Hi everyone,

The new version of the 1.23 Update is now available as a Public Beta via our Members Club While we do final testing we figured we'd offer you a change to get it early as well. This is still a beta, but it's stable and solid as far as we can tell. Barring any major issues being found, this will become the official update.

You can download this as a Registered Download as long as you have registered your Guns of August serial number in our Members Club (click on the MEMBERS link in the top nav bar).

Change list for 1.23
1. Fixes the surrender issues that have been mentioned including the City Ownership bug in Conquered countries
2. Adds an ini file (in the same folder as the exe) that records your opening screen choices so that things like Screen Res don't have to be set each and every time.
3. Made some AI improvements to R&D decisions and HQ Activations (making the AI a little more aggressive).
4. Changed the Political display so that some information on countries not leaning to the player's side is shown. Sort of an in-between to full knowledge and no knowledge of when an enemy is going to enter the war.
5. Made control of Alexandria and Cairo necessary for Britain to receive the Eastern Med resources. If only 1 of the cities is held the British receive only 1 resource.
6. Setup Screen for Romanian, Greek and Italian variants fixed

Just thought you ought to know -

I installed GoA1.23 beta, and now I get this error every time I start up.

I reinstalled the entire game, and reinstalled all prior patches - twice!

Result same.

Is this still occurring Big B?

Looks like its crashing just as its loading... the screen hasn't even come up yet. Off the top of my head I can't think of why that would occur unless it was a sound problem when initializing.

It seems to only happen if I choose the 1917 scenario - it will still play, but I always get that error message when starting that scenario...and not the other three.

Don't know why it does that...but I thought maybe posting the error code may mean something to you.

Oh okay, its after scenario selection then obviously. Will see if I can find what might cause that.

Hi Frank. As I tend to always start at 1914, I never saw that error. However, I've just noticed the 1917 "Trench" error too. It doesn't seem to matter whether the game is set to 'Original' or 'Alternate' or whether it is set for 'Sound' or 'No Sound'. Don't know if that's a hinderance to narrowing down the problem. But as Big B says, the game still works

Cheers

I found it, its the hex north of Trabizon near the Caucasus front. Somehow a data error snuck in on that hex in this last version. Will fix that asap.
