Panzer Corps v1.01 Available!
We are pleased to announce that the 1.01 patch for Panzer Corps is now available! To continue using multiplayer you will need to update.

http://www.slitherine.com/files/panzer_ ... e-v101.exe
Changes in v1.01
===============================
New features
- "Restart Scenario" option from in game menu
- Window mode from in game menu
- Editor : Reinforcements are configured in unit details popup. Use "Edit trigger" button.
- Editor : AI actions are configured on the Actions tab in Edit->Scenario Params screen. Use "Add AI Action" to create an action that will dynamically change AI behavior.
Technical issues fixed:
- PBEM : Some MP games getting "dead" (the game freezes when trying to load the game).
Note: Existing "dead" games should load with 1.01 too. However, some of such existing games may not be able to show replay of the opponent's turn.
- PBEM : Claim button does not work
- SE units cannot be deployed if deployed last.
- Units with zero ammunition still contribute as mass attackers.
- Forts can be upgraded and given transports.
- On a joint rail/naval port, it is possible to load infinite naval transports under certain conditions.
- Turning supply off allows recon units to move an unlimited amount of hexes.
- Multiple ranged leaders allows half tracks to engage in range combat.
- Recon units with some remaining moves are not indicated with arrow and included in next unit sequence
- Hidden ground units stop moving ships, and vice versa
- Under certain circumstances the AI can assume control of player's units
- A lot of other minor issues (strings, cosmetics etc.)
Graphics/sfx issues fixed
- KV-2 has wrong icon
- Stuka D has wrong icon
- M12 GMC has wrong movement sound
- On ultra high-resolution screens (like 1980x1200) game setup and main screens have horizontal lines
- Italy-Sicily crossing not indicated in any way
Scenario issues fixed
- Stalingrad victory conditions are wrong

I think it's better to start a new campaign, or finished the one and patch after it.Khayyin wrote:Thanks for the patch.
I have a question. Does the patch change allready started campaigns? Because I was stuck at the Bagration mission. So if I load the game are the changes in there or do i have to restart the entire campaign?
During the beta testing we were advised to start a new campaign, when a new beta was released.

I'm still gonna wait, just incaseiainmcneil wrote:Some changes will kick in immediately, others when you start a new map. To get all changes you need to start a new campaign. It is fully backwards compatible so no reason not to upgrade and continue your games.
as unlikely as it is to break my campaign I just don't want to take the chance with only 2 more scenarios to go!

Awww come on, i cannot believe you guys "gave in" to a few noobs who thought the game was to difficult because the King Tiger force wasnt plowing through the enemy for a change.....iainmcneil wrote:

Doesnt matter if you had added 20 T-34's, they all bounce off a king tiger.
Bagration is the destruction of army group center..... Well, it was.

I tried using the downloader but it was sloooooooooow. The standalone is comming to me much more quickly. Rapping up some games and should be looking foreward to getting together for a game soon! I've been practicin'!TJD wrote:Is there some reason you offer the update as a standalone .exe rather than have players use the in-game update feature? I'm using the latter and am downloading as I write, hope that's not going to be a problem.
Thanks,

We had to appease the general crowd because their complaints were valid. For us hardcores, you can always play on the expanded difficulty settings. Just like Heroic Mode in WoW. lol
Besides, we're not done with the T34-85, not by a long shot.

Have just installed the patch and I was now able to download one of the Norway scenarios that had frozen in MP and to continue the game and opload it again
Unfortunately, when I tried the Sealion 42 game that had also fronzen in MP, the game startet up in one of the Norway savegames instead... and I could see all units on the map.
Just a warning, if you try to continue MP games from v1.00 and install the v1.01!
It is not a big issue for us, we will just start up new MP games with v1.01 instead

It will only replace the original files. When you run it will update everything it needs.spoiled996 wrote:When you download the link above, does it go ahead and update everything it needs to, or do we need to move things into files and such? Also will it wipe out add on maps, like zitimor MP, and Danzig, etc...
So if you've custom mad scenarios, it won't replace them.
Campaign and mods, that might be a different matter. In that case begin to consider to use Generic Mod Enabler.
Yes the downloader is as slow as a wet week for me also. I used a third party downloader - Orbit - and got it in 2 and and a half minutes.Byeohazard wrote:I tried using the downloader but it was sloooooooooow.

Well I had so much going on here, I couldn't pay too much attention to the dl speed.
Nice thing with this patch is you can clean up those 100&1 games waiting on your OPPONENT'S side that are never going to be finished. Now... if only the game RANKINGS could be auto included in the forum stats or somewhere, I have a feeling a lot less of those games would have been abandoned by opponents... Hint Hint
