We've uploaded the Beta version of the 1.04 Comprehensive Update available to 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. See the change list list below for details.

You can download this as a Registered Download as long as you have registered your John Tiller's Campaign Series serial number in our Members Club (click on the MEMBERS link in the top nav bar).

Change List:
• New Features/Enhancements
o All – Assault Rules have been enhanced and are now Optional.
o All – Visibility Rules have been enhanced and are now Optional.
o All – Graphic glitches were corrected
o All – Reinforcement numbers were increased for Dynamic Campaign Games.
o All – Revisions of Order of Battle where issues were found. Thank you Richard, Gary and Arkady.
o All – Platoon files were updated for consistency.
o All – Weapon files were updated for consistency.
o All – Unittext files were updated.
o West Front – Dutch Order of Battle has had a huge update. The Order of Battle additions are primarily relevant for 1939 and 1940.
o West Front – A few of Huib’s scenarios were updated utilizing the new Dutch Order of Battles.
o Rising Sun – A series of Curt Cabbage’s scenarios have been added. They can be identified by the scenario BMP with the notation: “Cabbage Collection”.

• Fixes
o East Front – Encounters file was corrected and updated. Thank you, Richard.

It's there. Go to my games -John Tillers Campaign series - Private downloads.

Not sure if I should download or wait untill the official release ?



MartNick -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 5:45:35 PM)

Hi Greg

Thanks for making this available.

Will there be any difference between this beta patch and the final public release, that would need me to download it again?

The more people who download and playtest the enhanced assault and visibility rules the sooner we will see the final version.

If all goes well, as I believe it will, no. There shouldn't be any difference.

Of course, I've been wrong before.

MartNick -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 6:01:07 PM)

If possible can a note be added to the Public Release message on the forum to let us know if we need to download again from the beta patch.

I've dl'd and installed and am off to give it a whirl [:)]

Many thanks to Jason, Matrix and the Beta Brigade for all the hard work.






Jason Petho -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 6:02:37 PM)

Remember the new assault rules are OPTIONAL, you will have to CHECK THEM ON in order for them to work.

As with the existing Optional Rules, once you turn it on, it will default to be on for all your new games.

Matto -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 6:46:56 PM)

Old battles will work ?



Jason Petho -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 6:49:34 PM)

Old battles should be finished prior to installing the 1.04 UPDATE. The default for the 1.04 UPDATE is that existing PBEM games will revert to the OLD pre 1.03 assault rules.

Matto -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 6:58:10 PM)

OK, thanks

Just finished downloading the 1.04 beta.....I am drooling....thanks guys...Jason, Rich, Arkady, et al who did the work for this thing. I know it is appreciated by the entire community.

Now I have the entire weekend to explore 1.04 [sm=00000613.gif].

Will keep you posted...that is...if i ever come back!!! [:D]

Ohhh...BTW guys...where do you want the slave girls and the beer sent?



jchastain -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 11:24:39 PM)

At some point, can someone provide an overview of what the difference is between the optional and default assault rules?  Or is that explained somewhere within the patch documentation?  In choosing whether or not to use the default rules, it would be great to have some understanding of the implications and unlike something such as "armor facing rules" that is fairly obvious in terms of impact, enhanced assault rules is highly vague.



Jason Petho -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/22/2008 11:41:05 PM)

Look in the Manuals folder, there is a document that explains the enhanced assault rules.

I think the poor ftp server has fallen over under the strain - no response.

edit: turned out to be a browser/ftp compatibility issue, downloading now....

cheers



TAIL GUNNER -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 2:15:43 AM)

Must be some road-block between you and Ozz-land.....

I just downloaded it in about 15 mins.[:'(]

Rick white -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 10:18:05 AM)

I am having a problem downloading also. The ftp keeps timing out. How did you fix the compatibility issue?



Noypi53 -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 12:30:34 PM)

I'm having the same problem as Rick White.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Noypi53



e_barkmann -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 1:32:53 PM)

I was using Opera. I cut and paste the direct link into MSIE and it decided to work for me...



wargamerjack -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 2:37:10 PM)

I understand that there are suppose 2 version of patch ...1 for the full update of 1.04 and another to patch from 1.03 - 1.04 , so that for those who want to patch 1.03 - 1.04 need not to d/l full 225MB patch 



Noypi53 -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 2:42:37 PM)

Thanks Chris for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work for me. I guess I'll have to wait til Monday to download at the office.

Rick white -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 3:39:51 PM)

Thank you Chris Merchant, for your reply. I managed to download it using Star Downloader. It lost the server connection a couple times, so it took awhile, but I got the whole patch.



dgk196 -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/23/2008 7:56:31 PM)

Available? Not from where I sit.......

I can log on to the forums, but not the 'members' site! Yes, I 'joined', for the last 'upgrade'!

I'll just wait for the 'general' posting!

Dennis [:)]



Miamieagle -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/24/2008 3:00:05 AM)

Where is the location where I can get find Patch 104 please?

For the life of me I cannot find it!



sztartur2 -> RE: John Tiller's Campaign Series 1.04 Public Beta Patch Avalible. (8/24/2008 11:51:07 AM)

If I have version 1.2 can I skip the installation of V1.03 if I downloaded the 2MB V1.04 patch?

Artur.
