Rekm41 -> Bios (5/2/2015 3:39:06 PM)
I must be missing something but where do you click to get the bios of units/officers that have *'s?

ericbabe -> RE: Bios (5/2/2015 4:13:53 PM)
For officers that have the BIO tag on their portraits you can right-click on the portrait to open the bio.

Rekm41 -> RE: Bios (5/2/2015 4:48:56 PM)
That does not seem to be working for me. I have tried both portraits both right and clicking.

ericbabe -> RE: Bios (5/3/2015 5:12:38 PM)
That's unusual. Is anyone else having this problem with the commander biographies? Which commanders have you tried this with?

LuckyJim1010 -> RE: Bios (5/4/2015 6:58:23 PM)
I am seeing it too. This chap's bio does not appear. His commander does. [image]local://upfiles/35552/89B9485AACFE4E4683E7F3A80462DADE.jpg[/image]

ericbabe -> RE: Bios (5/4/2015 6:59:31 PM)
Which scenario is that? I'll see whether I can duplicate this.

Gil R. -> RE: Bios (5/8/2015 12:52:04 AM)
Knowing the scenario would help. I suspect that this is an additional problem caused by something I did in the Williamsburg OOB files involving arrival times for reinforcements, which has been fixed in 1.03. So if anyone sees this AFTER installing 1.03 please report it. Otherwise, I'm going to assume that I fixed the missing bios problem just as inadvertently as I (may have) caused it!

LuckyJim1010 -> RE: Bios (5/8/2015 10:22:54 AM)
Sorry I cannot recall which scenario I loaded.

LuckyJim1010 -> RE: Bios (5/8/2015 3:07:28 PM)
Well this is strange. The scenario I loaded was the 1st Manassas standard scenario. However now NO Bio's are appearing on right mouse click on any scenario Playing with th 1.03 patch

Gil R. -> RE: Bios (5/8/2015 6:08:23 PM)
Is anyone else using 1.03 seeing this issue (but was not having it in previous versions)?

LuckyJim1010 -> RE: Bios (5/12/2015 5:11:05 AM)
Well this is even stranger. A reboot of my laptop (Win 8.1) and now the Bios are all appearing.

Chromey -> RE: Bios (5/13/2015 4:31:11 AM)
there some officers that the bio doesnt show up when I click on their pikture.

Gil R. -> RE: Bios (5/14/2015 5:16:19 PM)
Aceous, just to be sure, these are guys who should have a bio, but it's not showing up?

barkhorn45 -> RE: Bios (5/15/2015 6:07:55 PM)
Running latest 1.04b patch and bio's don't show.I was able to view Keye's bio in Williamsburg scen.once. Just checked and it's only the Williamsburg scen.displaying this behavior.

barkhorn45 -> RE: Bios (5/17/2015 1:40:42 AM)
Update now no bio's for any scen.

Gil R. -> RE: Bios (5/18/2015 5:56:01 AM)
So how widespread is this problem? I can't tell if the lack of "Yeah, I'm seeing this too" posts means others aren't seeing it too, or simply have nothing to add regarding the matter.

zakblood -> RE: Bios (5/18/2015 6:13:43 AM)
i haven't as yet seen the issue tbh, but to be truthful don't really use the bio info so will look more closes today and get back and reply properly

LuckyJim1010 -> RE: Bios (5/18/2015 12:58:48 PM)
Just an update from me. The Bios seem to work fine for a while then they just stop popping up. If I restart the game that fixes it for a bit. Any scenario, doesn't seem to be related to a particular one. Windows 8.1, 8 Gig RAM i5 laptop. Really sorry cant be more helpful.

AlessandroD -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 9:47:06 AM)
I'm playing the Mill Springs Standard Scenario (PBEM game) as CSA and the BIOs don't work.

zakblood -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 2:28:21 PM)
select the commander you want to view, then once it's been highlighted, right click on the bio you wish to have shown, on some zoom levels for some reason it doesn't always work, but by altering the zoom level which makes you right click more accurate it does, well it has for me, and i've checked all battles, but not all missions etc as yet but so far only found one to be missing, which will be fixed asap. if you can check it will help, as i don't think it's a bio issue, just a right click zoom one imo, but then again could be wrong, it wont be the first or last time either tbh[;)] please check and let us know, as i can't reproduce the error at all, but have noticed on max zoom on and max zoom in it's harder to select and show, but a slight zoom either way fixes it for me at least...

zakblood -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 2:30:47 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: RedComet I'm playing the Mill Springs Standard Scenario (PBEM game) as CSA and the BIOs don't work. can confirm mill springs and Williamsburg & Wilson creek standard doesn't work so that's one to fix all bio's in so either something in the patch of code has stopped this is the latest beta patches, but will be sorted and fixed..

Moltke71 -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 2:43:06 PM)
I'm playing Williamsburg standard. I can get Longstreet's bio but not Anderson's even when selected.

zakblood -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 3:11:08 PM)
now members are saying which ones aren't, when they all did before, it won't hopefully take long to fix, all worked on release, so maybe a bad patch somewhere or a line in the code missed, i'm sure they will fix it soon enough as they are a great team working on it

Moltke71 -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 3:34:59 PM)
I checked all the BGs in Williamsbuurg standard. The only Confederates missing were Anderson, Stuart and Colston. However, none of the Union commanders had bios.

ericbabe -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 4:08:27 PM)
It seems the game is incorrectly showing the BIO tag for some generals who don't actually have biographical data. I'm testing a fix for it.

Moltke71 -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 4:17:05 PM)
Here's the commanders from Wilson's Creek that are marcked for bios but don't have them: Sturgis Du Bois Sweeny McIntosh Pearce McBride Rains Weightman Cawthon

ericbabe -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 4:33:27 PM)
Thank you. I hope we'll have this all sorted out by the next update.

Moltke71 -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 5:07:40 PM)
Some things in Union Manasas are odd: Hunter Porter's bio shows Hunter's Burnside shows Hunter's Hentzleman shows McDowel's Franklin shows Hentzlman's Only Holmes is missing for the South

Moltke71 -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 5:44:49 PM)
Bear in mind I've only checked the blued names in the rosters Mills Spring - Union Thomas Carter Confederate Crittenden Carroll

Gil R. -> RE: Bios (5/19/2015 6:00:08 PM)
Thanks for the additional reports. In the next few days there will be a new beta patch that should fix this, so please do not trouble yourselves with further reports about missing bios.
