Close Combat: Panthers in the Fog Patch 1.0.2 is out!

Close Combat: Panthers in the Fog is the first new release (not a re-make of a previous games) in years in the critically acclaimed Close Combat series. It details the desperate German counter-attack at Mortain, the last chance of the Wehrmacht to stave off defeat in Normandy. Can you match the tenacity of the American defenders of Hill 314? Or can you succeed where the Panzers failed, driving through to the sea and changing history? Improved 32-bit graphics and the ability to control more squads than ever bring the Close Combat engine to a new level.

Close Combat: Panthers in the Fog Patch 1.0.2 is out!

Post by Daniele »

Panthers in the Fog has been updated!

Version 1.0.2 fixes some multiplayer issues (for instance a bug where the client could crash if the currently selected team surrendered has been fixed) and improves the general gameplay by enhancing features like Team List and the animation of destroyed guns.

You can download the patch from here

Here's the changelog:
V1.0.2

Bug Fixes
• Correct error message is now displayed (instead of unknown Error・) when the serial number check fails during lobby login.
• Fixed a bug that could crash on a multi-player client if the currently selected team on the client was a friendly vehicle and that vehicle was abandoned.
• Fixed a multi-player bug where an airstrike could cause a crash if it completely destroyed a unit.
• Fixed a multi-player bug where the client could crash if the currently selected team surrendered.
• Fixed a multi-player bug where teams renamed by the client player were not renamed on the host.
• Merging Battlegroups now gives the correct number of team slots in the merged Battlegroup.
• Fixed a bug where a team given a ‘mount’ order could mount the vehicle before they actually reached it.

Improvements
• If a gun is destroyed while being towed, the towing vehicle automatically dismounts passengers.
• The Team List now reappears correctly when you switch to Overview mode and back.
• Double clicking a message from a team now selects and highlights that team, in addition to moving the point of view.
• Double clicking a message to view the reporting team works correctly even when the Team Info panel has been moved.

As I said in the Gateway to Caen forum, there are different issues with different releases. The recent fixes in Gateway to Caen and Panthers apply to each other because they are largely the same code base. But both are substantially different from previous games such as LSA, TLD, WAR, etc. So these code changes do not (for the most part) apply to the earlier releases since the code does not exist in the same form.

As for when updates may be made to earlier games, we do not have a specific date at this time.

What is the latest version, 1.02 or 1.02a? The automatic updater chooses 1.02a, but in this topic is a link to 1.02... 40.9MB zip vs 41.0MB zip...
