CHS 2.08 Database Correction Thread for Gary's Mod

Post by GaryChildress »

[center]Please read this post before posting to this thread, thanks:[/center]

I'm only one human being with limited spare time as I am unable to tinker on my mod at all during work. however, I'd like to address as many database corrections as possible which are needed for CHS 2.08 and I'd like to try to keep it as manageable for me as possible. So if everyone would co-operate it would be much appreciated. [:)]


The purpose of this thread is to address database errors etc. in CHS 2.08 which specifically will be corrected in the mod I'm working on. I would be grateful if everyone would post any known errors, omissions etc. here and in the following format:




[Error]
Database
slot#
slot name
field: existing error
Should be: correct value



Example:

[Error]
Devices
slot 1
18.1in/45 T94 Gun
Effect: 3219
should be: 3218




OR



if something is an omission, then please use the following format:




[Omission]
Database
slot name



Example:

[Omission]
Aircraft
Ki-1000 Bert




A post can certainly be as long worded or as short worded as you wish and I will try to skim through it and respond if necessary, however, somewhere in the post I would appreciate it if you would summarize the correction using the formats above. That way I can skim down to the correction and quickly introduce it to the database.

Also if you see that someone has posted a correction which is itself erroneous, please respond using the following format:
=====================

Quote original correction only
cite problem with original correciton

Example:
Aircraft
Ki-1000 Bert
No such plane ever existed from 1941-1945.

=====================

Of course not every correction will fit the format above, however, please try to keep corrections as simple and to the point as possible and easy for me to spot and sift through.

I don't expect to get word of every needed correction, however, I hope this thread will produce a significant number of them.

Also, I apologize that this is going to duplicate a lot of posts already made in the forum, however, as I say I have limited time on my hands and would like to have a structured method of finding as many necessary corrections as possible. I just don't have the time to filter through a thousand posts to find every error which someone has reported.

Thanks for any help. [&o]

Hi Tanaka, unfortunately what you see in this thread is the response I got to this request. No one sent me anything. [:(]

Otherwise I would gladly share anything I had found out. I made a few modest changes to the CHS 2.08 OOB, including the Royal Thai Armed Forces and some other units that appeared to be missing, mostly in Manchukuo and India defense forces.

Everything I changed in the mod can be found on this page:

If you want to borrow info from this mod for anything you are working on you have my blessing. If you want to use the mod as a base for something else, it is fine by me. Also, if you have any specific questions regarding changes stated on the web page above I will be glad to answer them. [:)]

Yes I am trying to gather everyone back together and see who if anyone has tried to fix the last version and see what I can put together...

Thanks for your help!

My pleasure. [:)]

If I may ask, is this for AE coming out or is this a project which you are working on for the current edition of WITP?
