Corrections:
Resolution bug: under win98 with a gf3 FX If you choose a higher resolution than 1024 x 768, the mouse pointer appears in double. The consequence is that neither campaign nor scenario can be started. This problem does not concern lower resolution. With the mouse pointer being duplicated, you can no longer use the "Start" nor the "Back" button. Only the tutorial can be played normally - Corrected
Multiplayer desync: after 3 games desynchronisation occured. Corrected
Mount: sometimes when you were trying to mount into an apc, both the apc and the mounted unit were getting stuck and unsuable (testable on mission 8). Corrected
Platoon Easy Mod:
Monte Cristo and Digital Reality are pleased to bring you a mod for Platoon. This mod features a number of changes in the gameplay that allow you to experience the game in a totally new way, and respond to a number of requests that the community has expressed.

This mod features a number of changes in the gameplay that allow you to experience the game in a totally new way, and respond to a number of requests that the community has expressed. This modification makes the game easier in two ways: It allows you to save the game within missions, and allows the soldiers to respond to enemy fire by firing and taking cover without requiring you to give an explicit order
Platoon Master Update:
As well as including all previous updates, this patch will fix any problems caused from installing the Easy Mod. The main issue fixed is not being able to pass from one mission to another (especially level 8) after having saved the game at certain points.
AND MORE!
With this patch 1.4, my Russian game does not run at all, even in
compatibility mode with XP, but with exe 1.14u everything goes fine on Windows 7X64!
you can also play with this game in full/widescreen on modern os like windows 11 with DxWND. I'm more interested in the map editor. There was a website, a forum when someone posted the map editor. The comments are only available on waybackmachine...
