IMPORTANT : problem detected on this patch; fixed at 11:30 (French Time).
If you have downloaded the patch before 11:30, you must download again.
The bad version is 2.20f. The good one is 2.20F.
Take a look at the initial page of Les Grognards, in the right bottom corner.
Really sorry for that (my mistake, I just deleted a line in the code at the last moment... )

Thank you very much JMM
May I ask about an approximate release date for The Belgium Campaign Mod?

Thanks again,
Andrea

Had some craziness esp with my F keys since installing 2F

In 1st fighting - no F2, no F5
in Hanau F2 OK but no F4, F5, F6 etc
In Quatre Bras as soon as I started the map everyone fled the field in disarray.   The enemy hadn't even stepped forward an inch. No F2.  F4 F5 OK

Also a lot of visual artifacts - I've heard of an opposite number but really...!

Of possible relevance - using Madrussians mods, just upgraded the VGA card to GTX460 & using latest 266.35 nvda drivers.

Guessing I've missed something.... & Ive posted this in the wrong thread?

[JMM]

Did you install the patch 02F...

The normal processus is...
a) install the patch 02F
b) install the package Waterloo

A priori, the MadRussian mod can be installed before or after these 2 package
PWGN must not be installed in the histwar folder

JMM

PS : no sure but it's possible you may install Waterloo before 02F

[JCM101]

Thanks for quick response JMM.
Yes 2F (i.e. the corrected version) over version 2e.  Waterloo pack afterwards.
Peninsula pack in separate HW install.

UPDATE
Made fresh install; added key; patched with incl patch to 2e; patched to 2F. No mods. No campaign packs.
F keys still dont function correctly, different keys work in different scenarios.
Sound is a bit strange sometimes audible sometimes not.  Quiet in most cases.


PWGM (still in it's old separate installation) - v201e - loaded La Corogne - all units immediately flee.
So I think cause is not the F patch.

Think the PC is OK as :-
Theatre of War #1 - openGL - works perfectly
Theatre of War #2 - directX works perfectly
Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943 - DirectX 9.0c works perfectly
Heaven DX 10/11 benchmark works perfectly
DXDiag reports no issues.

Only real change in PC is my VGA card from 9800GT to GTX460 & driver update. 

Perhaps this VGA card is an anti-Napoleon Royalist?

In case anyone is wondering about the patch & my problem with the game - I am 99.999% certain the patch isn't the issue.

After numerous attempts at installation, game is erratic on F key responses no matter what I do, & in battles I've played happily before now suddenly everyone runs away (I can use F2 in this case though).

Weird gfx artifacts seem to be only in non-french troops  Allez! Tuez les numeros Uns! isn't motivating my troops however.
