I would want to like the game ... but a lot of serious troubles

War in Spain 1936-39 is the first in a new wargame series, using a new Land-Sea-Air engine inspired by War in the Pacific - Admiral’s Edition. Gameplay and realism are improved by TRUE AI and a detailed Logistics systems. A hyper detailed OOB reaches down to battalion and company level. A beautiful, hand drawn, 5 nautical mile per hex map massively increases player immersion.

I would want to like the game ... but a lot of serious troubles

Post by francescomolina »

i have some CTDs or my game is frezzing the whole computer, so that i need a restart of it.
The grafic resolutions for map and icons are in low resolution , its not up to date
The use of a 32-bit-engine is disappointing for me .. so its no progression in comparrison to "War in the Pacific", its the same UI-feeling
I also miss the grafic representation of the range of the recon planes and an auto-save-funktion
The in-game animations of the ships doesnt work or the LCU-list doesnt work, its flickering and transparent.. see other post here in the forum, look at https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopic.php?t=415037

At this time i really cant recommend the game .. althrough i would like to do that !

My wish list:
possibility of UI- and font-scaling by myself,
high resolution icons (and map)
auto-save-funktion
the grafic representation of the range and rangecycles of the planes like in "War in the Pacific Admiral Edition" (solved with pressing "Z")

If i get this correctly, by pressing Z the box for visual data where the airplane ranges are, show up (consult the in game key mapping. Lower left in the screen).

Regarding this, pressing the Z key brings up a small window in the upper right corner of the screen, which is completely empty.
However, depending on where you click within this small window, different lines appear, or what look like clouds appear over the map.
In this example there is a green line over Mallorca for naval search.

If the window shouldn't look like this, then I have a new graphics problem. If this is the correct way to do it, it seems like a flawed design, because I don't know where I'm clicking or what I'm clicking. I definitely prefer the WitP-AE system.

That allows you to see your own saves with your own descriptions without having to scroll down too far. You can turn off the autosave function in the .ini file if it bothers you to have to scroll down so far.
