Damned but those are nice. Did you do them?

With a blizzard coming in, I have today and tomorrow off. Since Michael has the files I think I might work to clean-up the art files for ships as well as try to fix the aircraft art. May need help on the aircraft side. We'll see if it is more do-able now then earlier.

John,

Did you get a chance to look at the treaty mod? The possible missing files?

Regarding these mods so far, I would so the contest is pretty even as expected so far going into late '43. We'll see how '44 and '45 (and maybe '46?) turn out.

Hey John3rd or anyone else who knows,

2 things....

1-Is the Treaty Mod fixed? When I load it,, it does not show up in the list.. It looks like 2 files are missing
2-Even more important to me.. Which mods of yours still has the Kaga as a CV? that is my Favorite ship

Thank you

No Kaga AS CV...

I have Tosa in there. If you wanted you could rename it to Kaga and have her in her INTENDED form.

Have not grabbed those files for Treaty. Will make that a priority after dinner tonight.

Found the missing files and placed a new ZIP folder into the RA website. Download and all are now present.

I have noticed that British Carrier attack planes, ie Swordfish, etc, are basically a 1 shot use, there is a big hole in production for a year and half, they end up as fighters only unless you put US planers on them.

BTW: a very minor quibble, but what is with some Japanese CA's having depth charges at the start? The only example I can find is when in desperation, they put them on a few due to lack of escorts, These scenarios have escorts.

The Swordfish comment is excellent. I've never noticed that. Will check it out. We have bumped a bunch of different Allied planes allowing for more airframes. This might be another area to look at.

Have never messed with DC on cruisers. Have not even thought about it. Anyone know anything here on this subject?

I have a question about the following units..

Kure 2nd SNLF
Sasebo 2nd SNLF
Babeldaop Naval Fortress

They are not in the RA scenario is there a reason why they were eliminated?

John, I'll echo the comments on Swordfish but really go beyond that to all British naval aviation planes. Seems to be a production hole for all of them relative to the capacity of your British carriers, especially if you are running withdrawals turns off.

Thanks for backing that up Sean. When the files come back from Michael, I shall work on this issue.

The vast majority of SNLF have been taken out and replaced at 3-to-1 for SNLF Assault Brigades.

John

I have been playing this mod since it came out but now the game fails to load - please see below.

I have WITP AE loaded on my computer for more than 10 years. Never had any problems.
I am on windows 8.1

I have an installation also of focus Pacific no problem
I have an installation of RA, BUT

When I go to load a game turn I get the following error message as per picture. The game itself loads fine.

I have done all the virus scans and also removed all files from the computer nothing seems to work. I have also updated the graphics software and so want nothing works. Can you help with this problem?

John,

Please check the conversions for the Jap CS class : Chiyoda and sisters at RA; They are not converting to CVLs even when disbanded at the bigger repair shipyards at HI;

Morphin,

I think the latest ones are the ones on his website. For your information I have been playing RA7.9 one behind the newest one and it's actually an excellent scenario we have been playing on two-day turns play by email and are now in August 1944. I can also tell you that I have made a slightly modified version of the same thing RA version 8.0 this scenario will hopefully receive the sanction of John and be put on his website as well as other places. It's imminently about to be released we are just doing the final touches and just checking that everything is correct. Fundamentally it's a version based on the idea that technology is a bit behind at the start of the war but then accelerates faster through it. This means you have to start with a lot of obsolete equipment and you end up with some very modern equipment.

The Omaha CL to CLAA conversion is missing. Both ship class 408 and 926 are checked off as covert to class. 408 should be checked as covert from class.

Both BTS-H and BTS-L are wrong.
