I took Paris, and at the end of the turn, after the conquest phase, nothing happened with Vichy. I was not asked to create or not Vichy France. A new turn simply started...

I assume that USA is not at war with German, yet, as will prevent Vichy.

I recall some Vichy related fixes in the last few versions, so something might have been undone.

Status: offline 		This bug is known. Here comes a somewhat difficult work around.

First: downgrade your game to version 2.7.5.0 by copying the MWIF file in that patch into the program. After that, change your gamesave file with notepad (using windows) and change the version number of the gamesave back to 2.7.5.0 (this is the first number given in the gamesave when you've opened it in notepad).

Than you start the game using version 2.7.5.0 normally and create Vichy. When all Vichy phases are completed, save the game again. If you than put the patch you were using back into the game, you can continue the game normally.
