well good news got it to work i noticed though that my game was sort of no longer installed for some reason it was no longer visible in the unistall list etc but i guess it had to do with the crash i had a week ago however i still could play the game ???

anyway off to testing ;)

back from a bit of testing before going to bed.

i noticed that when you order sea units to reserve they simply refuse to (they wont move an inch) i always lock out my ministers from anything so i can control my units etc on my own,

this odd thingy also happens to airplanes which the range is too big for them to fly to get back into reserve, for example the airplanes placed in japan wont move an inch when you order them to reserve either the pilots are deaf to their orders or they are just trolling me. thats all for now sry for the wall o text btw.

Actually we've seen that, should have added it to the known issues. They sometimes have problems with scrap orders as well. On our list for update 3.

I am currently investigating this right now - it is not "debugger friendly" (ie, it doesn't crash in debugger, only in release builds). Current suspicion is that it is spy related though, especially spies that get recalled when their mission ends due to land capture.

Ah! Good point... I had spies doing recon close by! Of to try that...

ETA: Yup... If you conquer an enemy hex where you have a spy a CTD occurs....

Can you describe, step by step, how you got this update to apply to a fresh steam install? I just reinstalled the game 2 days ago, and cannot apply this update.

reinstall supreme in steam and do the do the: "not update the game" thing in properties of the game then download update 7.2.1 and install it this will downgrade your game to that version ( i think) then put the 7.2.2 update and then that one.


it worked for me .

well, i did a clean install
then the "update after install" did the 7.2.1
then i did the 7.2.2
then the 7.2.45

game won't start.. shortly for a few hundred ms I can see the icon in the taskbar, and then it's gone.. going to fast to see it in the taskmgr. any log file i can check to see what's going on?

NM, found it.. corrupted registry settings
I think I have to start to subversion my windows registry ;)

Noticed off the bat Mocconell (SP) AFB has some Ag buildings in a military hex... Not sure if bug, and its not terribly important.


So far, I like it. I've seen the AI flood Cyprus and then completely leave it...

If you didn't read the OP, this isnt the patch anyway, its a current test version. The patch is still being worked on.

As to box copies, you could have ordered directly from paradox like i did. Or used a Digital service that doesn't alter the .exe of games.(which I also did cause I didnt wanna wait for shipping) :wink:

That being said, whenever the patch is finally actually released you can expect steam to be behind due to them needing to push the update through steam which takes longer and involves more working parts then just posting a link. (I hope for you that it isn't long after the actual release but there is no telling TBH)

I see the Intel HD 4000 graphics are still not supported? Is that correct?

ADD:

As I search online for related cq. similar errors, I start to tend it's not SR2020 related but there
seems to be some issues with the Intel HD 4000 and it's support by the BIOS of many motherboard
vendors.

So I think until further notice, this can be considered a non-SR2020 bug but a Intel HD 4000
related bug.. I saw Asus released already 4 more updates for my motherboard, which I last
checked the BIOS 6 weeks ago, so will try later the new BIOS to see if it goes away..

Is this test release supposed to have implemented corrections from "Map errata" and "Unit errata" threads or are those coming in Update 3? Just asking 'cause most of things mentioned in those threads is still incorrect. :-?
