<t> When playing either Admirals Edition or H3 ANW, I came across a post on how to insert a pause in the waypoint orders. If I remember, the pause was 30 seconds but, you could insert multiple pauses. I used this to set waypoints for dipping sonar helos. I would set a bunch of waypoints for the helo ...

Thanks Tim. Do you remember a way to make the helo pause at each waypoint?

<t> I used to play one of the original Harpoons, then Admirals Edition, then ANW.<br/>
<br/>
When manually launching a helo with dipping sonar there was a way to make the helo stop at each waypoint and use it's sonar. Then it would go on to the next waypoint, pause with sonar, etc.<br/>

I ...

Thanks Tim.

I guess I'll ask a question or two and see if anyone answers.

Hello Folks,

Dusted off my H3 ANW v3.7.0. Great game!

Is this forum still active, or what forum should I use?

Thanks,
Harry

Can anyone tell me if HCCE has an automatic defensive behavior like H3 v.3.8? This defensive behavior turns on ship and aircraft radars and fires missiles automatically. Even with weapons tight and all Staff Handles off. I don't like this. Will HCCE do anything like that?

I was wondering when this 'feature' and or bug began. Apparently 3.6 did not do this and it is a new behavior to 3.7 or 3.8. I have played Harpoon AE for many years, and there also, weapons tight meant just that.<br/>
<br/>
I too much prefer weapons to be tight. (That doesn ...

<t> I had been trying to find an answer to what I thought was a bug for several days. This automatic behavior where my ships and aircraft radars come on and missiles are fired at enemy aircraft and incoming missiles. From some of the answers I was getting I came to the conclusion that this was a ...

<t> After a few days of trying to find out about what I thought was a bug, I find that it is a 'feature' built into H3.<br/>

My ship and aircraft radars come on by themselves and automatically fire at incoming threats.<br/>

Is there any way to make this stop?<br/>

Since my early Harpoon days I have never liked how the computer handles them. I launch every plane, place every plane, fly every plane, fire every missile, drop every bomb, shoot every torpedo, place enery sonobouy by hand. And any thing else that needs to be done is all done ...

<t> Hi JP<br/>
<br/>
I played Harpoon AE for many years and am new to H3. I played H3 with v.3.7 that came on the CD. I partially played more than 20 scenarios, but could never finish any of them because of the many bugs. This behavior where the radars came on by themselves and missiles fired ...

<t> Say Kip<br/>
<br/>
Yes, that is one of the circumstances where the firing of missiles occures. I always play with weapons tight.<br/>
<br/>
But, if I am understanding some of the information that I have been getting, this behavior where radars come on by themselves and missiles fire, is now ...

<t> I am now hearing that this may be a 'feature' of the game. Gees, I hope not. It sure makes a mess of defense most of the time. It has save a plane or two for me when I didn't notice what was going on, but its just not worth it. I can do a far better job and I would like to play the game myself ...

You seem to be haveing more problems than I am having. Soon after it starts playing by itself, doing things that I would not do, doing them less effectively that I would do, in an order that I would not do, less efficiently than I would do, I quit the game.<br/>

I do ...

<t> I'm using H3ANW v.3.8.0 RC11, DB2000, and scenarios written for v.3.6.3.<br/>
I am also using the original DB and original scenarios on the CD that came with v.3.7.0.<br/>

In both cases above, in every scenario I've played, at some point, the game starts to partially play itself. Task ...
