Can only play first scenario

Post by MasterChief81 »

Hi all, love the game but am frustrated now because I can only play the first scenario (Williamsburg). When I try to launch any of the other scenarios my PC locks up. Anyone else running into the same problem?

Update - It's only the Manassas scenarios that lock up at launch. I've been able to launch the Miller's Creek and Williamsburg scenarios.

Ok, think I got it. The Manassas scenarios (even the smaller ones) all seem to use the same map and for some reason my PC won't play them at 2560 x 1440 resolution (which is my default resolution) When I lowered the resolution I was able to play the Manassas scenarios. Strange and frustrating but at least I can play them!

Since I pushed for especially giant maps back in the early days of development (late Bush 43 administration) I guess that this is all my fault.

Glad you got it working!

Hi CMC81,

Which version of the game are you running - you can see the version number in the top right of the splash screen as the game loads.

Also, which resolution did the map work for you, if not in 2560x1440? Are you running a single monitor or two?

Regards,

- Erik
