Error when exiting QC

[Von Paulus]

When I exit Quick Combat by choosing End Mission option I get an error in OFFManger:

Error Advancing Time(TimeAdvanced).

Is there any solution?

 

Thank you.

Sorry I forgot to mention, I'm running on a XP SP3.

 

Thanks.

May need to delete that pilot and recreate a new one. If not send your order# and full details to

support

@overflandersfields.com

and we'll try to help.

Thanks Polovski for answering.

I've already deleted the pilot and installed it in another OS , but the problem persists sometimes.

Anyway it's not so important, I can live with this.

But I'll try to test further and then properly report.

Thanks

Could be the language of the OS, if you have a non English XP then see the FAQ

So it seems. Even if I've all my OS are in English, the regional settings are obviously set to my country.

So I decided to change all the regional settings into English and never happened again.

Now I have to look which one is causing the error. I bet it's the decimal point.

Thanks Polowski. Great game and great support.

Von Paulus,

 

I'm guessing you're right. I read here (somewhere) that using a comma as a decimal point causes problems, and this might be a common practice in Europe. Don't know if the search function problem is fixed on this forum yet, so it might take a bit of digging around. Try changing that first, see if it works. Good luck with your problem.

Yes it was the comma that was causing the error.

Thank you all.

Hi

 

I had the same problem and changing from comma to point solved the problem!

 

I think it would be a good idea adding this information to the FAQ.

The solution is already in there but the "error advancing time" is not mentioned.

 

 

Cheers

Indeed if I get time I'll mention it, but the information regarding changing the , and . on none English systems is clearly mentioned in known issues and the FAQ is rather huge :/.

So....what you're saying in essence, is size really does matter?

 

Cheers,

Lol Parky. In this case for sure, it's HUUUUGGE :)

 

Still I added a little about that Q39 so now it's even bigger aarg.
