Another update has just appeared on radar and is ready for battle!

Matrix Games and Advanced Gaming Systems (www.computerharpoon.com) are pleased to release the v3.9.4 update for their award winning naval warfare simulator, Harpoon 3: Advanced Naval Warfare. The new update includes over 50 fixes and several additions and tweaks to overall gameplay.

As was mentioned in our past few releases, the 3.9.x series of updates are aimed at improving game stability and increasing responsiveness to customer feedback, with the goal of improving the entire game experience for the Harpoon community. Matrix Games and Advanced Gaming Systems encourage Harpoon 3 fans to head to the official forums to become a part of this new initiative.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said “The community effort behind the 3.9.x series of updates is proving to be a great success. Both Advanced Gaming System and Matrix Games have been listening directly to our customers to make our product the best it can be and the latest 3.9.4 update is the latest result of that effort. We feel that it reflects a significant improvement in the Harpoon 3 ANW experience over the 3.8.x and 3.7.x series. If you haven’t given Harpoon 3 ANW a try, now is a great time to come aboard.”

Harpoon 3 – Advanced Naval Warfare is the culmination of decades of development and fan support, resulting in the most comprehensive, realistic, and accurate simulation of modern combined air and naval operations available to the gaming public. Harpoon 3 gives the player an opportunity to manage some of the most advanced air and naval assets available in the world, putting them in the middle of many historical and ‘what if’ scenarios. Players will have the chance to battle it out against a variety of enemies using technology from all of the premier naval powers of the day: Iranian Revolutionary Guard in the Persian Gulf, re-live Operation El Dorado Canyon, strike at the heart of Libya, guard the Greenland-Iceland-UK gap to stop a Soviet naval invasion of the Atlantic, or stalk unwary U.S. shipping in a Soviet Akula-class submarine.

Get the update here. This update is comprehensive and will bring any prior version of the game to version v3.9.4.

After 3.7.0 release: 80 Issues reported
After 3.8.0 Patch: (080 Issues - 34 Fixed + 88 New) = 134 Issues
After 3.9.0 Patch: (134 Issues - 31 Fixed + 68 New) = 171 Issues
After 3.9.2 Patch: (171 Issues - 15 Fixed + 35 New) = 191 Issues
After 3.9.3 Patch: (191 Issues - 19 Fixed + 15 New) = 187 Issues
After 3.9.4 Patch: (187 Issues - 42 Fixed + 68 New) = 213 Issues

A comprehensive third-party list of 213 * Known Harpoon [ANW] Issues has been exhaustively collected on HarPlonkHQ since the release of Harpoon ANW 3.7.0 Now that the 3.9.4 patch has been released, the list has been checked to see what has changed. While it is by no means definitive, it is believed that:

These 42 behaviours appear to have been resolved by the 3.9.4 patch:

  1. Cannot meet for UnRep

    Ships are unable to plot a path for UnRep when ordered to do so.

  2. Cannot rescind re-fuel order

    It is not possible to rescind air-to-air re-fueling order once it is issued.

  3. CTD on re-load

    CTD while attempting to re-load same scenario file previously opened.

  4. Delayed On-Station ViCond Faulty

    Delayed On-Station ViCond does not wait for delay time to expire before evaluating.

  5. F6 Key will not attack

    F6 Key will not attack target.

  6. Ferry Mission fails to launch

    Ferry Mission that executed properly in 3.9.0 fails to launch in 3.9.3

  7. HAWKs fire into ground

    HAWKs fire directly into the ground

  8. Helo Intercepts sub at Med Alt

    Helo Intercepts sub at Med Alt when F6 command given.

  9. Incorrect re-load count

    Planes have high number of re-loads assigned, but there are insufficient AAMs to justify this number.(Originally reported by Bart Gauvin)

  10. Multiple Edit windows opened

    Multiple Edit windows can be opened but they can't be closed.

  11. Nav Zones re-set by mission editor

    Nav Zones are re-set by mission editor every time a mission is edited.

  12. On-Station ViCond non-functional

    On-Station ViCond non-functional in GE but functional in SE.

  13. Planes cannot re-load

    Planes show zero re-loads available when AirOps [F6] button depressed. However, re-loads are available when AirOps is selected for individual hangars and runway.

  14. Planes refuse to launch

    Planes requiring Small/Med runway refuse to launch from a base equipped with Medium runways. (From Petterr)

  15. Ready display always visible

    Aircraft ready display shows all planes available at a base regardless of the Base's ability to launch them. Previously, when a base was damaged, those aircraft not able to launch (i.e. Large/VLarge planes) no longer showed up in the Ready menu until the runway was repaired.

