Re: TM, RA, and BTS Re-Write

Will upload the newest versions to the BTS website soon. If anyone wants them early, PM me with your email and I'll send them over to you. Where is the BTS website? Or do you mean the BTS page on the website in your signature? That version seems to be a couple of years old, so I'd love a more updat...

looking for experinced Japanese opponent

My current game as Japan has slowed to a crawl so I'm looking for a new game. I would consider myself to be fairly good at the game, so probably not the best opponent for a totally new player. I'm up for any mod or scenario provided it isn't wildly unbalanced in Japans favour, and would probably rat...

Re: Challenge for Allied Vet

I had a look, and yeah, sorry that's definitely outrageously biased in my eyes. The thing is, you might start the game with a major disadvantage, but a year or so in you'd know everything you need to, and would still have massive amounts of stuff coming in. It looks like half the stuff comes in for ...

Re: Challenge for Allied Vet

I might be up for it, I think I could consider myself a vet if I'm 6 for 6 so far, but I'm not familiar with this specific scenario you are suggesting. I looked in the scenario thread in the mod forums but can't find a scen 21, assuming it isn't outrageously biased against the allies I'm interested.

Re: Allied Foe for scenario 2

Potentially interested, but which side are you wanting to play, since the title and your post contradict each other?

I've got an ongoing game as Japan, so I'm only looking for a game as allied.

RE: I just purchased a 32" 4K monitor and....

Don't suppose you would care to share what that method is?

I've got a 3440x1440 monitor and I've got it working at around 3180 horizontal, beyond that it rips. Weird how some people seem to be able to go higher than that both absolutely and as a portion of the max resolution.

Cost/effectiveness of submarines

<t> After doing some play testing for the latest BTS as Japan, I got to thinking about how outrageously expensive it is to build submarines as Japan.<br/> <br/> Now I'm no historian but I'm reasonably sure that submarines didn't cost 1/2 of a heavy cruiser to build, except perhaps the ridiculous SSC...

RE: BTS Play-Testing

<t> Ra plane art definitely causes crashes, as I said a few days ago. I'm just running with no art for the added planes for now.<br/> <br/> CLAA conversions for Furutaka & Aoba seem extremely underwhelming, to put it mildly, particularly Aoba as they loose half their torpedoes as well as Y turre...

RE: BTS Play-Testing

That normally means you have different pwhexe.dat files from the main folder. pwzlink and pwzone are also possible culprits, you need to get your versions synced or you will quickly start running into desync errors.

Got things working mostly using the old art from before, although trying to install the plane art (RA4Planeart) make it crash for some weird reason.

<t> My last game looks like it may well not even start at this point, and if it does will not go fast at all, therefore to get my fix I'm looking for a second (or really first) game.
