Hi damien?

This is what i am doing
Dowloading patch

Extracting it says files will be downloaded to: so I believe I am right in extracting to : c:\Matrix Games\War In The Pacific Admiral's Edition -thats what I put in the block

I then get asked for a password

Im doing something stupid!

It asks for a password? As Michael says there is no password protection on the file, and there is none on mine. This is what I do and it has none ... can you extract to another folder and then cut and paste them over ?

damien

many, many thanks for efforts -I did not see most of that -BUT -I think I got it this time!
Game says version 1096a -so away we go

No worries mate, have a good one [;)]

In a PBEM, does the Japanese player need to install the hot fix first, or can the Allied player install the hot fix first?

Thanks -

The install seemed to go ok, but game menu screen says version 1096 (not 1096a). Is this ok or did I screw something up ?

What does the date stamp say (right next to the version number)?

To n01487477-Where did you get the icon for the patch(bundle of books)? When I DLed it all I got was a file folder which I sent to a zip file.

When I extracted it, I got the same "unable to find pw data" error message.

Help!! Thanks, Hugh Browne

just unpack the files into your WITP AE main directory. It is no setup as you might be used to.

Mine says the same......thanks T

Once the hotfix has "settled", I'll pop back into the office and post it up in our usual way, but as our production offices are closed at the moment the quickest way to release it was for Joe to post it on the forum.

Nice coordination. [:)] Most companies by far would simply be "closed".

J-Does #11 of the fixes mean that Allied ASW is going to be better? In the game(s) I'm playing, I'm up to 5/42 with nary an Allied ASW kill by ANY means.

Thanks, Hugh Browne

Define "better". At least a dozen people have tried that and failed.

Don-By "better" I mean the ability of Allied ASW,air & sea, to score hits and sink enemy subs.

I don't understand your comment about " a dozen...". I'm not trying to be a smart ass, I just don't know what you mean by that comment. HB

What I mean is that subs and ASW combat have been reviewed multiple times by perhaps a dozen folks and no one yet has been able to define a set of criteria to be met by the code such that it is right.

Not trying to be rude, but you must understand that non-specific terms and vague goals are of little help with a complex issue. Everyone has a different idea of what is "right" but no one can specify how to acquire such rightness. By this I mean a specific guideline of "what is right" and a set of programming changes to acquire such rightness. What we have endured for years is a continuing series of "too much", "too little", "too strong", "too weak" and the ever popular "t'ain't right".

If I may be so bold, how in the hell can anyone specify and program By "better" I mean the ability of Allied ASW,air & sea, to score hits and sink enemy subs.
