Is there a patch that will allow us to play the various games without the CD installed? 2nd.Lt.Drex Ringbloom, Cmdr,Westphalishes kavallerieregiment, 2nd Kavallerie-brigade, Reserve Cavalry,I corps Prussische Armee |

No... but you can set up one CD to contain essential files that would allow you to not have the originalk cd's in the drives. <center> </center> <center> [img]</center> <center>Monsieur le Marechal Baron John Corbin Commanding L'Armee du Rhin Grande Duc de Piave et Comte de Beauvais Commanding the Division de Cavalerie de la Moyenne Garde NWC President</center> |

IMO, A simpler method is: 1. Make a new folder named C:\HPS_disk. 2. Copy each HPS and BG game folder into that folder. 3. Delete ALL sub-folders for each game. 4. Delete ALL files in the main game folder you copied over, EXCEPT any ??????. EXE file. So, for most games you will have a game folder, like Campaign Waterloo four files in it. 5. Copy all folders to a CDROM. Do not copy the folder C:\HPS_disk. Do not rename any of the game folders. 6. Play away and never have to swap disks. All my HPS/BG games were installed using the TYPICAL install and I can play the music, have the sound effects work without problems. Once you have this system setup, ANY new HPS game can be added the same way and ADDED to your CDROM. OR you can simply burn an entire new CDROM. <b><font color="gold">Ernie Sands General, 1ère Brigade, 19ème Division, VI Corps, L'Armee du Rhin President, Colonial Campaign Club </b></font id="gold"> |

Ernie's method is the simplest, and doesn't take up disk space on your hard drive. Maréchal Hamilton, Duc de Barbancon 21st Division VII Corps, ADR 1er Regiment Garde Fusiler-Grenadiers

Has anyone else had problems getting scenarios to play in Napoleon's Russian Campaign using this method? I can get the campaign started but when I try to start a scenario I am asked to insert the CD. Lt. General Sir Mark Nelms K.G. 1st Regiment of Foot Guards |

Ernie..using your method...what happens each time an update is released? Do I have to first update that game and then burn an all new updated CD? Lt. Tom Bridges 5/3e Artillerie à Cheval 1er Corps, Artillerie du Reserve AdN |
