<t> So I've managed to neutralise the OPFOR air assets by launching a lone Viper from Crete and letting it drag the OPFOR CAP down south, and then sneak a couple of Viper's around the north and hit the OPFOR Tanker (and Wedgetail for good measure). Wait until the OPFOR birds have to land for fuel ...

<t> I've just downloaded the new Command LIVE scenario (Don of a new era) and, as is my want, I'm looking through the platforms, adding some descriptions and photos as I do to the database to increase the educational aspects.<br/>
<br/>
So, in doing so, I've come across the RC-135X Cobra Eye ...

<t> Hey Andy - I've spent most of the last week on holiday on the Isle of Skye, during which I've also managed to read all of the Armageddon's Song series! I've really enjoyed the military aspects (although I feel we're a little differently inclined on the politics [;)] ). I'd love for someone to ...

<t> Sadly not. As some point, something must have changed.<br/>
<br/>
The good news is that I have got the game up and running on my bootcamped MacBook.<br/>
<br/>
The annoying thing is that a large dose of real life has meant no time in the last few days to actually use it.<br/>
<br/>
5 hour ...

Will try this evening.

Cheers,

Byron

<r> Part two is here: <URL url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK7nPMcD-DA">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK7nPMcD-DA</URL><br/>
<br/>
It includes (amongst other things) the explosion on the K-219 (I recommend the book on that incident - Hostile Waters) and the famous Victor III sortie of 1987 ...

<r> Great suggestions - got the Woodward, agree with the recommendation.<br/>
<br/>
Anyone looked at this - new edition published last year: <URL url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Seapower-Twenty-First-Century-Series-History/dp/041562262X/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE"><LINK_TEXT text ...

<t> Anyone with any interest in cold war submarine operations really, really should watch this (two-part) BBC series. Interviews with British, US and ex-Soviet submariners, lots of information that was new to me, well told and some good footage and reconstructions. Oh, and great music!<br/>
<br ...

Navies in the Nuclear Age now ordered - and a lot cheaper for a used hardback via Abebooks.co.uk than Amazon.co.uk (especially with shipping to China!)

Still interested in any other overview, tactics, etc books ....

Cheers,

Byron

<t> I have a significant number of Osprey Publishing books on various weapon platforms and game relevant scenarios - but I've a gap in the old library when it comes to books covering current or historical naval tactics. Any suggestions on this?<br/>
<br/>
Further on that - are there any other ...

<t> Done - but it still doesn't work. Obviously this makes me think that there is some cock-up in my system. Just can't imagine what, I've got the latest .Net, the latest DirectX, UIautomation thingamijig in the directory ...<br/>
<br/>
*sigh* back to work on Monday and my gaming time decreases ...

<t> Tried using the file in the prerequisites directory, but it declined as I had a newer version installed. (Last night I installed 4.5.1 direct from the Microsoft website).<br/>
<br/>
Also tried reinstalling DirectX 9.whatever from the same directory, all went fine although I think my system is ...

All done - copied Uiautomationcore.dll and uiautomationcore64.dll into the Command directory and rebooted - but still the same problem (and it was working fine until I updated to 488).

Boo. [:(]

Must be a database / scenario error. There are (currently) two airports in Riyadh and both have runways in excess of 4000m!

No worries and thanks for looking into it.

One thing that came up in another thread is that my copy of UIAutomationCore.dll had been removed to try and increase the stability of Flightsim (FSX) - could that be an issue?

Hmmm - I remember messing with UIAutomationCore.dll to try to make my flightsim installs more stable.

Where should that file go? Matt - what do you mean by 'the install path' ?

Cheers,

Byron

<r> This look similar to the type of crash in a few other threads ...<br/>
<br/>
I got the game a few days ago - installed the 1.02 and B486(?) updates and played away.<br/>
<br/>
This morning I installed the B488 update and got the attached crash message. It happens in any scenario when I click ...
