Sand has run out of the hourglass - and Cobra and I are still coordinating art with files. Also - he wants to add a few locations in Aus due to Forum suggestions. It will be another day for the final version of 6.63

However - this is very close -

Japanese Sungari river fleet added.

Japanese 40cm rockets (famous at Iwo Jima and on Okinawa) are added.

Always adding LSTs and Sea Truks.

And fixing eratta.

This version should have New Guinea right - even to the flags

Last chance for additions/eratta before freezing.

The frozen level will be 6.64 - ETA two days.

This adds locations in Australia, fixes cruiser respawn, period.

It is just technical stuff now - we will finish this - provided no one comes up with more to add!

RHS v6.635 Pwhex set final posted at send space

changes
This should be the last pwhex until we change something!

It corrects a minor communication code on New Guinea

allows the Norman River to be used to sail to Normanton in the Gulf of Carpentera

adds a trail to a village East of Darwin

and adds a minor RR (= road) to Normanton from the East Coast of Australia
(and a LCF from Normanton to Karumba)

As always there are 3 files, normal pwhex, Panama pwhex, and RHSPW so you can get normal back if you have changed. Note that Panama pw can be used if you believe the canal should not be open at all in the game (i.e. as in CHS).

more changes with v6.635
Once again, I hope this is the difinitive final release of pwhex Level 6.

It fixes an error re Maningrida Island - it needs to be coded as coast for the port to function properly -

and three hexes of the Wyndham Road needed to be upgraded from trail.

[You could move along the road - and supplies moved - because it was a "sandwich" of road/trail hexes barely permitting movement. Now you will move faster and get more supplies.]

I did not code the Victoria River to Timber Creek - which would be more correct - because art is out of sync - but I did code the Kolyma River - which has no art at all - up by Magadan. We can live without art - the river shows properly in the blue hex sides - and it does matter. This river is 1.5 times greater in flow than the Mississippi and it is up this river the gold and other resources come from. There is only a poor trail to Verkhniy and Myakit - which represent more than a few towns - and the river is navigable all the way shown (and really goes on up into Siberia - where for logistic reasons no one will go - but isn't navigable up there - so I didn't bother to plot it).

I also added small AKs to work this river system, and transferred on Navy converted yacht (gunboat/escort) and one police/coast guard vessel to Magadan. I put a combined navy/border guard base in Magadan and a squadron of patrol seaplanes. Late in the war an independent group of naval bombers appears here as well.

install only map panel 011 out of the v6.64 set and install map panel 010 out of the
v5.64 set this is because of the edge channels in version 6

I have not seen a v5.635 PWHEX set yet

RHS v6.63 comprehensive update posted at send space

changes
This adds many locations in Australia, some LSTs, two locations in Siberia,
corrects some eratta, and adds air groups (43 RAAF and 2 Soviet Naval ones).
Probably other stuff as well.

Having problems tracking data on Old Soviet river craft - but mainly just integrating and eratta punching.

This is not the 5.63 as planned - it is an interim. 6.64 is the version we will freeze. Cobra still working up art in conjunction with this - and we are still working on some locations - and ship art for Japanese and Soviet Amur Flotillas. Some hope we may finish tomorrow.

RHS v6.636 PWHEX set and v6.636 micro update posted at send space

map changes related will follow soonest

changes
Medium important location issues have caused a dual release of location files
and pwhex files. To insure coordination, both are called 6.636 - they work together.

This fixes:

a) Location of Galapagos Islands (which were in the Level 7 place - middle of the ocean for Level 6)

b) Broken Rail Line between Darwin and Katherine

c) Incorrect locations for two villages near Darwin (Millingimbi and Manningrida - should we say M & M??)

d) Codes Millingimbi as an atol

e) Codes the Victoria River as navigable to Timber Creek - which is now a minor port

f) Puts initial fuel at Magadan

g) Minor adjustments to new locations as we learn more about them.

Because some of these matter - this microupdate is issued without waiting for other work that will occur today.

There will be either a comprehensive update 6.637 or we will go to 6.40 - if Cobra and I get the art worked out entirely - possibly today - otherwise tomorrow.

RHS v6.642 and v5.642 PWHEX sets posted at send space

changes
t appears there may have been a previous 5.642 release - if so this replaces it.
Those files didn't work - neither did a set I made last night. THESE files do work.

This completes the comprehensive release of data and pwhex at x.642 level - everything is in sync and working. There remains some eratta to wash out and some minor vessels (the largest of which are US LSTs) to add. A significant number of Russian river gunboats need adding - art for them is done at last and I need to create ships around them. And Allied PT boats, and minesweepers, need to convert to multiple vessel form. [PT boats come in 3s, MS in pairs. The former usually operated together, the latter pretty much had to operate in pairs - a sweep being towed between two vessels. [Otherwise they used paravanes - just like any ship can - my APA ran with paravanes and riflemen to shoot the mines]

Note that this pwhex set should REPLACE all older pwhex sets - because it is significantly more "honest" (true to art) and for technical reasons - broken communications lines being fixed helps the AI a great deal - and won't hurt you when moving either.
