RE: Harpoon crashes in the moment that two missles hit their target......

<t> I"ve been playing with the download for a while now and can't get it to crash.<br/>
It's not uncommon for a crash to be unreproducable even after a downloading a saved game; it's happened to me dozens of times over the years. Just credit it to whacky computer stuff and go on.<br/>
Happily, it ...

RE: SE Graphics Glitch?

I don't know if this is any help, but I just took a look through my Harpoon Museum. The fuzzies don't occur in the SE with Harpoon Classic or Harpoon 97, but start with Harpoon 2002.

RE: Please Explain This

The original SSW/NW comment shows something that subs have done going back to Harpoon DOS. It is less pronounced if the sub is at the center of its own formation, though. I've always chalked it up to "one of those things that computers do" and go by the Group window.

RE: Need some help with surface tactics

<t> The LA is probaly the best tool to be using if it is position to attack, mainly because you can't shoot down torpedoes.<br/>
In earlier versions of Harpoon, you could split up missiles to try to take out as many targets as you could without drawing counterfire until all missiles in the salvo ...

RE: What did I do wrong part 2

<t> 1) If you put Antisub armed helos in a formation using the Formation Editor, they will patrol their assigned sector until they land to refuel. They will either be replaced by a similarly armed helo if available, or by the original helo when refueled. During the patrol, they will automatically ...

RE: What did I do wrong part 2

<t> If you're talking about the "Hide and Seek" scenario, this has always been a tremendously frustrating scenario for me. I've found it difficult to find the subs at all; my first inkling is usually when something gets torpedoed. There's not really enough helos to go around to search for or attack ...

RE: Wish List Thread

<t> 1) My biggest wish involves formation manuevering.<br/>
Right now and since the very beginning of Harpoon, when a ship formation changes course, the units just pivot in place.&nbsp; So those very capable ASW units you had out in front are , depending on the angle of the turn, off to the side ...

RE: Staff Message Dialogue Box

"Pause" has always brought all proceedings to a dead stop in all versions of Harpoon back to Harpoon DOS.

RE: Staff Message Dialogue Box

<t> This is a corrupt registry problem that has occurred before with earlier versions of Harpoon going back to Harpoon 2002. I wasn't really surprised to have it happen again, but strangely&nbsp;it only occurred on my XP machine and not the Vista.<br/>
To fix: 1) From the Start button, select Run ...
