AT Guns Set to 1 Captain

Post by paulsalayko »

If there was one thing i was crossing my fingers for ( and this tells you how good my life is) it was to have the AT gun strengths at 3 when deployed in a DCG. However, playing the center barborossa campaign as germany, not only are my 50mm but now my 75mm AT guns coming into play with a value of one. I hope this can taken care of in the second patch, for i know the first patch has much more pressing matters to deal with.

P.S. Hope i spelled Barrborosa, Barrberossa, Barborrossa right!! Semper Fi

DAMN.  I was hoping they killed that bug.  Might be staying with WITP after all.

Talonsoft heard no end to the amount of grief that bug gave DCG players....and they were never able to squash it....

I forget the guy's name, but the Beta Brigade dude that worked with DCG issues died suddenly while trying to figure it out...

If I remember right, the bug seemed to occur in Battalion and Regiment commands at about the time the German 50mm AT guns would upgrade to 75mm...soon thereafter ALL auxiliary forces would show up at with a SP of '1'.

Division and Corps commands were not affected....

Do you have a date in the campaign for when this happened? Are you playing an infantry or armour formation? I am looking through the oob files to see if I can find the culprit.

Ken popped his head in here once or twice right after Matrix acquired the CS rights...haven't seen him since though...

And I've often wondered if John still plays these CS games on his "trusty ol' 486"....[:)]

John always seems busy on future projects. I think he has since upgraded? Glenn would always have about three of them going at any given time too. No sooner did we finish one we would enter alpha or beta on the next.

A few of the guys I haven't seen or heard from in years. Only met one in person.

OK, I found three potential hiccups in the German Infantry, Motorized Infantry and German Panzer Divisions.

The Motorized Inf hiccup affects the dates between 42 08 to 42 11

The Infantry affects the dates between 42 08 to 42 12

The Panzer affects the dates between 43 06 to 44 02

Is this where the Upgrade problem happens?

Thanks for the response gents. I am playing Barbarossa central, battalion level, tank battalion and i just clicked the upgrades have arrived box. The date on my newest mission is Nov,5 1941. I love putting my 3G's up against those T34 M41's it puts hair on a mans chest. Hope this helps Jason. I could really use the punch of those 75mm guns. Semper Fi
