Release information

IMPORTANT NOTE!

With the improved unit detection fix for issue #4, the list of units detected by
Warcab version 0.6.1 and older can be different from the list of units detected
by this version of Warcab. This means in fact that the dossier files created by
version 0.6.1 and older are no longer compatible with and they cannot be loaded
by this release.

This release fixes the following issues:

  • Fixed issue #3:
    A regression caused battle and turn losses to not be reported.

  • Fixed issue #4:
    The unit detection was not completely accurate.

  • Fixed issue #5:
    The SPWAW2016 solitaire autosave savegame could not be processed

This releases adds the following new features:

  • Saving stratmap images:
    In recognition of the support by Major Mess in fixing issues #4 and #5, I've
    decided to add a new stratmap image saving feature. This adds a button to
    the stratmap GUI that allows saving an image of the current stratmap. The
    PNG image is saved in the Warcab saves folder. Thanks to this feature it is
    no longer necessary for the Major to perform an elaborate screenshot-cut-
    paste dance just to get the stratmap in a single image file :)

Installation

To install: extract the zip file in a folder of your choice. A new warcab folder will be created there.

The application is standalone and can simply be run from inside this folder.
