Super-Duper stuff here! I know we're in the summer doldrums at the moment, with many of us away or sitting by the pool. But there is great content for TC2M players when they return to the battlefields! Very Happy

Well done Zeke & contributors!

Ok, there is still no second Union attack, even when I redid the scenario. Why not?

Hmm - CMP4.0 is fine with the scenario. I had a play tonight and couldnt replicate this. It did happen once in testing but I simply reloaded the scenario and I havent had it happen to me again.

Hey Zeke,

I've DL'd this mod, and I like it, but I have an issue with the sprites for three units. As you can see in the picutre, the 11thNY "First Fire Zouaves" and the two 1st Special Battalion of LA Infantry (under Evans) both show up just "whited out" like this.

I don't know what is wrong with the sprites, but I would be compeltly happy to just use a regualr working sprite. However, i cannot seem to find where in the .csv files this happens. I went through everything I could find: the units, unitsprites, textures, etc. and everywhere I found a line with 11NY I replaced it cells to the right of it with the lines for the 9th NY which does work and is a "regular" sprite I beleive. (So the regimetns of 11NY claims to be associated with the sprite file for the 9th NY). No matter what I change in the CSV files, the in-game appearance never changes.

ANy advice? Again, it would be great if the fire zouave sprite worked, but I would be just as happy with ANY sprite, just not the white blob. Of course, I want all THREE units to be fixed, as well...

If the game is running but you can't see the sprites, my guess is that the sprite file format is 'slightly' off. Sprites are in .dds format, but there are a couple of different .dds formats available. I'm loading the mod now...
