New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Big Dawg - 02-19-2008 Hi guys, I have been a member for a few years over at CS MB. My wife attended a school garage sell and bought the ACW Gettysburg disc for me. No box, just the disc. I got 3 questions... (1)Is there a on line manual or is there a manual in the disc itself? (2)Do I need to download a patch? (3)So I can download scenarios from the ACW depot just like those found on the CS (East Front/West Front) scenario depot? I have not downloaded the disc yet. Thanks!!!!! Jack RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Tide1 - 02-19-2008 Hi Jack The is documentation is on the disk. When you load the game you'll see it when you got to start-all programs then the game. If you got the HPS game that is ;) You'll also need to patch it to the latest 1.03 is the one. As for the scenarios I'm not sure but most likely yes. Gary RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Big Dawg - 02-19-2008 Hi Gary, Small world buddy! It is the Talonsoft American Civil War Gettysburg game. I went to the Blitz patch/downloads, but nothing was available (unless I missed something).:rolleyes: For some reason my computer will not load the Word PDF file so I am stuck!:hissy: Guess I am looking for a patch & pdf to figure out what to do next. Good to hear from you. Jack RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - billk1 - 02-19-2008 Big Dawg, all of the patches for the Talonsoft Civil War series can be found at http://www.hist-sdc.com/. Hope this helps. RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Sgt Fury - 02-21-2008 And the PDF file is not from Word, but rather an Adobe Acrobat file. You need the free Acrobat reader from http://www.adobe.com/ Fury RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Lowlander - 02-21-2008 Hey big man it's your lucky day, l've just checked my war chest and have a spare copy. Send me your postal address and l'll send it over the pond but be patient as it will take about a week to arrive. RE: New to ACW Getttsburg (manual???) - Big Dawg - 02-22-2008 Hi guys, I am humbled by your offers of assistance. Lowlander, that is a very kind offer. I was able to open the PDF file after following Fury's lead (THANKS FURY!). I will look at the manual in more detail this PM. I want to thank you for the offer. I went to the HPS site and found 4 patches for version 1.03. I will download them later this PM too. Thanks billk1, Phil & Gary!!!! I just found the CD jewel case w/ instructions in the sleeve. My youngest thought the soldiers on the cover were "cool" and had it in his room. THANKS!!!
