Update 1.3 is LIVE now!

Hello, friend and subscribers! Today we are glad to intronduce Update 1,3 to you.

What’s very pleasant in the the update 1.3:
The lobby now has a general chat. Chat works through the official clan game Steam group chat. We also made Unicode support to texts, so different languages are displayed correctly for all players.
You can go to the profile of player you are interested in straight from the game room and the lobby.

“Invite Friend” button now works corectly.
An information icon in the lobby in the game list, with detailed information about each session is added.
Information about the number of players in the game, and the group is displayed now.
The game displays the number of tokens earned by the player. Tokens are awarded only for purchase of additional content, but in this area we have plans.
Added the localization of French missions (subtitles)

Finalization of game mechanics:
Units are now able to properly run behind the commander into the shelter.
Units are now able to be allocated on the area where the detachment moved.
Fixed crashes in co-op in the distribution of units between the players.

In the current update we paid attention to the convenience of Front-End Interface and best prepared for the introduction of the game workshop.
In this regard, the internal structure of folders of the game is changed. Therefore, to avoid a crash it is recommend to delete the content of the folder with the game completely (make sure that all the files and folders are deleted) and install the game again.

Now you can connect and disconnect the content to the basic game. To do this, the game was divided into logically complete parts (packages). Active players will be able to evaluate this new quality of the game, when they start to use the additional content of the workshop. The game is now able to detect conflicting modules that make the work of the game with connected modes more stable.
The game also learned to identify matching resources with different configurations of plug-mods, if the mod does not affect the resources used in the session. What does it gives to ordinary players? No need to unplug mods, if you want to play the original maps and missions in co-op and multiplayer.

FAQ

1. Game does not starts, shows error “termination access violation”
You need to completelly delete the game (include profile) and reinstall it.

2. Game crashes with “termination access violation” whenuploading additional maps and\or mods
On startup game checks the integrity and legality of resources, so when it detects unauthorized changes of game resources, it stops with a warning. All modes and additional maps, as well as any modifications of resources must be made in the form of a package.
We have added an example “boe1914-sample”, you can find it inside “packages” folder.
