Can't Create a Quick Battle - 2/20/2016 3:17:57 PM

I've been trying to create a random or quick battle using France vs Algeria 1957 as my parameters. I'm trying to simulate the fighting during Algeria's War of Independence. Everytime I try to set it up the game crashes with two messages stating that an Algerian OOB for battalion level can't be found. I looked at Algeria's OOB in the OOB editor and there's definitely something that could have been used. A 1957 battalion but for some reason the game doesn't see it or choose to use it. All other Algerian OOB's are dated 1962. The crashes happen with the 1.01 patch and the 1.02 beta patch. I tried both. I really wanted to match these two forces up as I've just finished reading a book about France in Algeria during that time period.

Hmm, weird, just tried it and it generated no problem?! It's a June 1957 meeting engagement, want it?

I'll take it. Guess it's something on my end. I'll reinstall and see if that works. Thanks.

Figured it out. I missed the second beta patch. Once I uninstalled the first beta and applied the new beta patch everything worked fine. Thanks again Warhorse for checking it out for me. Turned out to be on my end.
