Re: United Kingdom Capitals

Ottawa is the second Capital. UK will surrender when both London and Ottawa fall.

Re: France Surrender in Europe, Commander at War

Is Paris occupied by Allied units? I think it was added some code for avoiding an exploit where the Axis player could delay the French Armistice offer to kill off more Allied units by not attacking Paris. If the Allied player wanted an armistice offer to be made then they could leave Paris empty eit...

Re: New monitor = new installation?

Which game resolution did you use before and which resolution do you use now? Which hertz are you running your monitor on? Try to set a mode with 59 Hz or 60 Hz. In the gs400settings.txt file in your c:\...\documents\CEAW Grand Strategy 4.00 folder you can set the high resolution mode: If you delete...

Re: North Africa flips to Allies, post Russian surrender

Who are you playing against? We've never seen the Axis being able to conquer everything in a fight against a human opponent. There might be strange things happening when you fight against the AI since we haven't tested that. There is a spawn issue when the Axis player controls Cairo and Kuwait. Howe...

Re: Thank you! (and hopes for the future of CEAW)

I'm not sure what plans Slitherine have for making new strategic WW2 games. I'm sure there is a market for it and they can, of course, use what knowledge they want from GS if they ever decide to explore the possibilities of a new such game. We can all only hope that something will be created one day...

Re: Thank you! (and hopes for the future of CEAW)

The warped scale of the GS map is partly caused by the development limit of not being allowed to increase the total map size. USA and Canada are actually seen as off map locations and placed so the naval and air movement makes the unit transfers from America to Europe or Africa not too long. Greenla...

Re: Transport Loops

Movement from the Persian Gulf or Red Sea to the Atlantic Ocean means having to sail past Cape of Good Hope. The Axis had no naval bases along the path to supply them with weapons or fuel. All they had was Italian Somaliland (e. g. Mogadishu) and British Somaliand (Berbera) which was invaded in 1940...

I can send some fix files to you on email to try out. They work on the PC version. Send me your email address as a PM and I can send them. You then need to get back to a save game before this happened and then continue with the fix. Both players need the fix so ensure you forward them to your oppone...

Re: Fix to unit deployment on Cyprus, Malta and Gibraltar

The above fixes are for the PC only. The MAC version needs a separate compilation.

I think Pk867 isn't working on the MAC version anymore after Apple decided to stop the Java support in the latest OS versions.

Re: Extended turns in CEAW?

Are you playing Grand Strategy v4.0 or vanilla CEAW? In GS 4.0 it's hardcoded for the game to end in May 1945 and victory conditions will be calculated at that time. It's not simple to bypass that unless you have access to a Java Decompiler. There are many places you need to change. E. g. arrays hav...

Re: Nintendo DS crash.

Are you playing the standard vanilla CEAW 1.12? Or are you playing GS v4.0? I don't think GS v4.0 supports Nintendo DS. If it's the former then I don't think there are anyone left to offer support for that.

Re: Recover pbem password?

Unfortunately the passwords are stored encrypted in the save file. This is done deliberately so players can't use any tools to look for passwords. In the original CEAW these were stored unencrypted. In GS v4.0 you can play with automatic passwords. Then you don't have to remember it. The game will r...

Re: Finland surrenders on Barbarossa turn 2

I guess you mean Finland offers armistice with Russia. This can happen after Finland joins the Axis if both these conditions are met: 1. Less than 6 Axis units are located in Finland 2. Russia control 3 or more cities or rail depots in Estonia or Finland. Usually Germany will reinforce Finland early...

Re: where experience levels are shown?

I don't think this problem is relevant anymore with Grand Strategy 4.0. All languages have the same file there. XP dots should work in GS 4.0

I got no PM from you. I tried the fix and it worked for me, but you have to backtrack to a save file from before the event happened. It won't fix a problem that already occured because of the bug. The fix will prevent the bug from happening. The goal is to ensure it won't happen again. I haven't dis...

Re: Oil consumption

This is stored in the save file as one of the options you make. Oil consumption is on by default. So turning that off means you need to start a new game. We can't edit save game settings because the save file is encrypted. This is actually a good thing or the game settings could be altered by one of...

Re: Disappearing Kreigsmarine

I've seen it happen before when naval units disappear. It has been impossible to recreate. It seems to happen when a convoy moves and for some reason ends up in the same hex as an enemy unit. Normally the target hex can't be an occupied hex. So why this is happening is puzzling. Others who have had ...