  16. Sonobuoy mission cancels

    Sonobuoy mission cancels on its own due to inability to deploy active sonobuoy and causes all other helo sonobuoy formation patrols to revert to Minimal loadout. (Originally reported by Vincenzo Beretta)

  17. SSMs ignore delayed strike mission

    Land-based SSMs ignore delay time for Strike missions.

  18. Sub goes active on ASuW

    Sub goes active on ASuW area patrol mission even though mission setting is for EmCon.

  19. Subs activate sonar on ship strike mission

  20. Torps inoperative in shallow water

    Mk46 ASW torpedoes are inoperative in shallow water and will not release when water depth is -10m.

  21. Unarmed units not engaged

    Unarmed units will not be engaged by AI units (sub or ship) on Plotted mission. This is due to the fact that the targets pose no 'threat' to the AI unit thus elicits no response. Once weapons are added to the targets, they are immediately attacked.

  22. ViCond triggers in SP but not MP

    Damage ViCond triggers in SP but not MP.

  23. Sub stops when surfacing

    Sub rises to surface and stops. (Originally reported by Freek Schepers)

  24. Full speed over 140kts

    Ship group shows full speed of 15+131kts.

  25. Submarine control lost

    Submarine control lost when sole ship is sunk.

  26. Group speed differs from plane speed

    Air groups have different speed from individual plane speed in MP.

  27. Wrong loadout descriptions

    Helix helos are show the wrong loadout descriptions. Display is Mk44 torp, but they revert to Minimal when launched.

  28. Torpedo dives past max depth

    Target at -1200m cannot be engaged directly, but torpedoes fired on BOL will still dive below the maximum depth of their propulsion system (-500m) to kill target

  29. Torpedo dives 1000M instantly

    Torpedoes will instantly dive 1200m to hit target

  30. CTD when altitude changed

    CTD when altitude changed

  31. Torpedoes ignore cruise depth

    Torpedoes ignore cruise depth set by the database even when the "Level Cruise Flight" flag has been set and a value has been entered in the "Cruise Altitude" field. They stay at the depth at which they were fired.

  32. Active sonobuoys do not deploy

    CASS Active Sonar Sonobuoys carried by S-2 Trackers do not deploy when the "Drop Active Sonobuoy (])" hotkey is depressed. However, they do deploy with "Drop Passive Sonobuoy ([)". "," and "." hotkeys seem to work properly.

  33. Ferry mission fails to launch

    Ferry mission fails to launch unless manually ordered to do so.

  34. Passive sonobuoys will not deploy

    Passive sonobuoys will not deploy with "[" hotkey. Active sonobuoys will deploy.

  35. AI subs will not stop re-charging

    Sub never stops re-charging.

  36. CTD running new scen in SE

    CTD occurs when new scenarios are written and immediately run in SE.

  37. Unable to Pause game in MP

    Unable to Pause game in MP. Game starts immediately and cannot stop. Also causes problems with ghost sessions on some servers.

  38. MP Unpause malfunction

    After pause button has been depressed in MP, the game does not respond when user hits F12 to continue unless player uses [+] [-] keys to change the compression selection, first.

  39. False Weapons Free status

    Tutorial 6 starts with Weapons Free status already enabled, but aircraft do not recognize it. [Originally reported by Eugene Smith]

  40. Unable to delete aircraft

    Only some aircraft can be deleted from a base

  41. Indestructible units in new scen

    Unit from the other side cannot be destroyed in newly created scen

  42. Player loses control

    Player loses control of all units in the middle of a game.



These 145 behaviours do not appear to have been resolved by the 3.9.4 patch:


  1. AAA fire

    AAA guns are not limited by the altitude of the target and can even shoot down satellites.

  2. Automatic contact classification

    The true type classification of a contact is automatically revealed when it is designated hostile by the hotkey.

  3. Group Nav Zone Settings

    The Nav Zone settings for a Group are not adopted by the individual units forming that Group. i.e. If you order a TF to avoid Ship Threat Zone [A], the Group icon will avoid the Threat Zone but the individual ships of the Group will sail into the Threat Zone.

    Work-around solution: Set the Nav Zone parameters for each unit individually.

  4. Subs in groups

    Subs joined with groups are automatically assigned a formation patrol zone on the ASW axis that cannot be changed or modified.

