you need copy two files when you want move the app to different location (application - or as you call it, launch icon, and library file fmodex.dll)

best way for move Viewer to different location is simple
in User_Mods folder in gamer direcotry is another folder called JTCS_Unitviewer, copy all files within this directory and Paste them to desired location

Guys,

Just realised the Unit Viewer does not even start up in my Windows 7 64 bit edition.

I have installed the Campaign series together with the 1.04 patch to default folder.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

JTCS works apart from the reported Map Editor problem.

Crossroads,

See posts #105 & 106 above. I'm guessing it has to do with the 64-bit.

I've spent ages tracking this viewer down - and now I have it!

A proper unit viewer is an important resource for all those who want to understand different unit's abilities/costs etc. And the fact that it does not need to run during the game is spot on what I wanted. Now I can get on with the management of my forces. Arkady's program is the business!

I upgraded XP to Win8 and had to reinstall the game and patch to 1.04. I found some mismatches with UV. I found that the version 1.03.2 was installed. People that use this tool should check their version number and update if necessary.

Great idea, but it would be a LOT more useful if if also gave the actual file names of the movement and weapon sounds too

I can confirm the latest version Arkady kindly provided to us in post #115 works also on Windows 8 64 bit.

The version included in MCS 1.04 is an older one, so please upgrade folks!
