Ok,im at my parents house as i often am,i have Men of War assault squad on my laptop,aswell as my tower,but i used the men of war 1.11.3 men of war.exe to start the 1 player skirmish mode on the laptop as i have not downloaded men of war for the laptop,& all worked fine.
But since i downloaded & installed patch 1.50 for assault squad it will no longer boot up on single player,so how do you do it on single player now guys,any clue. :punkr:
P.S.More importantly does it still work 1 player skirmish mode with MOW 1.17.5.exe. :beer:

Hmm, well the copy protection files changed, so it won't run on 1.17.5 unless you copy in those files too:
protect.dll
protect.exe
protect.x86
The best thing will be to have 2 installations of MoW:AS and install the MoW patch in the one you want to use for Singleplayer gaming.
We wish to change coop so you can launch it alone, however it depends on some factors we can't influence, so I can't say when this will happen. :(

Couldnt you send me the 1.40 exe instinct so i can play the skirmish,as if i go online it wont let me play skirmish on my own,& it's rare i find anyone online to play that mode with nowadays. :beer:

Thats kinda weird...
I have a standalone version + Steam version of Men of War.
Steam didnt patched up to 1.17.5 yet so i installed the patch to the Standalone...But there arent any files you mentioned @Instinct
Oh geez i wanna play Skirmish again :(

Ok,downloaded the 1.17.5 multiplayer only patch,installed it(it worked without game unlike full 1.17.5 patch),next put files you said in onlong with the mow.exe,result same as before.This is what i get -
'cant open pak-1.pat (eiostreamzip.cpp, 155)
main
product_name-v1.17.0-mp
unknown'
Also of course cant run the multiplayer assault squad either without rerunning instalation as i changed the protection.
:pang:
By the way why did you at DMS changed the protection thing anyhow,so as to create this problem,if i may ask. :blabla:
same problem here, I have copyed over the protection files but still it does not work, will there be a fix for this soon as I have never been able to get a multi player game going and the only way I can play is skirmish.

Well, I see, we have encrypted the game resources of MoW:AS last version because a Russian modder has leaked the files and provoked us several times in the past. That's why it won't work with any other executable than the one we have provided in the update.
Sorry for the confusion.
We will think of a solution how to enable singleplayer for you guys.

What timezone are you in? It can't be that hard to find a game with someone?

Just host during the evening, there's plenty of people online and it shouldn't be a problem to get several for a skirm. Otherwise just ask on Xfire.
Ok downloaded the new patch, no need to swap exe's any more works fine, thx.