  5. Hangar overload

    It is possible to land many more aircraft than the hangar capacity allows.

  6. AI inside Minimum Launch Range

    If an AI unit finds itself inside the Minimum Launch Range of its weapons, it is unable to move away in order to fire its weapons.

  7. MAD contact for ground facilities

    The MAD detector is able to detect ground facilities.

  8. ARMs cause planes to hang

    Aircraft armed with Anti-Radiation Missiles and bombs will continue to hang over a target once the bombs are released if they have not fired their ARMs. This will occur even if ARMs cannot be fired at the target in question.

  9. Opening 3.6.3 scen causes crash

    Opening this scenario in ANW causes Crash. Scenario opens and runs fine in H3.6.3

  10. Ready times go wild when AI Formation Air Patrols activated

    Ready times go wild when AI Formation Air Patrols activated. This does not appear when the AI option is not enabled.

  11. All ammo not available

    300 rounds of ammo are shown, but only 44 are offered for fire allocation.

  12. Plane ignores Nav Zone

    Plane totally ignores Nav Zone

  13. Mission ignores target list

    Targets not restricted to target list for mission.

  14. Weapon ignores range limitation

    Weapon sometimes ignores range limitation and fires on targets outside of the range set by the Database. This can sometimes result in guns hitting targets 100s of miles away. Often, it occurs when the target is vaguely detected.

  15. Hidden units can be destroyed without detection

    When hidden units are part of a group, attacks on the Group Icon can destroy the hidden units without the need to ever detect them.

  16. Units out of range can be destroyed

    Units out of range can be destroyed if they are part of a group.

  17. Sonobuoy deployment altitude

    Sonobuoys can be deployed at any altitude.

  18. Ground units attacked by Ship Strike mission

    Units assigned to Ship Strike missions will attack ground facilities.

  19. Ships attacked by Ground Strike mission

    Units assigned to Ground Strike missions will attack ships.

  20. Active sonobuoys dropped passively

    Sonobuoys with active-only sonar systems are dropped in passive mode even when the "Drop Active Sonobuoy" hotkey is depressed.

  21. Max launch speed restriction

    When a unit is travelling faster than the Maximum Allowable Launch Speed of the weapons it is carrying and tries to fire them, the weapon allocation table appears and the player is mistakenly given the choice of firing the weapon. The window no longer displays a warning message and restricts player from attempts to fire.

  22. Hellfire do not launch in ODb

    Hellfire missiles will not launch even though they appear in the weapons allocation window.

  23. CTD when Database button is depressed

    When playing Multi-player games, scenarios will sometimes crash to the desktop when the Database button has been depressed.

    [Edit] With the Patch 3.9.0 release, this issue no longer results in CTD. However, it is still erroneous.

  24. Mission fails to navigate without Full throttle setting

    Aircraft without a "Full speed" throttle setting in the database are fully functional under manual control, but are unable to calculate a path to their targets under AI control.

  25. Planes directly inserted ignore target list

    Planes directly inserted ignore targets listed in strike missions. However, planes that launch on those same strike missions will obey the target strike list and not attack any target not on the list.

  26. All strikers fail to launch

    All aircraft assigned to a strike mission fail to launch.

  27. Protect ViCond doesn't evaluate properly

    Protect ship Victory Condition does not evaluate properly.

  28. Game ends abruptly

    When playing Multi-player games, scenarios will end at incorrect times. One side gets a message that it has not fulfilled the ViConds and has lost. He is then kicked from the game even though there is plenty of time remaining. This occurs more often during "high" time compression rate (1:60+).

  29. Altitude mis-match between Group and units

    Units and Group icons show different altitude values in SE.

  30. ASW/WH torps tracking wrong targets

    WH/ASW torps tracking targets they cannot hit.

  31. Min engine altitude ignored

    Min engine altitude ignored for Trident SLBM. Missile can be launched from a depth deeper that allowed by the engine parameters.

  32. SSM Altitude crash

    Land-based SSMs appear to crash into the surface after launch and ignore their cruise altitude.

  33. TALD materialize at wrong point

    When firing lots of missiles i.e. TALD, the missiles all originate from the same point even when the plane moves away.

  34. Time compression causes miss

    Higher time compression creates automatic miss.

  35. Weapon Max Launch Speed ignored

    Weapons ignore Maximum Launch Speed set in database.

  36. Phantom air group

    Phantom air group.

  37. Re-Charge at Int depth

    Subs are reported to be re-charging batteries at Intermediate depth, but it is not known if charge levels actually increase.

