Bulge 44' patch question - WillyPete - 10-24-2011

Hello All,

I'm fairly new to the series and have only played against the AI so far.

I noticed that many of the recent patches for the Campaign series games have added a "magnified" 2D map. This is perfect for my tired eyes and I wonder if there is there a patch I'm missing that adds this?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
Will

Will,

John Tiller's crew is still working on producing updates for the series. There are only a few games left that haven't had the new update feature you are looking for.

The magnified 2D map feature is a super great new feature and you are not the only one who is patiently waiting for the whole series to be updated completely. Big Grin

Make sure to give PBEM a try. Once you start and develop some regular PBEM opponents you'll never go back to playing against the AI.

Thanks for the info! I plan to get a few more games in to get myself familiar with the rules and then I will try PBEM.

Are there any mods for the 3D view? I like playing in that view at times to get a better feel for the situation. However, again, the units tend to be tiny and difficult to see. A mod making the units a fraction larger would made a great difference to me.
