HansBolter -> RE: Conversion Check (9/15/2014 7:45:42 PM)

Has the Washington been fixed so it is no longer a Colorado class?
I installed 1.3 but my Washington is still a Colorado....[:(]

Just DLed 1.4. Hopefully that has the fix.

Which Mod?



John 3rd -> RE: Conversion Check (9/15/2014 8:06:43 PM)

I just checked BTS 1.4. Yes--It is fixed.



Adolf Galland -> RE: Conversion Check (9/15/2014 10:10:59 PM)

have yet BTS 1.4 all your conversions not work..... and by Ra 7.2 all conversions not work. No Option for this ???
Database show the conversions.


Old original Conversions was working. (chitose CS in Chitos CVL etc...)

Kitigami cl have 21 upgrades the last in CVL Kent ???



John 3rd -> RE: Conversion Check (9/15/2014 10:13:25 PM)

This is why I Posted above for another Modder to look at...



John 3rd -> GOOD News (9/16/2014 2:46:54 PM)

I shot the files over to Juan to take a look at and he says that all the conversion are fine. The reason they don't show is due to most of them occurring AFTER the first upgrade of the ship class. Makes some sense to me.

Definite relief to see something so easy and simple to do (a bind) wasn't screwed up!



Cavalry Corp -> RE: GOOD News (9/16/2014 3:22:58 PM)

What about games that have started will these minor fixes be applied ok?



Adolf Galland -> RE: GOOD News (9/16/2014 7:23:08 PM)

THX for helping, you do a great job
But i do not see the conversion e.g. from a CL to CLAA, normal conversions are fine.

You wrote most of them, are there some where you can see it at the campain start. I do not want to play 1/2 year with no success in the end.


My config is:
Patch 07 - Unofficial Public Beta - 1123x10 updated 23

I downloaded and extracted
RA 7.2.zip
Extended_Map_Data_and_Art.zip
Cumulative Art.zip

Maybe i do not see the solution or i missed something.

A step by step instruction would be nice, i am lost now.



cohimbra -> RE: GOOD News (9/16/2014 7:45:22 PM)

Hi, I think that the step you need to follow are the same that you must follow in stock game...soooo, you must wait the upgrade start, and then you can convert to CLAA (see the example below, from stock game: when the upgrade start, you have the new conversion option). Hope this help.

Nagara can only convert after upgrading in 12/42.



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 1:14:06 AM)

Thanks Juan.

I feel that coming from Mr Juan it is GOSPEL that things are A OK!

There is a minor update being uploaded later tonight for all three Mods. Games already going should have no issue with the changes. Upload and update! Will Post here when those uploads are done.



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 5:26:25 AM)

All three Mods updated on the Web Site.



Lasarian -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 7:27:06 PM)

Japanese TOE for Location ID's 2331-3 (JNAF Air Fleet, IJA AA Rgt & IJN AA Bn) show device ID 1918 which is blank - presumably a change was made and wasn't updated here. There may be other units I haven't found as yet. Have similarly updated some blank Indian units which I presume you've already caught. Will look at an older version of RA to see if there's a clue as to what was meant to be in these units.



Lasarian -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 7:43:39 PM)

It seems the missing device is the big 88mm T99 AA Guns. Older versions of RA updated to device 1486 8.8cm/45 T99 AA so assuming this was the intended item will use this ID instead.



Lasarian -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 7:47:22 PM)

Location ID 2335 as well. Looks like two 'JNAF Air Fleet' entries, one with AA Guns, one without. Maybe this just needs a cleanup?



btd64 -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 7:50:18 PM)

Lasarian, What version are you looking at? Did you check the new version just uploaded to the RA site?....GP



Lasarian -> RE: GOOD News (9/17/2014 7:59:12 PM)

Hi GP, was looking at RA 7.2, just downloaded 7.3 (hard to keep up!) Scen 50, and the issue is still there. So presumably BTS too?

OK. Thanks for checking. I'm sure John will look at it tonight or tomarrow....GP



JuanG -> RE: GOOD News (9/18/2014 8:45:28 AM)

Device #1486 is the 'original' 8.8cm T99 AA gun. In RA 6.x series (and maybe before), Device #1918 was a copy with higher accuracy and effect. The device was not used at all in RA 6.x series.

In RA 7.x, along with BTS, Device #1918 is gone, presumably as a result of updating the devices file to the DBB standard, and its slot is empty. However, some TOEs still refer to Device #1918 while others refer to #1486 (notably TOE #2197 - IJA 8cm AA Rgt).

Therefore, the 'easiest' solution would be to clone device #1486 to #1918, which would restore it to those units that still refer to that device slot.

The more complicated but perhaps more robust solution is to change all of the references to device #1918 to instead refer to #1486 in the locations file, therefore leaving only one of these devices in the DB and making any future tweaks to it easier.

I can implement whichever of these you prefer to the latest set of files for you John, along with the fix to CM Tenryu I emailed you about.



HansBolter -> RE: GOOD News (9/18/2014 10:49:50 AM)

I installed BTS 1.4 last night but the Washington is still a Colorado.

I'll install 1.5 tonight and see if that fixes it.
It's not a game breaker as she has entered way earlier than historically and I have a pair of BCs that are as fast as cruisers.
For now the Washington is sitting in the Battle Line with the other 21 knot tubs in Pearl.



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/18/2014 1:37:32 PM)

Been busy with work and a couple of very long days. Have another today. Will take a look and get these dealt with. Juan: I am sure that device issue is through the conversion over to DB. Should have time over the weekend to clean it up but want to jump on as much as I can today and tomorrow.

Sorry for the continious updates gang. Just trying to get things clean and taken care of.



HansBolter -> RE: GOOD News (9/18/2014 3:11:47 PM)

No need to apologize John 3rd.

We are all enjoying the mod and knew there would be bugs to be worked out.



btd64 -> RE: GOOD News (9/18/2014 6:49:33 PM)

We are in a HAPPY PLACE.[sm=sign0031.gif]....GP



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/19/2014 12:15:07 AM)

OK. Home and compiling a list for work. Will Post that and go through progress as things happen.

Thanks for the thoughts guys.

Washington is fixed from earlier. If you started the game earlier (prior to the correction) then it remains as is and you get a different North Carolina Class BB. Essentially you get a 'bonus' BB! Merry Christmas...



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/19/2014 12:28:41 AM)

Work:
1. Checked BB Washington (as shown above).
2. Fixed classification of CM Tenryu Class. Also changed the upgrade and conversion dates. Seemed a bit early to me. These fixes apply to both Scenarios 045 and 055.

Moving to the TOE and Device issues...



DOCUP -> RE: GOOD News (9/19/2014 1:11:41 AM)

This was a big project John.  3 different mods gonna have some teething issues.  I think you guys did a great job.



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/19/2014 1:38:04 AM)

THANKS DOCUP. I really appreciate the comment. I fell like I am constantly having to ask WHICH scenario??!! Makes me want to pull what little hair I have out...



John 3rd -> RE: GOOD News (9/19/2014 9:50:01 PM)

Damn. What a mess.

I've finished getting RA fixed and done. Have now shifted to BTS. Just 'fixing' the missing data field and correcting a bit of other stuff that did not transfer well from original to Da Babes. No big deal or game breakers but it is tedious!

Rumor has it that it is 'date night' in this house tonight so...
