No, *you* are missing the art file. There is nothing wrong with the game. [;)]

If you look at the RealismOptions1024.bmp, you will see that yours is showing the 1.00 version without the Allied Sub Doctrine.

Please reinstall the game completely as you will be missing other files as well if this one is missing.

Hey Frag

I did a complete delete, and then a re-install of 1.0 from the CD, then used the 77mg. comprehensive patch and while it shows 1.30 I_ Do Not show_ the "Select U.S. Sub Doctrine" option on the prefs screen or anywhere else ???



Mr.Frag -> RE: User Install issue (11/6/2004 8:50:47 PM)

You have a permissions problem that is preventing the files from being copied into the art directory?

These are the art files that get replaced in 1.30 Complete:

The small patch only includes the 3 allied aircraft files and the groundunits file as all the remaining files are in the 1.20/1.21 patch already so they did not need to be included.



Black Cat -> RE: User Install issue (11/6/2004 9:13:58 PM)

ReaOpt_AldSubBT_bc.... is _not there_ in my install. All others are.

Looks like it created a BK file of ReaOpt_AldSubBT.BMP though

No indications of problems in the install.

I did not use the small install.

I did a clean install of 1.00 from the CD, then the 1.30 77.4 mg. comprehensive patch, which was supposed to include 1.20/1.21, which was where the US Sub Doctrine came in. ??



Mr.Frag -> RE: User Install issue (11/6/2004 10:28:58 PM)

If you do not see Allied Sub Doctrine beside the switch under Realism Options, for whatever reason, this art file did *not* overwrite the old one.

You can install 1.30 to a different location if you want and copy the files over by hand. You did not have the game running when you did the install or install it as a different user?

Things like that generally result in files *not* getting overwritten which results in a mess.



Black Cat -> RE: User Install issue (11/7/2004 12:51:14 AM)

Another delete and re-install and patched with 1.30 seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks Frag[:)]

This probably is whats giving the odd folks crash problems too ... not having the right artwork for the aircraft tends to be a CTD when the combat animation panel comes up.



kayjay -> RE: User Install issue (11/7/2004 5:49:38 PM)

Umm - all I did was download and install short version of 1.3 after playing the game without any problems since I bought it in June at origins. I havent touched art files or done anything other than download and install official patches.

As I understand it I need to
(1) move my saved games 'elsewhere'
(2) move all 3 downloaded patches 'elsewhere'
(3) uninstall - I do not see an uninstall.exe on either cd or /witp ? use the XP one?
(4) install from cd
(5) move pathces back and install 1.2 1.21. and 1.3 short in order
(6) move saved games back to save folder

start it up and see what I get .



EUBanana -> RE: User Install issue (11/7/2004 7:11:59 PM)

Interesting, when I patched up a fresh install of 1.3 and it was crashing constantly sometimes the image of a plane was overlaid with a black and white square block of an image of an aircraft...

but it didnt do it anymore when I axed the old sound directory. [&:][&:][&:]

how bizarre.
