FWIW I used the full installer from my orders page (not a patch). I did not remove the previous install. We've testers that didn't experience either. That's why I released. It seemed to be limited to only his system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could there have been a temporary bad file up and some folks grabbed it and now it is fine? In his screenshot, Halmbarte's new brz shows as just 303kb? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else I'm missing? H Nope. Thanks. I'll keep you posted on what we find out. I'll get you a link to the v1.06 patch because you're gonna want that. Fortunately, as a Mac player this will mean almost nothing to you. The only Mac fix was a gun holster for some US crews. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultradave Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) Mac OS X: (I speak Mac ) It's not the mods. In testing (yeah, I'm the tester it happens to) I've installed clean 1.07 full installer, ran the updates from 1.03 to 1.06 to 1.07, and started from 1.06 and updated to 1.07. Everything is fine until 1.07, no matter which way I do it. I have some mods and I moved them in and moved them back out - no difference. But in each case I started with a no mod clean install. It's not my OS that's doing it either. I have Sonoma Beta and @JRC58 has 13.5.3 and it happened to both of us. Also, I just updated FI with no issues at all, with or without mods (of which I have a lot for FI). There's no reason it should behave differently for FI than CW. None that I can think of anyway. The .brz file for 1.07 is indeed quite small, but that could be correct for Mac since there is no PBEM++ support for Macs, just a couple of minor graphics fixes. There are some who get the glitch, and some who don't, even among the beta testers. So - a mystery so far. Perhaps Charles will spot something. Meanwhile, for myself, I kept an installation of 1.06 for now, which works fine. One thing I haven't tried though is whether a normal PBEM would be compatible with a Windows user on 1.07. For those of you who have the glitch, I wouldn't knock yourself out trying a bunch of tricks, just reinstall 1.06 and you'll be fine. John can provide anyone with a link to it. And you should be able to put your mods back in 1.06 with no problems. Dave PS - For Windows users, just as general information, on Macs EVERYTHING is installed in the application directory - the app, saves, incoming/outgoing emails, mods, etc. There isn't anything at all in the user's home directory (except the license buried deep somewhere). Different looking installation than that for Windows. Edited September 13, 2023 by Ultradave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyDog Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 I ran the upgrade on Windows 10 from 1.06. The home screen says "cold war v1.07brz" is missing. I'm not sure if this is due to Norton doing its very best to stop the upgrade (the "Data Protector" module) over four attempts before I managed to suspend the service. The quick battle selection options are "interesting" (force type: Vickers Berthia or Spandrel), and the force selection is WW2! Any ideas on how to fix this, please? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artkin Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Was the m106 thermals bug or the bug where it refuses to fire fixed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Fusselpulli Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 @BFCElvis what about a patch for the onmap mortars? They are so inaccurate, that I assume there might be a comma mistake or something like that, because it feels like they're inaccurate by the factor of 10. Which makes them almost unusable, as the rounds land all over the place. And I think there is the same Problem for onmap mortars in Black Sea as well. I would also like to report another bug with the lighting. The shadows of the Terrain is switched. When you have a mountain in the morning, the sunny side is shown in the shadows, and the shadow side is very bright. This is a bug in all CM titles. Maybe it's easy to fix, by adding a minus somewhere or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultradave Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 No, not that I'm aware of. I left mine at v1.06 and everything runs just fine. I don't even know what needs to be fixed I will try a clean install now to see if it's still an issue. There have been a couple of updated versions of Sonoma since then, and the file on the BF website is still the same, so it will check if it's something to do with Sonoma. I pretty sure that's not it, but it can't hurt to try. Dave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes the game almost unplayable with the weird unit designations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurent 22 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 (edited) I don't know if it can help: I also had some shifts in the names of weapons with the latest patch 1.07. It was the real-time protection of Windows Defender which prevented a complete installation of the patch. I disabled this function during installation (internet disconnected for security), the game works fine.
