Per the request Mark for his Bloody Omaha Autorun CD Release I've looked and made a number of changes/fixes to Bloody Omaha v1.01. The 41 changes/fixes, listed below, on top of the v1.01 release make up Bloody Omaha v1.2. Make sure you download IsignyBo & StPierBo maps and have them and all the original maps in the maps directory before installing Bloody Omaha v1.2 as some updated .btd, .txt and .los files will be installed by the plugin.