  38. Ammo dumps emptied

    Ammo dumps in all ODb scenarios have been emptied of weapons for aircraft.

  39. Ground targets re-engaged prematurely

    Targets are being re-engaged prematurely. Missiles are still in flight when successive attacks are launched thus wasting weapons.

  40. Map Scale inaccurate

    Map scale is erroneous.

  41. Max altitude for planes is 32,767m

    The Max altitude for planes is now 32,767m. Previously, it was unlimited and could simulate satellite platforms.

  42. MP Saved game titles

    MP Saved game titles often use portions of the orders in lieu of the Session name.

  43. SSK rises early

    Diesel subs rise to Periscope depth long before their batteries are exhausted.

  44. Unassign command sound missing

    Use of the Unassign Hotkey command on groups will elicit an audible "ping". However, this audible cue is missing when the same command is issued to individual units.

  45. AAW patrol motionless

    AAW patrol motionless instead of flying between assigned reference points.

  46. Accuracy slider changes combat II

    Accuracy slider changes combat calculation. Air strike resolves differently when slider set on Low/Fast or High/Slow Accuracy setting.

  52. Generic strikes seek additional targets

    Generic strikes seek additional targets after initial target is destroyed even if secondary targets have no relation to original target.

  53. Indexation status false

    ANW Launcher claim that "most community-databases do not support" indexation by Time and Country is false.

  54. Missiles drawn to wrong targets

    Missiles fired at targets located with pinpoint precision are still drawn to other targets.

  55. Phantom mounts shown on aircraft

  58. Ready Times shortened

    Aircraft with long ready times can have them shortened to the default 30 minutes.

  59. Sanity check fails for multiple weapons records

    Sanity check reports an error when a Quantity value >1 is entered beside a Weapons Record in either the Loadout tabel or the Magazine table even though this causes no problem for the game, itself.

  60. Sanity check fails for propulsion alt bands

    Sanity check reports an error if altitude bands for propulsion entries are not in sequential order.

  61. Sanity check fails for propulsion max alt

    Sanity check fails to report an error if the max altitude for the propulsion system is greater than the allowable altitude for aircraft. Maximum altitude for aircraft is 32,767m but maximum engine operational altitude value can be set higher.

  62. Sanity check fails for Ready Times

    Sanity check fails to account for different Ready Times in loadout table. Loadouts that have identical weapons with only differ in Ready Times are identified as 'duplicate' entries by the Sanity Check.

  63. Sensor default values are zero

    When Sensor menu [F9] is activated for individual units or groups, all default values are Zero. Previously, the default values were 1 min Active followed by 5 minutes Passive for all types of sensors. Proper default values of 1min/5min appear if a group of separate units are "drag-selected" and then the F9 hotkey is depressed.

  64. Sonar detects facility

    Land facility detected by sonar.

  65. Strike Mission fails to cancel

  98. Focused strike not firing

    Artillery does not fire on a Focused Land Strike mission even when Weapons Free.

  99. Formation patrols ignore axis

    Formation patrols ignore axis when assigned patrol zones in the Formation editor. Most often, the patrols appear offset from the actual Threat Axis. i.e. if the Threat Zone is pointing North and a Patrol zone is assigned to it, the ship may take up a patrol zone 90 degrees off the intended placement. This occurs primarily in multi-player games, but has been reported in SP (by Shemar), too.

  100. Group cannot lay string of sonobuoys

Here is one more issue that AoA and I discovered testing a new scen in MP

UNREP not possible in multiplayer

To reproduce
1. start session on server
2. select stand-alone scens
3. select scen '4 OPERATION BLACKBUCK'
4. select side UK (bottom of side list) and begin scenario
5. select TF Invincible, hit '9'
6. select 'R05 HMS Invincible', hit F5, select Fort Austin
7. Invincible will intercept Fort Austin
8. Unrep weapon menu will come up
9. select 'Munitions - general' from left pane
10. add 10 454 bombs, hit OK
11. bombs will not transfer

Same sequence in solitaire will result in message 'transfer has started' and transfer of bombs

Confirmed and added to The List.

UnRep not possible in MP

CVH will rendezvous with ship and player can order weapons for transfer, but none will be moved over (Originally reported by Freek Schepers)

1. Run [PDb] UnRep not possible in MP (3.9.4).scn in GE from Royal Navy side on MP Server
2. Order Invincible to undergo UnRep with RFA Fort Austin
3. CVH will rendezvous with ship and player can order weapons for transfer, but none will be moved over

Many thanks for the kind thoughts, but the easiest element of the SQA process, IMO, seems to be in finding the bugs. 

