I've been playing this game off and on for 11 years and I still make mistakes. I used to never put
mines on stockpile but someone suggested it and so I thought I would try it. Now I just need to remember
that I did it. [&:]

I have them more and more frequently!

Michael is preparing to grapple with the BEAST. He has wanted to work Chin as Big B has in his Mods. Well...the BTS Master Files have been sent to him to work on.

Is there some reason why you reduced the maximum range of the PBY-5 to 54? In stock and DBB it is 56, which is enough to fly from San Francisco to Pearl Harbor. At a range of 54 they can't, have to put them on a cargo ship and move them. Annoying.

John

Rita G8NI is in your RA 8.0 game ... I think but the art is missing, says bitmap 73 in editor but it come up blank when you open the plane??

Do you have any seprate art for this I can add back to my mod?

Is there any guide on how to install new aircraft art into a mod? I am struggling with this as would like to add a few more odd stuff. I can add al te stats and everything fine.

Game is almost ready to list.

Sure, it's weird they are not in the zip files on the BTS web page.

When you do another update, LCU unit #6784 II US Fighter Cmnd is supposed to rename to V US Fighter Cmnd August 1, 1942. But the name delay field is incorrect,
it is set for 4208 and the program interprets that as 4208 days from the start. It should read 420801. Note that this is inherited from stock, since they all
seem to have the same incorrect data.

GREAT note Nomad.

I just found out that the first upgrade to the Japanese CAVs is screwed up. Will have to fix that as well.

And to add here, I think the Rita is way too powerful. At least make it a SR 5 instead of a SR 4.

I haven't, I am playing the Allies. I was just looking around some and noticed that the Rita is nearly as good as a B-29.
Its arrival is 9/44 and that means it could be out at the start of 1944 or maybe the end of 1943.

And of course the G8N2 Rita has an armor of 2. Now we are getting into B-52 area.

Do you have an older version? Should be May 1945. Not sure on the armor. Will check.

G8N1 Rita is available 9/44.
G8N2 Rita is available 6/45.

The G8N1 upgrades to the G8N2 so once you have researched the N1 version you can then go to the N2 with
no damage to the factories.

We are using version 2.0 of the BTS-H scenario.

I think this is the last time I play a mod scenario.
