Patch 1.04 für Napoleon's Campaigns geht in die public Beta: http://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest ... ta-rc1.zip

THIS PATCH DOES NOT WORKS FOR THE 1.00 VERSION, if you have not installed
the Foundation Patch before.
==============================================================================


==============================================================================
Napoleon's Campaigns Patch 1.04 beta / May, 2008
==============================================================================

==============================================================================
Bugs
==============================================================================
- fixed: Naval Combat had a bug on cohesion.
- fixed: lone artillery could be redeployed.
- fixed: a rare bug where a ZIP gamefile would not be recognized correctly.
- fixed: Partisans units were not shown in the Unit List (Ledger page F1)
- fixed: a bug of password querying.

==============================================================================
Gameplay
==============================================================================
- When a depot or village is burned, supply is reduced to the stock needed for one turn of supply (of the units present in the region).
- changed: Generals being discharged from army command, or bypassed by another general when an army is formed will now lose 1 to 4 seniority ranks.
- added: Divisions can now replace whole lost elements.
- Fatigue and losses of men both from movements and standing attrition revised. Historical Attrition should be less harsh. Attrition from movements is higher in bad weather, but is less important from enemy territory.All parameters have been exported into a new option file for modders. See the modding forum for further instructions.
- Various adjustments in the database.
- March to the Sound of Guns improvements: a corps can intervene once per day maximum, and 1 cohesion point / day of 'virtual' march is lost doing so.
- changed: movement speed now takes the slowed element within an unit.
- changed: Seniority changes are now 50% faster (in good ... or bad)
- Units in a structure are always considered as being passive for Cohesion recovery (netting a +2 per day overall, +1 from Passive, +1 from Structure). Reminder,if besieged, you lose -1.5 though.

==============================================================================
Scenarios & events
==============================================================================

- Many typos fixed in events.
- Some events were not translated in their game text.

- PW scenario:
- Cintra event fixed.
- Tweak on Joseph arrival and Murat departure.
- Napoleon now arrives in October, when the Erfurt treaty was signed.
- GuardRemove1809 event was broken.
- str1808CampaignBackground1 shortened for the French version only.

- 1809 scenario
- Fixed a bug with the Kroat uprising.

==============================================================================
Database
==============================================================================
- Guards Lancers are no more heavy cavalry
- French Carabiniers are now heavy cavalry.
- Combat signature variable added. Cavalry should be less targeted before closing for the charge.
- HorsePerHit and GunsPerHit added, for a better battle report.

==============================================================================
AI
==============================================================================
- AI: Better decision making for standing outside or inside structures.
- AI: AI can now burn depots in very hostile areas.
- AI improvement: AI is more clever in the use of Army HQ.

==============================================================================
Interface
==============================================================================
- The keys 'Q' and 'W' can now be used to cycle through fixed units

Patch 1.4a erschienen:

http://www.ageod.com/forums/showthread. ... #post88937

Dear player,

An update for your favorite Napoleonic Game

http://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest/NCP_Patch.zip

==============================================================================
THIS PATCH DOES NOT WORKS FOR THE 1.00 VERSION, if you have not installed
the Foundation Patch before.
==============================================================================

==============================================================================
Napoleon's Campaigns Patch 1.04a / June, 2008
==============================================================================


==============================================================================
Gameplay
==============================================================================
- Because of a large variety in size (from 500 to 4000 men!), some elements can assault with undue penalties in NCP (for example Prussian Batallion, being small, are very penalized in close combat). A normalization factor has been applied, for better historical results. Note that elements weakened always get a penalty.

==============================================================================
Scenarios & events
==============================================================================
- Improved Gibraltar defense: fortress is now level 4, with strong depot, reinforced garrison and a commander very able in fort defense...
- Cadiz improved to level 3 fortress

- Newly added Allied merchant shipping in some scenarios to provide sea supply capacity (very useful for the Brits in 1804, Anglo-Spanish in 1808-1814, but also the Russians or Swedes in respective 1812 and 1808 scenarios)

- Last but not least, included the complete leadership revision by Arnaud Bouis of all leaders abilities and values (pro-allies balancing fix)

==============================================================================
Database
==============================================================================
- Some leaders values adjusted further.


==============================================================================
AI
==============================================================================
- AI improved on several aspects (seeking the enemy, defending valuable position, resting troops).

- fixed: A (rare) crash could occurs when you detached a corps from an army.
- fixed a loophole about generals & charges. If a general is removed from command and is named to another army, he will only protest if the new army is weaker and if the other general (in charge of his previous army) has less seniority. Before, the power of the 2 armies where not checked.
- fixed an issue in the Swap general order.

- Fixed an issue with the Resume game button (shortkey: R).
- New sentry orders:
"SPACE": In sentry for one turn.
"CTRL-SPACE": In sentry until 90% healed.

Der Patch 1.6 ist da:

Dear Players,

Here is the new Napoleon's Campaigns patch. It can be very well called "Legacy Patch", but with us, you never know

Given the vast amount of modifications and improvements (not to say some bug fixes) in the code since the last patch, there is no comprehensive list. Suffice to say that the game logic is now updated to the latest, and that the AI is much more expert than one year ago (while still being an AI).

One thing to appreciate among others is that the game loads twice as fast as before also.

http://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest/NCP_Patch.zip

Modders are welcome to rework the historical data, if they believe glitches and errors exist. There is always room for improvement.



==============================================================================
THIS PATCH DOES NOT WORK FOR THE 1.00 VERSION, if you have not installed the Foundation Patch before.
==============================================================================
==============================================================================
Napoleon's Campaigns Code Patch 1.06 / October 19, 2009
==============================================================================

-----

This patch includes more than two hundreds code improvements, in both game logic and AI code.
Historical Data have not been improved since the previous patch.

Frage zum Patchen:
Habe mir das Spiel gerade frisch von Gamersgate geholt und installiert.
Version wird mir 1.03a angezeigt.

Wegen der Warnung nicht den 1.06er zu installieren ohne den Foundation Patch.... Muss ich bei der 1.03er nun noch was installieren oder ist das damit hinfällig?

Den Foundation Patch braucht man nur für die 1.0 Version. Die 1.03 könnt Ihr ganz normal mit dem 1.06er patchen.

Patch 1.07 wurde veröffentlicht:

Dear Players,

Here is the new Napoleon's Campaigns patch.

Given the vast amount of modifications and improvements (not to say some bug fixes) in the engine since the last patch, there is no comprehensive list, still a partial readme is posted below. Suffice to say that the game logic is now updated to the latest.

Points of interests, entrenchments are back in NCP. All interface windows have been retested to be sure they are working correctly.

http://ageoddl.telechargement.fr/latest/NCP_Patch.zip

Modders are welcome to rework the historical data, if they believe glitches and errors exist. There is always room for improvement, as this is mostly a code patch. Don't hesitate to publish your own mod, with proposed fixes and improvements.

If major bugs are spotted by the community, the patch will be uploaded again with the fix, but it will bears the same version. This is the latest official patch, version 1.07, period

* Entrenchments are back

AI
AI will be less aggressive (parameters exported for modding)
AI will regroup better corps with army HQ (‘flocking behavior&#8217
New AI algorithm: concentrate, can apply to all threatened stacks.
