The synch bug has been squashed?  Let the straffing of American PT boats begin!

Hi Don,

Out of interest, are you using that old map style due to lethargy or preference?

Andrew


How forgetful of me not to have added a big thanks to the WitP team for the new patch as well:

Thanks!!

Now that is something I've never seen before! Did your 27 planes arrive safely at the destination??

Yes - a combination of lethargy and preference. I've made some changes to my copy of the map and am loath to redo them. Also, I am used to this version and you know how us old farts hate change.

"Item 17 - Restructure end-of-turn processing for efficiency"

I had bought and played the original 'Pac War,' loved it.  Uncommon Valour, ditto.

War in the Pacific was a no brainer, or so I thought.

I bought it and tried to play it, only to be put off by the processing time between turns.   I figured with an AMD XP2400 processor and a gig of ram (at the time I purchased the game), a 2D strategy title, even one this detailed, shouldn't take 'forever and a day' for a turn to process.  Call me funny, but this has always been a game breaker for me with this title (I am a single player strategy/war gamer and am not one for PBEM games).

I am hoping that now that they have finally addressed this issue, the programmers have removed, for me, the single worst aspect of this title.  I eagerly await downloading this patch and getting through a turn without my hair turning grey. *crosses fingers*

Yes, you have a noble side and grabbed the regimental colours and charged forward. I lost a contact lens and wandered around the battlefield in a confused daze.

If you go back and re-name your sound folder to NOSOUND, I bet that will speed things up a bunch. I had to do that on my old 800mhz computer when it first came out. It has something to do with the sound codex's they are using.

I have a new rig I put together a few months back that I will be re-installing the game onto. (x2 3800, 2 gigs of ram, etc) I cannot recall if I had tried this fix or not at the time. However, I was lead to believe this issue (at least in my case) was not a result of my soundcard (I was using a Soundblaster Live at the time with the latest drivers).

Anyhoo, I don't wish to monopolize this thread with my own sad hardware stories I will install and try it with and without the sound and see how it goes.

Much appreciated!

Excellent work guys! #35, 50, 63 and OF COURSE 69 are all awesome!

But the one close to my heart is
quote:

Item 21 - Correct processing for floatplane groups on submarines.

The routine that handles aircraft on ships first determines the type of ship. Different processing is used for Airgroups on carriers, Float Plane airgroups on BB, cru, CS, AV, ML, and PG, and Airgroups on AK (as cargo). Submarines were not properly processed since V1.8.0.1. Added submarines to list of float plane ships.

the need for speed is an odd thing at times.

I'm starting to enjoy SP:WAW alot more slowed down so that i can actually read the msgs properly even if it does make the bigger battles take a long time. I had to finally ask myself..."whats my hurry to get to the end of the battle? Isn't the battle the fun part? Is there a marching band at the end of the battle? Or Patton ready to either pin a medal on me if i win or slap me across the face with a glove if i lose?



(ok i do understand the desire for speed during the AI planning phase....and am blessed in that department)
