RHS PWHEX file v4.05

http://www.sendspace.com/file/vio8oo

These are no longer available?

O.

PWHEX v4.15 is the latest and should still be there I will check
which map panels are you after I will re sent to Host

PS RHS needs a home to host file full time instead of a temp host I think now we have lost RougeUMSC site for updates and its to big for Spookie

RHS v4.22 micro update for all scenarios posted
RHS v4.15 PWHEX posted

Changes
These files update 4.21 to 4.22 level.

Purely eratta, the worst one is removal of a duplicate unit. Also a Japanese AR is date corrected. And two artillery companies have formation field corrected.


All six mods aircraft data file is attached. This ONLY corrects an art pointer to use an art panel I didn't realize we had. ALL other files remain the same as 4.20.

thanks for the offer will keep in mind - Mifune is attempting to set up seperate box by the weekend that the RHS team can control - will let you know how we go
but there is nothing stopping us hosting on your site as well - how much can you host and whats the best way to get files to you - to big for mail

I can set you up your own doamin and let you have at least 500megs of space?? This way you can maintain it yourself. The other option would be to anonymous FTP the files to:
ftp://ftp.akdreemer.com/incoming
and I will post them on my website for you....

An offer I cant refuse thats very generous please set up the Domain and send access details

Mifune has contacted me and we are working on using my site as a mirror, much like Andrew does now for CHS. Lets wait and see what he is able to work out this weekend. I previously set up a sub-domain as rhs.akdreemer.com.

RHS v4.23 midro update all scenarios posted

changes
This single file (per scenario) updates the 4.2 set to 4.23 level. It is purely eratta. It makes Korps Insulinde an airborne unit, makes Japanese EABs have a better kind of engineers for their purpose, adds Santa Barbara, and redefines Palembang and a few other points to help AI understand them better.

There will be a new pwhex file in a few hours - this will correspond to a new map - designed to help the AI in Japan re oil and resources. It is also more correct - distinguishing between rail main line and secondary lines. It will work with any maps - but a new map should follow soon. The outlieing islands rail is all road. Aomori is main line, but Ominato is secondary line. The east side rail line via Sendai is also secondary.

RHS v4.23 Pwhex posted

changes
This file changes the railroads in Japan. ALL rail hexes on secondary islands (Kyushu, Shikoku, Hokkaido and Sakhalin) and SOME rail hexes on the big island (Honshu) are changed to roads. In addition, at the top of Honshu, Aomori is changed from road to rail while Ominato (which will be renamed Mutsu some day) is changed from rail to road. The rail line down the East side of Honshu through Hitachi and Niigata is now road. And tiny little rail lines on penninsulas are now roads.

In Andrew Brown map code, "road" means "secondary rail line" and/or "primary road." Rail means "primary rail line" and/or "major trunk highway." Further, "trail" mostly means "isolated secondary road" and/or "very limited capacity narrow gage railroad."

This pwhex file MAY be used right now with ongoing or future games. However, the changes will NOT be apparent on the map. I have no problem understanding that the secondary lines are where they are - but I have memorized the map of Japan and I made the changes - so it is easier for me perhaps is normal. If you just think "secondary islands and the east coast route are secondary" it is good enough for most purposes. Cobra will release updated map art when he gets a chance.

These changes - aside from being more correct - will help the AI with routing of oil and resources (that is, limit its tendency to saturate Osaka and denude other locations).
If you play Japan as a human player, unload oil on any secondary island or port on Honshu not on a primary line - particularly if it is not already full of oil - and it will "leak" to Osaka more slowly. It appears that while oil and resources DO move "instantaneously" (in 12 hour phases) to points AI needs them, they do so less often over roads than over rail lines. This is apparent from gross data generated running the game into mid war under AI control.

I am running a test to see if I can force AI to move more oil, resources, fuel and supply out of United States (Salt Lake City in RHS)? If it succeeds longer term, I will implement it. Right now this location (and Colon Panama) saturate. Players can send ships to Panama (AI almost does not) - but they cannot send them to United States. We might also create a rail line from "Salt Lake City" to "New Orleans" and let players get the supplies there - but that is a more radical solution - and I prefer forcing AI to empty United States - if I can.

RHS digital map changes - Japanese rail and road changes to go with the PWHEX file

RHS V4.24 micro update all scenarios posted

changes

This file - for all RHS scenarios - only modifies economics in the USA - and renames Ominato to Mutsu.

The economic test indicates that we can force United States to supply more. I removed "secret supply" from US coastal cities (except San Diego - which is on the map edge)
and modified US and Canadian economic assets so they produce, and are subject to bombing and capture - but work properly. Canada in particular has more industry at Vancouver and Victoria. Santa Barbara is gone - it prevents collecting shippable supplies at Los Angelus.

Note Cobra has issued a further modified map art set - which corrects the name of Ominato to Mutsu - makes the rail art road art in that hex - and adds missing economic markers to RHS standards.

Downloaded 4.2 - do I need 4.21, 22, 23 and 24 or is it enough to download just 4.24 now?

You need 4.20 for the 4.2 file set.

4.21 upgrades a single art pointer for an Allied plane and is optional.

4.22 upgrades ship and location files and is a good idea.

4.23 is out of date.

4.24 is just the location file - replacing 4.23 - and is also a good idea. But it isn't critical - it is best for AI games. It does give you a Dutch airborne unit able to drop.

The critical thing no matter the version is the new PWHex file - it makes Japan economics work better! Map art is also available for it now.

I have downloaded the changes to the digital maps, but now have a dotted white line running from hex 36,58 to hex 71,58.

but now have a dotted white line running from hex 36,58 to hex 71,58.

thats the Equator line
