA...
Cheers!

yes but now it is very fast. Perhaps it was already fast for you

Aha! Thanks for the answer
Yes, I had some problems in the past with the cursor speed depending of what ATI drivers i used for my graphics card.
With older drivers "pencil cursor" works great for me on BoA and ACW.
But the faster, the better!
What puzzled me was that veterans

like Le Ricain and Tagwyn didn't used/know the cool "pencil cursor"
Cheers!

In BOA, you can now use (with a tweak) the 'British Colonials' pen by the way.

I activated the 'pen' option, but did not actually launch a game. Thanks for the answer.

It just goes to show that with a fantastic game like AACW, one can always learn something new.

Hello Gray_Lensman,
Is this new download (20080111) on a new download site ?
The download is crawling like 2 updates ago. It is nowhere near the speed of the 20080109.
Just wanted to let you know in case you are not aware of it.
Transfer rate averaging 56 to 57 KB
Thanks,
Chamberlain
** Update - download took 10 min. 10 sec with Cable modem
