Status: offline 		Hi all,

In v2.15 and 2.15b the win8 form startup issue was still not fixed. Would appreciate any feedback from win8 users with this new v2.15 C version.

Also made some further bug fixes and AI enhancements. see below.

Only install if you are comfortable manually overwriting the AdvancedTacticsGold.exe and generic.at2, generic2.at2 and anewdawn.at2 files.

Get the 2.15 files here:
http://www.vrdesigns.nl/AdvancedTacticsGold215c.zip

Full change list:
-Attempted to fix rare cases of Win8 game window to small. Would appreciate feedback of users who encountered this issue in the past.
-Added code to prevent the freak memory bug with the new windows 7 KB 2670838 update, also improved games memory consumption.
-Fixed a rare ai bug
-Fixed some issues with intelligence card and made training card now able to select any HQ in chain under command of officer in question.
-If you dont have the PP for HQ+officer you cannot make HQ without officer even if you have the PP issue solved
-Officer pool inspect officer details makes viewing map officers impossible issue fixed.
-English officer low staff points issue fixed
-Added new variant for random games: cheap research

subversion C adds:
-Issue with AI stockpiling to much troops fixed
-Issue with extreme ammount of troops in battles fixed (>4000 individuals)
-AI transfer algorithm improved
-AI Supply and Staff production algorithm improved
-AI Naval production much improved
-AI Naval use much improved
-AI some HQ chains transfer algorithms improved

Big thanks for helping test and bug reports!

ps: one thing i sadly did not do was add some request checks and execs since i want to keep the code compatibile with the DC engine (which i recently already synchronized) since i eventually want to upgrade the current game to AT2/ATP.

and best regards,
Vic

Status: offline 		1) It appears to me that the automatic screenshot feature is broken in 2.15c, at least on my Win8 Pro machine. Anyone else seeing this? Please confirm yes or no so Vic has more info on this.

Possible Solution: After running lots of tests with different parameters and also finding I did not have this issue on my Win7 laptop, I tried one more thing on a hunch. I deleted all the existing screenshots in the ATG screenshots folder (300-400 of them). After that the auto screenshot feature began working again on my Win8 machine. Seems strange but it worked.

2) Updated the NATO Counters Mod to support 2.15c.

Status: offline 		In one 2.15c game vs 3 AI I'm playing, the AI does seem to be playing better. In one battle it surrounded one of my cities (was cut off from the rest of my empire), proceeded to pound it to rumble with artillery and then captured it. Way to go AI!