Much more difficult is trying to get AGSI to listen or fix them.  And it is outright impossible to stop AGSI from introducing the bugs in the first place.

We better have our head-to-head match soon.  Otherwise, we may find ourselves faced with a game that simply won't run!

Stupid Questions (sorry):

I haven't fired up Harpoon 3 ANW in quite a while. I had already downloaded the "3900DR" and the "Hotfix 3.9.1".

I just now downloaded:
392Hotfix
392bComp
393
394

But I noticed that 3.91 is no longer available for download. Should I load ti or was it a bad release?

To get current should I start with 3900DR and load all the others on top of it, or should I follow some other procedure?

This update is comprehensive and will bring any prior version of the game to version v3.9.4.

I have v 3.7 (the one I purchased).  This patch WILL NOT bring it up to date.  There are patches after 3.7 that are over 250 megs.  3.9.4 is a little over 6 megs.  How exactly does this bring ANY PRIOR VERSION up to 3.9.4? 

Want to rewrite that so I know the  MINIMUM version it actually works on? 

3.8? 3.9? 3.92?

You'd better install 3.92 (which is really comprehensive, it is about 250MB in size) and then install 3.93 and finally the new-released 3.94 patch. You know, some patches are called comprehensive and they are usually over 200MB while the hotfix patches are only 6MB (such as 3.93 and 3.94) .

I wouldn't worry about 3.9.1 as it was only a Beta release. Try:

Don't just use the last one. You'll have many problems. I recommend:

ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/Harpoon3ANW/Harpoon3ANW-UpdateRelease-380-Inc.zip
ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/Harpoon3ANW/Harpoon3ANW-UpdateRelease-v3900DR.zip

ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/Harpoon3ANW/Harpoon3ANW-HotfixRelease-v394.zip
http://www.harpdb.com/h3/pdb/scen/Complete_ANW_Library.exe

You might be able to skip one of them, but some users are reporting missing files if they do. I think that these patches are the bare minimum.

I'd love to hear the reason why this is a "bug", except in Herman's opinion? I mean if you're worried about the files accumulating you simply need a new PC, I mean I have 500GB in my machine and another 500 on the desk next to it, why would I be concerned with accumulating a few extra MB of tiny 1, 2 or maybe 3KB files?

Looks to me like Herman collects things that are new and because he didn't authorise them they are bugs!

You can blame me, I asked Russell to add increased logging with the ultimate aim of eventually introducing a scoring system for ANW. Of course Herman if you don't want to move forward sit there and simply act like the proverbial "stick in the mud". I am of the belief that a scoring system developed in conjunction with the MP version of the game eventually leading to the ability to develop a ladder system to rank players might interest a few people. Even applied to individual SP games players could measure their improvement by self-scoring their games.

I'm going to put it simply, Herman Hum is NOT part of the development team and therefore is NOT privy to what the AGSI development team is undertaking.

It took Herman 44 minutes to list the 27 "newly created bugs"? So you're telling us you knew about these and did nothing, contacted no one and simply saved them up and waited for the release to be announced? You are without doubt the greatest self-serving creature I have ever come across. Either that or you found 27 issues in 44 minutes...

I have a new bug to add to the list:

xx - Herman Hum is involved with this gaming system.

Best Wishes

Darren Buckley - he who wouldn't trust Herman Hum as far as I could spit into a Force 10 gale.

Yes it does...

But only in scenedit. The "aircraft" you're indicating is NOT VISIBLE is the SP version of the game. It is an internal function of the game and unless you're viewing the game and it's running in Scenedit, you won't see it.

In fact if you also turn the "View ALL" setting off you won't see it either.

NOT AN ISSUE - lack of full description here makes it appear to be an issue it's not.

Best Wishes, keep smiling

No kidding Sherlock...

How about you then select the group and the centre map function will work.

You can also deselect all units and attempt to create a mission, won't work. Why? Well the game engine need to know what side you're creating the mission for. That's not a bug, that's just the way it is. I've known about both of these "issues" for years, they aren't issues, simply the lack of ability to deduce what's happening and alter YOUR behaviour. You're upset you have to make one extra mouse click????

I'll see if I can have Russell add the code so the game makes you coffee, how do you take it?

Cheers

Thanks for confirming what we already knew mate...

