Thanks for the quick response, but where is the beta2 folder? I don't have a folder with that name in my game folder (matrix games\war in the pacific admiral's edition) or in my Tracker folder, and I don't see any link to it from the tracker home page.

The Beta2 folder lies as a direct offshoot of your primary WITP AE application base.

i.e.

<drive>:\<base path>\WITP AE\
ART
Autoplay
Beta2 <<<----
data1
Docs
Extras

etcetera ...

Strange, I don't have that folder? I think I have the latest release, here's my folder structure, and the version from in-game. What am I missing?

Okay, lower in that listing is a pwsdll.dll file. I believe it will be 487,424 bytes large. Copy that one to the WitPTracker folder and try again.

Thanks! That did the trick (and I can even load multiple turns now). I appreciate everyone's patience and help, this program is a big help in seeing what is going on in the game!!

Damian/Floyd,
Just out of interest, when are you planning to release version 1.9? Any time soon?

The 64 million dollar question...We hope to fairly soon, but we've also been saying that for a while too

We'd hoped for Dec7, then Xmas and I know it won't be before New Year's...so...hopefully sometime in Jan.

Hi guys! Not sure if anyone has mentioned it; one of the new controls in the Betas is a separate button for upgrading devices in LCUs (so there are now separate Replacement and Upgrade buttons, although for Upgrade to show Replacements must be On). In Tracker, on the devices screen there is a pop-up for each device that will show the pool history and what LCUs have that device, along with certain info about the LCU. One column is Replacements and it shows On or Off. Would you please add an Upgrade column with values On or Off?

Thanks for looking at it!

That is a good suggestion - I hope Floyd looks into it as I've banned myself from sending him new code.

Happy New Year from the TrackerBoys.

Question/Suggestion: I like to export a lot of the data to a spreadsheet to do custom sorts, etc, and print. However, one of the most useful screens, the Ship Repair, doesn't show up on the export drop-down. Am I missing something, is there another way to export (I also couldnt right-click to cut and paste, finally did a screenshot, but not as useful). If not, can that be added to the export options? Thanks!!

I think Floyd got this one earlier - but it'll be in 1.9

Hi guys,

Is there a way for me to change Lingayen from ownership of Allies to ownership of Japan? I've set up a PI Region but can't add this base as the table shows the allies own the base...

Thanx much 4 any advice you can provide,

Mike -
Tracker should do it automatically. Looks like a bug ?? Can you provide me with a save - I'll Pm my email address as Floyd is a bit busy at present.

Or have you just captured it and not loaded the turn yet ??

Could someone take a look at the data that comes from the subs?
Why is every sub or subTF listed with 0 cargo capacity on ship and ship class screen although all seem to have some minor cargo capacity.
Also I miss the Argonaut on the Ship upgrade screen under conversion, Narwhal class is listed but Argonaut class is missing.

Scenario is 001 the full campaign.
What examples do you need?
I get just 0 for all SS subs in the cargo & troop capacity column, the SST list shows values for cargo & troop capacity(except for the Japanese KD7) and that in the "Ships" and "Ship Classes" screens.(Oh forget the TF I think I mixed up the screens)

I've looked in editor and Tracker and I see nothing wrong ... once again I say please give a specific example of SS type / Name / upgrade(type) etc

I checked the editor and I see why you don't see anything, because the editor also shows nothing for the SS classes.
Well fact is in game they have cargo capacity, I think except for the SSX all have cargo capacity and some also troop capacity.
In this case the Argonaut has 24, not much but no sub has very much.

This isn't a DLL problem or?

OK - maybe that is WAD or a bug ... or for SSX's

No not a dll problem ...

maybe talking through my 'arris' but could have somethink to do with the mines that can be carried? if no mines carried the space converts to cargo space?

In editor only SST 's show troop and /or cargo values but most subs show mines in device #9??

You are probably referring to the ability to replace some torpedo loads with some supply carrying capability. This is in addition to normal supply carrying capacity.
This is roughly 3 times the number of reloads replaced, and would only apply on supply missions presumably.

Well I guess that's it, are these values stored in the database or where do they come from?

They are calculated on the fly when a Sub Transport mission is used. Reporting them in Tracker would probably be misleading as it would show cargo capacity AND torpedo loads -1 which should be mutually exclusive.
