Thank you so much Grzegorz, splendid explication & hints

Tomorrow will be available OpenSuite 5.0.73.4 fixing the issue with global changes to terrain, not updating tiled maps

:huh I don't think we're talking about the same thing: I'm talking about the title of this thread, which spells " Suite-OG. Questions & Bugs - Latest exe: 5.0.72.18 (21-Nov-2020) ". My OpenGeneral is "0.93.5.0 (July 22)", my OpenSuite is "5.0.73.3 (July 22)"... :eek sorry your are right :bonk Edite...

Hi none, glad to see you back to amused life There are still two annoying (and IIRC old) refresh bugs with tiled maps in the "Map Editor View" : Create a new scenario, chose "tiled maps", keep the suggested size (60x71). Go to the "Map Settings" view and, as expected, you'll see a nice map all cover...

PGX v785 available for download. This uses v1 World map - which I call Medium World Map. It is in a rough editing state, so, the "playing value" is somewhat low. I started a match at once because I'm a big World version fan. It is composed of 112 200X200 "sectors" for total dimensions of 3200X1400....

Is free and easy to use.

When i design OG icons and maps with photoshop, i choose "save for web" and then simply save them as png-8-bit. There is a checkbox for transparency, that is unchecked of course. It means if I remember correctly that your icons are all indexed (use a custom palette of 256 colours but not more). Tha...

Only recently I've been warned about you joining the Open General forum and I want to say that I am happy because you are still modding.

If you want to get your old rank and avatar restored, please mail me attaching the image and I'll add to your profile.

Could it be because there is no 3d card (not even a virtualized one? :welcome to the forum vonmaurer Surely the lack of the video card is the problem as SDL2 uses video memory to work P.S.

Hi :), Could somebody please help me to find a way to double (or more) the size of the game UI icons? Do play the game in 1920x1080. I found out how to zoom the map properly :). But...these tiny icons hurt my eyes, really. I searched everywhere in the settings menues, but did not find something to ...

Thank you very much guys

Hello Luis :howdy Just a quick question (no request): Is it possible to rename attachments at efile level? If yes i would rename attachment no 5, "support" into "ammo" in my efile. Yes, it has always annoyed me that it was not named “ammo” or supples instead of support Quite surprise indeed. Defaul...

What is exactly happening when you run OG ?

Dates fixed. Next big black spot would be the maps. I have no clue currently how to convert them into mapx format... May I ask why do you want/need the .mapx files ? OG doesn't use the .mapx files except for importing data when creating/editing map data, otherwise all map info is included in the .x...

Thanks for the reply! Interesting about the {i}... I'll have to figure out how to look this stuff up in the Pedia... Is that something in game (?) or a reference to Wikipedia...?

On the first branching of the 1939 France campaign, apparently the choice interface is breaking. It says it is failed to load the map, leaving me with a blank, dark grey screen that I can't interact with in any way.

I plan to create some generic Arab/African/Central Asian infantry icons. For easy filter options i will use the RAN prefix instead of my RA. So i would like to reserve the RAN prefix as well

So if i made unit png with one image and overwrite the original one it should work? In original campaign of Panzer General 2? No need to overwrite anything if you only want 2 faces for EFILE_PG2 (or for only a few ones). If you only want 2 faces units for only a few efiles, it's better to create a ...

Hello. First i want to say thank you for this wonderful mod. Then i have a question. It is possible to make a mod that keep the orientation of the units only in two positions like in PANZER GENERAL 1 (or PANZER CORPS 1)? I mean i dont want units to rotate when i move them. I want just two orientati...

The only solution would be to set as reinforces and to arrive close to the SH but a later turn

In the save-game, the problem is that all 26 units for 6th army are set as reinforces located at (0,0) instead of just "Not deployed (HQ)" You should remove reinforce turn to all of them if you want the player to choose deployment hexes, or set a proper location and keep as reinforces, if you want t...

Could you load the scenario at HQ, press <Ctrl><B> and in the form add to the already ticked files the savegame prior to the scenario, so I can have a look to the problem faster ?
