Status: offline 		Great, like I said LOS/FOW processing up to 50% - depending on specific situation. So I’m some cases it could be around 40% in some cases it could be up to 50% ;) Also, this processing also depends on what your OS is doing, so you might want to test a case few times and then you can come up with average average number.

Apart from that: I would like to report problems in map scrolling. The input keys are completely unresponsive when trying to scroll the map. Sometimes there is no reaction at all, at other times the keypress 'overshoots' and the map scrolls in one time several hexes distance. It's very hard to make the map scroll the way you would expect it to be.
And yes, I tried it on different setups, with different graphics cards.

You need to unzip the exe-file and then paste it into the Tigers on the Hunt folder replacing the existing Tigers on the Hunt.exe file.

This is more likely to be you CPU being the problem. Try to free up CPU resources. I use Razer Cortex on my Laptop and it helps me a lot. I know others also has been helped by using this free program

I have a quad core current-gen i7, 16GB of ram. There is absolutely no sign of excessive cpu usage while the game runs. Apart from that: bitmap scrolling + overlays is something that can be done smooth on a pentium3. Commodore Amiga

Also: the machine I play on is more than capable of handling huge image files. I use the same machine for GIS work, sometimes working with several geotiff files of more than 1GB each. Never a problem scrolling and zooming those.

Status: offline 		Looks like SW MG's have lost their ability in version .21 to final fire after First Fire during enemy's movement. Have experienced in a couple of different scenarios now that after being labeled with First Fire, LMG, MMG and HMG invoke a prompt saying the weapon is marked with Final Fire and no longer eligible to fire again when, of course it's not. This was against moving units, either the same, expending more than 1MP in LOS or different moving units where, normally we should be able to fire the MG at least twice (First and then Final Fire). Their owner units are not limited and other ordnance, SW's seem unaffected. Haven't had the chance to see if they are similarly restricted in cases of FPF (Final Protective Fire)

The LOS Quality has to be saved in the saved game file so I had to modify the saved game file format, this means you won't be able to load old saved game files...sorry.

If you're gonna break the save file format anyways, can't you avoid this type of problem in the future by switching over to a serialization library which outputs structured binary data and can easily deal with an extra field or missing field (just use default value) when deserializing?
i.e. Protocol Buffers 3: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3 (every field is optional in protobuf v3)
or perhaps Cap'n Proto: https://capnproto.org/cxx.html, by the author of the previous version of protobuf.

(Protobuf even supports an alternate output to plain JSON, which can be useful for debugging purposes.)

Not saying it would be trivial, but since protobuf can generate your C++ classes for you based on your message/file definition a part of the grunt work is automated.

Status: offline 		I have obtained TotH recently along with the two modules. Current version is 1.1.09. Thread shows a version of 1.1.21 which I have downloaded but not installed. What steps and files do I do/use to get from 1.1.09 to 1.1.21? I have been looking but not finding this information.

With 1.1.09, the game goes into a non-responsive mode with the two modules.

Looking forward to receiving guidance,

Bill

Maybe Peter's previous fix to 2560 x 1600 might work. Maybe the latest version is not being used?

Just saying...

Status: offline 		Peter, Paullus:

Had to reinstall the game on a new machine, but the 1.1.21 update is not installing. I get an error that it can't find the file: audiere.dll

Is that available elsewhere, that I can just copy/paste from, or is it more complicated than that? For now, I'm stuck with 1.1.09


**Given that we're well beyond the release of this 'beta' update6 without any real problems noted, can we just make this the next official update that can be updated from the splash screen?

[BUG] Enemy defensive fired twice during friendly movem... - 9/19/2021 2:27:56 PM

Status: offline 		Game version is 1.1.21.

Scenario is Retaking Vierville (adapted from ASL S1) posted in the scenario thread.

As shown in the screenshot, the german personel squad got defensively fired twice by the same american airbrone (without any sw) squad just in one segment. And that american personel squad is even pinned in the last segment.

Edit: Sorry I didn't read the rules about residual firepower. It seems like the german squad is still affected by the residual firepower when they moved off the hex, in which the american squad left a residual firepower. So the residual firepower not only affect the unit moves into that hex, but also unit moves off the hex?

The rules in ASL do state that "A unit expending MF/ MP to leave a Location is not subject to Residual FP attack in the Location it is leaving". Nor did the moving german squad satisfy the condition to be subsequently fired, cuz its not the closest target to that american squad. So I wonder what was going on here in this instance?

Status: offline 		As repeatedly stated, TOTH is not a 100% clone of ASL. Peter will undoubtedly be more knowledgeable about the game mechanics, but I think the American squad simply made a first fire and then a subsequent fire on the FJ squad because of the relative high chance of inflicting casualties, without taking into account whether it was the closest unit or not.
