I knew that this thread would, eventually, return to scenario design instead of an advice column.

You do much better as a scenario designer than an advice columnist.  [8D]

Hm... Paul are you sure you want to give Herman access to that scenario... we all know what happened after Herman was given the go-head to 'fix' Klaus' scenarios a few months back...

It might also be a good idea to stick to version 3.6 of Harpoon3 until we get a working copy of 3.7.x [;)]

hehe asked for a solution he gave me an answer which actually worked[;)], still using 3.7.1 beta if the next patch doesn't live upto expectations I will be reverting back to 3.6[:)]

You're Welcome! [:D]

By the way, this scenario: Small problem with Euroalliance scenario 1

Still crashes right from the very beginning. It's been over TWO months since it was first reported: 8/8/2006 5:05:44 PM

Acutally, it's been over 9 months since the scenario was first posted. (1/21/2006) [;)]

Do you need any help fixing it (since we were the ones who fixed all 56 files to make them functional with v6.5.17 so long ago)? The last time help was requested, a fix was found inside of two hours. Sure beats TWO MONTHS, eh? [;)]

Welcome back from your holiday ban, Ragnar. Hopefully, you'll be able to contribute in a more constructive manner this time around. [:)]

Thanks Paul. Lost the first time during testing. Got 9 targets but lost way too many aircraft in return (a dozen or so).

And here I thought that we had turned this thread around and were back into scenario design and game discussion....

You're a much better scenario designer than you are an advice columnist. Stick to what you are good at. [:D]

I just tried to DL the game. When I went to the site, I see that the link isn't active.