And the obligatory name-calling and pro-forma personal attack whenever logic fails and folks refuse to listen and obey...

Keep it civil please. Name calling and baiting are not what we need on this forum and are not allowed either.

Thanks,

Russell

I think both of you are 12 year old kids. Its this continued BS that will keep this game forever in the might have beens.


Funny: I thought that what kept this game a 'might-have-been' was its almost unprecedented bugginess. Of course pointing out bugs can cause "distrurbances in the Force", so, maybe, what you are looking at is a side effect.

Yes it does...

Again, thanks for your re-confirmation of this buggy behaviour.


You censored the post, something you have constantly accused others of doing to you! What it's ok if it suits you but no one should dare attempt to censor/edit/present in a different light/misrepresent you?

So I'll post it here again and people can read the whole thing without you being selective to suit your own purposes whatever they may be... If you don't understand why this isn't a bug, maybe you should fess up to playing in scenedit all the time...

Harpoon3ScenarioEditor.exe is used to construct scenarios

Harpoon3.exe is used to play the game

So read what I typed and please tell me why the hell it's a bug????? I explained this to a friend of mine yesterday and he has never played Harpoon in his life yet was able to understand immediately what was happening.

Yes it does...

But only in scenedit. The "aircraft" you're indicating is NOT VISIBLE is the SP version of the game. It is an internal function of the game and unless you're viewing the game and it's running in Scenedit, you won't see it.

In fact if you also turn the "View ALL" setting off you won't see it either.

NOT AN ISSUE - lack of full description here makes it appear to be an issue it's not.

Mr Hum,

If we fix the list, will you simply vanish like so much mist in the morning sun?

I mean without your list will you still have a life?

If you continue to defame the people working on the development of this game I believe you are fair game for whatever I want to throw at you. I will throw it until it sticks and you're covered in it.

We went as far as setting up a specific Mantis installation for the public (that's you Herman, you not part of this officially, just another pleb). You listed these "newly created issues" here on a public forum, and obviously refused to cooperate in fixing anything. Do you throw your rubbish/trash over your neighbour's fence and hope he cleans it up for you?

When explanations are given you ignore them, why? maybe they don't suit your agenda. I mean that you have an agenda and if you were serious about helping fix these issues you'd put them somewhere where they'd do some good. Instead you simply continue with this list of yours and expect people to bow to you for maintaining something that has no effect on the game.

I urged AGSI to deal with your list, not you. So basically getting these issues dealt with is due to Russell Sharp and I and has little to do with you. I offered explanations and you simply selectively pasted part of my explanation and said I was confirming a bug by explaining it? Then you wonder why I stoop to,

Why would you refuse to listen?

Where did I ask you to obey?

How can logic fail?

What constitutes an answer to your issues? We need to know so we can word them in an acceptable form for you, oh Mr Harpoon.

It's a bug because it also happens in MP. (As anyone who actually plays the game would have known.)

Mr Hum,

[Rant deleted]

So, is this considered a personal attack, name-calling, or baiting by AGSI?

Naw, it's just an old Jedi mind trick:

AGSI Jedi: You don't need to see his identification.
Weak-minded minion: We don't need to see his identification.

AGSI Jedi: These aren't the bugs you're looking for
Weak-minded minion: These aren't the bugs we're looking for

AGSI Jedi: He can go about his business.
Weak-minded minion: He can go about his business.

No this is all me mate, I'm not an employee of AGSI. I just help them, you know doing something constructive, not destructive like you.

You want to take the gloves off, go right ahead. I might start looking through that copy of everyone else's work you pass off as your own (the Plagiarised Database) and start to expose you for what you are.

Have you removed my work from the PDB? I'm serious I want everything you took from the HUD/HUD-II removed from what you're publishing immediately. Why should I do the work and you get the credit??? Yeah I know the DB won't work anymore. Should have thought about that before you copied it...

I'm sick of you and your attitude, your constant snide remarks. Hum, if you can produce a game better than harpoon, go right ahead and then come back here and criticise to your heart's content. Otherwise shut up and accept what you get, people like you don't even deserve that. If this was a firing squad I'd offer you a blindfold or a cigarette, not both.

I'm sorry.  You misconstrued my remarks.  I'm asking the AGSI representative if these remarks of yours are:

1) Name-calling
2) Personal attack
3) Baiting

This message is addressed to Mr. Sharp.

Rusty's out for the night, you'll just have to wait. While you are, you can start pulling that copied material from the database of yours.
