There is any posibility of rolling it in a already running Dababes game?
Only the device list is altered.... [8D]
Yes, sir. It can update ongoing games. In PBEM, Japan has to run its turn first with the new data, then the Allies. And both have to have the same file and answer yes to the start query. But that's it.
Both BabesLite and DaBigBabes have been updated with this and nothing else since the map thing back in October; other data is good since August; Lite bomb update on Nov.22, DBB bomb update on Nov.23, so if you download on or after those dates you should be good to boogie.
@blitzk
I'll go for it if you want to.

Thanks for heads up! Almost forgot to update my ongoing DaBigBabes. [8D]
handy feature....a nice improvement from the old days when new device data would force a restart. [:)]

Yes! [:D]
You are the best JWE !
One question, we run the replay with the old database, and then upgrade or run the combat replay with the database already overwrited ?

Replay was generated by the old database, the old turn was run under the old database, so that's all you are gonna see.
You need to "run" a turn under the new database to see new database results. Game engine needs to grasp and process the new data and won't do that untill the next exe 'phase'. Does this make sense? If it doesn't, is there anything I can do I to make it clearer?

Then I will run the standard upgrade method.
1) Japanese runs Combat Replay with old version
2) Japanese saves without orders, then upgrade to the next version
3) Allied watched CR with old version
4) Japanese upgrades and input orders with the new version
5) Allied upgrades and input orders with the new version
6) Japanese runs new turn with new version
One last question, the file with the devices is wpd028.dat ?
Thanks anyway !
