Wau base not present in AB's extended map 5.0?

Post by TulliusDetritus »

Hello everyone again,

I downloaded the new Andrew Brown's extended map v.5.0 (great artistic work, by the way! [:)]) and I was quite surprised.

From what I read on these forums, the Wau base (in New Guinea) was supposed to be included on the new map.

The fact is: the name of the base (Wau) is there. A new trail (between Wau and Lae) is also present, but no dot on the hex: no base. Did Andrew forget to add this base on the extended map? Did I do something wrong when I installed the thing? Anyone having this same "problem"? Or even better: anyone downloaded the extended map and has the Wau base?

Thanks in advance.

I have yet to download the new map but the base info would be included in the scenario file and not the art file.
Here's a link to:

Correct, Treespider. So we will have to download a modified scenario (I missed this one: it was quite obvious though, I have to admit it [:)]). I just hope we will not have to restart our games [:(]

As always, if you want the new bases, you need to start a new game. There is nothing I can do about that.

I have DLed the standard 5.0 map from Spooky's as well as the scenario 154 v1.06 from Andrew's site, started a new game - and have no Wau base either. The name is there but no base icon, not even a beach dot. I assume I need an updated scenario version - but where can I find it?

Furthermore, I have read about a number of OOB errors and an upcoming new version of CHS - any date for the revised version? I'm asking because I want to go PBEM, but I would wait if the new version is near.

Regards,
LST

Sorry - I am still working on them. Been held up again, but they should be updated in a few days time (fingers crossed).

Sadly no date yet. It will be a while. I have neglected CHs while I have been working on getting this map update completed. Hopefully there will be some clearer news on CHS soon...
