He sent us version 5 last night...he's going to make a formal announcement next week (he's out of town until then)

Hi mate before there is a mass download can you check in both zips of AB' version 5
I have downloaded them and find in both zips corruption in map 9 and 10 non hex (may be a faulty download) but with it in two zips I think they may be sus

if any one has a good down load can you zip up maps 9 and 10 non hex and mail to me

Someone PM'd me about that last night and I reuploaded...if it was after about midnight last night that you downloaded, it means my copies are corrupt. I'll redownload from him.

I only got a corruption report on WITN10.
Both 9+10 are corrupted in the extended version.

Tried Richards WITP page, and they are also corrupted.

How is the lovely map coming along Andrew? I'm itching to try Niks new mod, but don't want to start until the map is ready, and his mod converted.
He sent us version 5 last night...he's going to make a formal announcement next week (he's out of town until then)

He has yet to convert the scenarios to the new map version and explain it all on his site.

Any idea what the formal announcement is about? I.e, is this the final version? If so hopefully Nik conversion will be soon. Then I can get going on my first attempt at playing Japan.. and probably, at that point, withdraw from real life completely! [:D]

Been trying, but I can't quite seem to get rid of this 'job' thing.. It's quite annoying and keeps interfering with my strategic operations..

I'm hoping that planning the Japanese 1st move (for the 1st time!) will finally make me realise that ceasing work is a necessary consequence of winning the war

Ah yes, the "job"... I also suffer from this malady, in the slightly rarer form "higher education"...

I re-downloaded from Andrew and am not getting piece 10 in either to load in PhotoShop...I guess we'll have to wait for Andrew to get back.[:(]

have you tried loading one of the alternate version 5s? Maybe there are better files in one of them.
So much WitP and so little time to play.... :-(

He sent me the links to the ones he wanted us to post and the same pieces are corrupt in both sets both times I downloaded them.

The set I linked to was for stock art only. He found a few minor snafus but I use them and am happy.

I think he is still working on the requests and the CHS stuff.

He does great work. I love look at his plane art. I wonder where he gets the energy. (I'm kind of like that with photographs, though, spending hours sometimes with a difficult situation in Photoshop, then looking up all of sudden to wonder where the day went! [:)]

Indeed TJ, you are right. I will probably never finsih working on them. Currently I have the original CHS Palettes of Allied anf Jap tops, and a newer Stock versions derived from them. Additionally I maintain a seperate set of palettes for Alikchi's IS2 Mod, and Gary Childress' Mod. Of late I have been on an Art hiatus, though I intend to re-release the Stock set with some fixes to the Snafus Rogue alluded to. Quite embarrassing, that.

I appreciate the support as usual. The state of the tops is that all aircraft, fantasy or otherwise, are complete except the russians. There are several late war Soviet aircraft that have not been re-done yet. They will be done eventually, but for now I am recharging my creative battery and enjoying the extra time[;)]

A person needs a break once in awhile. At least I know I do when it comes to anything creative. Sometimes I back away from my photographic work for months at a time, but when I do eventually return to that hobby I find my energy level (call it my enthusiasm) much invigorated, and thus, my work is better still.

Regarding Frank Jack Fletcher: They should have named an oiler after him instead. -- Irrelevant
