staindaddict, I did change where the dlls are located but it has been working fine for me.

Try a couple things for me if you don't mind.

First open the Lib folder directly inside the Tactical Battle 1.12 folder.
Does it contain a file called Noesis.Javascript.dll?

If so then try downloading vcredist_x86.exe from Microsoft and installing it.
You can download it here:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/ … st_x86.exe

If it does not, then check to see if a file called Environment.dat exists in your Tactical Battle 1.12 folder and let me know.

Oh, one other thing.  I'm assuming you're unzipping the latest game and trying to run it, but not copying it over the old folder.
If you are copying over an old folder try running the game fresh from it's own unzipped folder.

Sorry for the hassle.

yes, there is a user guide. You can press f1 in the game to ope it up.

I'm still getting this error upon trying to run the game with the new download of 1.12.1:

Going to try the other things you mentioned now.

Great, glad to hear it's working and good to know what fixed it.

This is turning out to be pretty awesome,despite me not beeing able to finish more then a few newbie campaignes.
The best one I like so far is the Starship battles. Haven't even finished the training simulator
I did think of makeing a campaigne with some old historicle battles,but I need to learn the map and the terrain. It won't be historicley correct,even if I get the time to try and make something.
Off to try the gal fleet,and my hand at the starship battles again. any tips or tricks wouldn't be unwelcome. hint hint.
edit:
The Gal fleet doesn't work with the latest version. Just in case someone wants to give it a go.
The error I get is

Grryf.

ahoy all
If the second training mission is the one with the 2 ships to fight against,it was quite easy. because of course, one of the ships exploded on their own.... . must be that the crew mutinied and the captain inishiated  self-destruct.
Off to try the other missions although I haven't finished the first training mission yet. it'd be fun if the other missions were locked,a bit of fun,and a bit of frustration.
grryf.

ahoy there truecraig
the only missions I have not completed would be the introduction to the simulator ,training mission 2,and the one where we get ambushed by those awesome guys who have those heavy fusion weapons.
I almost got the qube or the borg 2 times,but didn't manage it quite right.
Out of all the other maps,I like this one the most,and I wouldn't mind something else,featureing a few coasts.
old navel battles should be quite interesting to play....
Grryf.

place the folders that contain the maps into the place where you extracted tb\data for tb\map packs folder.

i have placed the maps in the mappacks folder, but for some reason the game still doesn't recognize them. do i have to cop and paste? Or extract, and how do i extract if this is the case. thanks

guitarman, the zombie house map will end after 30 rounds. Or it is supposed to anyway, I haven't had enogh patience to take it that far.

there are items in the various rooms of the house that you can use, like there's an archery bow and a gun for ranged attacks. There's also a couple close-range weapons for the unarmed survivors to grab, reserves for the knives for charlie, ammo for the police officers' guns, and a couple other things.

hi, will tactical battle still be develloped? there hasn't been an update for a long time.
