My Database Viewer does not show photographs of the selected unit. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Kip

You have to download the photos manually from here.

Remember to extract the files in the correct folder ...DB/images/DB3000 or CWDB.

I did that and the Images and Description folders are in the DB folder. But the images still don't show when I use the Database Viewer.

On the "Options" window, tab "General", is the "Display Unit Status Image" checkbox marked?

Yes, it's checked. I'm using the COW standalone. Could that be the problem?

No, they should show up correctly.

Can you post a screenshot of your folder structure ?

Inside the \DB\Images folder, are there two folders named DB3000 and CWDB, each of them containing images for each database?

Yes, both are inside the Images folder.

I'm half-tempted to just reinstall.

Hi Kip

Make sure you didn't double up on the DB names folders like this (DB3k/DB3k). Was a pretty common error the first few years.

Don't think that's the problem, Mike. All in all, it's really a very minor issue with the game. Just a bit frustrating. I know I'm doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out.

It's working now. I downloaded the files as suggested by SCHJR73 and replaced the old folders with them. It's working now. Thanks to everyone for the help and suggestions.
