Tom Konczal Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I have just downloaded CM NATO but am afraid to install it since I have several v1.21 pbem games in progress. Will they be affected??? Thanks, Tom Konczal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Dave Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Hi Tom, To be sure I would finish off the old PBEM's first. NATO is at a higher release level, 1.30 I believe. David 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Make a copy of your CMSF installation. Use one to finish your PBEMs just in case there might be a problem, apply NATO to the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 The ReadMe file addresses this issue. It is visible when you launch the NATO installer (before actually installing anything): PREVIOUS SAVE GAME COMPATIBILITY NOTE: NOTE: Save games from v1.21 ARE COMPATIBLE with v1.30, provided that you save your turn-based games in the COMMAND phase (not the replay phase) before upgrading to v1.30. If you are upgrading from an earlier version than 1.21, e.g. 1.10 or 1.11, then save games from these versions are NOT compatible with 1.30. In this case, we recommend you backup your existing "CM Shock Force.exe" file before continuing with this install by renaming the file to something like "CM Shock Force old.exe". You can still launch the game with that renamed exe and finish your previous in-progress battles. Using that old exe however, you will not have access to all the new features of v1.30. Once you have finished your old games, you should delete that old exe file. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I have just downloaded CM NATO but am afraid to install it since I have several v1.21 pbem games in progress. Will they be affected??? Thanks, Tom Konczal You're fine as long as both players have upgraded to v1.3 from either the module or the patch when it becomes available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
