Good idea schrecken
Thanks to DampSquib (much appreciated) for spending a lot of time testing ... it seems the problem is with the "CCImages.pix" file.
Connected fine with all other files manually installed ... but only went to the main screen when the "CCImages.pix" file was put in.
I'm not sure what could be causing the problem ... will have to look into it
Thanks again DampSquib

Just uploaded firefox's AOVetBoB for WaR
if you want to try it out
www.closecombatwar.com/utils/AOVetBoB103_for_WaR.exe
Note that this mod will only work with official releases not Beta patches 4.50.07b is recommended
Also give it a run on GameRanger if you have the chance.

is 4.50.10b a beta patch?
I'm always confused with the 'b' at the end... :roll:

Well, way back when 4.50.07b was released there was no such thing as a beta patch... it was just the second minor in house tweak on 4.50.07.
It has only been lately (12 months) that BETA patches have been released publicly and 4.50.10b is one of those public BETA patches
It's Called CloseCombatWachtamRhein-Update-v45010b-Beta.exe
management seems to have decided that releasing untested files is the way forward with the Close Combat series.

No instructions have come with the 10b patch.
I think you will need a new full install and patch to 4.50.07b

It would be best to reinstall.
A later patch, especially if it adds features, may have introduced data changes (columns and or rows) that only the newest exe is compatible with....

Had to manually navigate to MP screen and enter IP etc after Game launched to Main Screen.

I have just made a new version of AOVetBOB that is compaible with all versions of WaR.... irrespective of patch version installed.
Needs testing to see whether a 4.50.07b install can play H2h v 4.50.10b
i think it will work like a charm.

Can't it be made to just load the game and NOT have to do a song and dance to play?
And what will be the norm for loading Mods?
Modswap or bernards Mod Installer?

Depends on how you play and what is important to you....
Modswap - version of mods will allow you to play on Gameranger with the game auto starting with a mod installed but you will not be able to play the original game or multiple mods at the same time.
ModInstaller - will allow you to run the original games or mods based on the short cut you use to start as they are installed at the same time but you will not be able to auto connecting mods using Gameranger.
