| WinHlp32.exe is required to display 32-bit Help files that have the ".hlp" file name extension. To view .hlp files on Windows 7, you need to install this application. Here is a link to the Windows website where you can download the application: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/detai... |

| There are download links that don't require the download manager. When I saw that i had to download and install some 3rd party manager I backed off and tried the others and they were direct downloads. I'm sorry you had that experience General, it's a fun gaming experience but still very much in the ... |

| Dear Modders: This is to let you know that when I attempted to download the HPS Civil War Map Mod, I got a 404 error (can't find the page error). This was updated on 5/12/12 so maybe a letter error? Could you look into it for those of us who are interested in modding the maps? (The unit links were ... |

| I loaded the mod and tried a few turns. The team has done a lot of great work so far to get this to a playable version. The Campaign portion is limited by the format of Total War but surprisingly there is enough there to simulate the Civil War strategies of the Union and Confederate in the East, Wes... |

With the OOB's locked it is possible but would be very tedious to do because the checksum value of the file cannot change.  |

| If that was the case then it wouldn't be so bad and could perhaps be working as designed. But the game engine apparently scrolls through the weather lines and sets the weather for the date at or before the start date of the scenario regardless of how far back the last entry was. So for every turn of... |

| Rich, i didn't mean to sound snotty. The weather feature was the salient point for me making the move from a BG customer to an HPS customer and I get disappointed when I see errors like this. I sent my email notification of this particular issue to HPS as you rightfully suggest. Also, I wanted to ge... |

Anyway This should probably be directed at HPS but I was just curious whether or not this has been noticed before by you gents in the club. I enjoy the weather scenarios but this kind of carelessness m... |

| Anyone ever notice that the nine 2nd Bull Run Weather scenarios from Campaign Antietam are stuck in a single weather pattern? It's because in the Antietam_weather.pdt there is no weather data set for August 29-30th when these scenarios play... the last weather event is from August 28th (clearing/lig... |

| Sir, I am a Lt. Colonel that plays like a Corporal. So on the average that makes me a Lieutenant. I have Antietam and would be up for a game if that suits the terms of your request. |
