Fremen,[/align]on the preferences window in the game is possibility "Add 1.60 database changes ..." like it was in the WitP older started games ... How it affects WitM game ???[/align]
The WITM database is all new and very different than WITP.
I think (keep in mind this is a mod make by some modders not programers) select this option not affect the game.
HOWEVER, because i don't know the "Add 1.60 database changes" do really, it's possible that funtion changes again the OOB to WITP engine. In this case the mod will be surely destroyed.
I like this a lot - Fremen are you looking for help updating leaders, pilots, etc? I am no expert but I can do some online legwork and tedious data entry to at least get some reasonable names or modified values in. You can PM me if you prefer.

I have now two friends working on pilots database, thanks anyway.
However, i don't have any person working on leaders, may be you can help us.
Main focus would be italian leaders to navy and german/italian leaders to land units.
Don't know what happened to my last (and extensive) post..
To say it faster, fremen, do you have a file format I can use to provide you names of pilots and leaders ?
Place where I can help (at first thought):
_ French units and pilots (they should be there, at least after Nov 1942...)
_ German fighter pilots (having scored at least a victory)
_ US fighter pilots (having scored at least a victory)
_ everything related to Malta
_ Italian sub captains
_ U-Boote captains
_ Beaufighter and Beaufort anti-shipping units
Every help is welcome Amiral! Thanks.
The U-Boote kaleun are in the mod. Every german submarine have the correct captain in the historical date. Of course, if the player decide change the commander of a sub, the captain pool is japanese.
Would be great you can send me a list of italian sub captains and US Fighter pilots, then i will add to mod.
A list of french air units (in allied side of course) is also needed.
Waiting the revised A2A combat engine, the future 1.2 version new features/corrections are:
-german PC SG-14 added.
-german PCs TA-9, TA-10, TA-11 and TA-12 added.
-german DD Hermes ex-V.Georgios added.
-two italian CL imp-Garibaldi class duplicated ERASED.
-Msus base now start in allied hands.
-Trieste have now a Repair shipyard.
-Some british squadrons have now the correct upgrade path.
Pending work:
-A2A combat and maneuver ratios. To RHS Standards.
-Pilot and leaders.
-Devices.
i see one thing needed changing
many units are 100+ or 200+ or even 300+ against TOE
i don't remeber exactly but one of armoured units was 190/300 against toe
it means toe needs revision
such units will never get any replacement
check it
it may be 15-20% of units that face such problem

Thanks Sneer. Get the problem and you right.
Fortunately are only a few axis units. The problem when you work in a mod during months and months....always forget check something.
