New world :)

My mod ( Empire V 3.0B) is just about to be updated and has had a lot of fine-tuning. Post will be up tomorrow.

Empire - see the thread. Maybe take a tour and tell me what you feel about it.

Sadly, the actual DaBabes site doesn't seem to be active anymore. You have to go to the Wayback Machine to access it.

Thanks you both.


Off topic. Is there a way to make a post without having to open a new window to post like we did in old forum where there was space to write at bottom and almost every forum have ?

Thank you Sardaukar.

More questions about mods, any historical mod that corrected data mistakes. Like Thalia (sorry mean Theresa too short legs in official game) range, floatplanes and patrol aircraft without cameras, missing ship classes etc?

Crikey, now you are opening up the BIG can'o worms!

Best I can answer is: somewhat, but not unilaterally that I know of. There is a BIG FINAL PATCH (BFP) reputedly coming out, but we don't have a final release date on it yet. Delays are because, well, we as a group found something like 20 pages of "ooops" in our testing that they are working through to incorporate. Its taking time as the group doing it is completely volunteer to my knowledge.

DBB got a big update before JWE left that addressed a ton of data issues. I think most mods picked all of that up (I know I did, HUGE difference in combat outcomes). I don't know, but I suspect that the BFP will have a lot of that incorporated into it.

John has updated his RA mods fairly regularly. About half a dozen others are updated still. Cyd is still around working his.

Then every error found must be corrected and then tested to make sure that it did not cause another problem or even more than one.

I mean, how would a player like to find out that the Chinese Zombie units started coming back to a base after both Chengtu and Chungking were both captured? Even without supplies, 4k Chinese AV will take a time to destroy. Especially if the Japanese are out of position. Now think if those units came back where the could get supplies!

On another example i was not expecting to see duplicated units still in the game = Japanese 43 Construction Co.

Another pet peeve of mine is also that IJN AA do not move around. It is basically stuck into base force concept regardless of more or less threats in some area.

Japan has a fair number of unattached AA Coys/Bns/Rgts. Are they not what you need?
