RHS v6.656 all scenarios posted at send space and avail at Web Site
version 5 has not come through yet
changes
We had a problem with corruption in all scenarios except EOS at x.655 level -
so this update is critical. Devices were shifted by one in Japanese cities.

We have some other refinements and eratta - and the rework of EOS for efficiency by Blitzk. Details on the RHS thread.

I took the time to run validation tests - and this should be working fine. I also took the time to rework Celebes - and mitigated the supply sink issue at Kendari rather effectively.

I will continue to develop utilities for players and work on a turn with Mifune. Fingers crossed nothing critical shows up.

RHS v1.6 resource util posted at send space

changes
This version extends national analysis to all types of supply and resources

and also calculates aggregate national production plus off map totals for

comparison to Axis totals.

Interestingly, these totals are on the order of 10:1 advantage in some categories -
which may be the correct range.

Note that as the game progresses, two trends will occur:

1) HI centers which change hands will be divided by half each time, and their production (and requirements) if operational will correspondingly decline;

2) Damaged resource, oil and HI will repair up over time. This is set in the US in such a way the process will cause these centers, and their corresponding production, to increase.

War damage will tend to reduce on map production, but near the map edge repair of locations meant to simulate growth of the US and Canadian war economies will tend to offset this. The reduced production areas will tend to be Axis, the increased production areas will generally be Allied.

The utility shows initial and total values - but does not show war damage values.
Similarly, it does not show what supply sinks or operational units eat. These are gross figures and they feed everything.

Note: daily analysis of isolated points indicates to me the manual may be out of sync with what happens. Many points seem not to produce any of certain categories of resources or supplies - and if they produce something (usually supply points or resource points - they do so at far less than the rate we are given. Possibly 1/30 of the rate! IF this observation is confirmed - we may be able to shrink supply sinks.

Do NOT use pwhex versions x.655 or x.642, period. Use a backup copy of x.641 - or download a new one.
In a few hours there will be an x.656 version. The two versions x.655 an x.642 have a problem that will crash WITP if you startup from not running. They appear to work if you never shut WITP down. [They DO work - but who wants to never shut down their computer or a particular program?]

Any advice on what is mandatory, desirable, optional, or extraneous?

Mifune created a Handbook it in a couple of folders - download and read should explain everything -if you need more just yell

Cobra Aus

It's somewhat out of date.

[el cid again]

It is updated - but was never complete. He is expanding some sections - outlining more definitions.

RHS v6.657 all senarios and the resource util posted at send space (will update Web site shortly)

changes
This mainly handles eratta, reworks Celebes some more (and Eastern DEI),
converts Lapwing MS to three sub classes - and dual ship units for the MS version -
and corrects a land based bomber to level bomber (from torpedo bomber).
It will sync with a new pwhex set - but the new set is not important - it will just add trails, upgrade roads to RR or correct mismatched hex sides (etc).

RHS v6.658 all scenarios posted at send space + Resource util v6.658 + required multi ship paks (Note there is 1 more PC change to come)
also avail at RHS Web Site
changes
This is a redo of 6.657 with these changes:

1) Nanyo (South Seas) Regiments appear in 1943 vice never

2) Aussie Independent companies and demi-companies reworked

3) USS Langley and USS Pelecan given spotter aircraft

4) A Soviet MS given its own bitmap pointer

Note this last means you MUST download the new two ship Allied MS art package.
A number of MS are now going to appear in 2 ship art form even though the ships are not actually in pairs yet. But that is what they look like working. Soviet, Admirable and Lapwing classes ARE pairs already on the Allied side.

changes
This is revised to sync with new map art - very slight trail changes.

I have a new theory of below trail movement coding - it is implemented near Buka/Shortlands in the Solomans and Western New Britain.

I have created a installer for the ART for RHS, it does not include either maps, pwhex or scenarios

I have created a installer for the ART for RHS, it does not include either maps, pwhex or scenarios

can we have some details such as what is installed and were
and is this aimed at a first time user

We are looking at creating or getting a RHS team member to create an installer once all the dust settles and versions 5 and 6 are frozen in titanium for long term play
the would require a full install of everything into their correct folders and overwriting
with a choice of which drive\folder to install to.........

at the moment there are too many files getting changed to do via a auto system - you would have to create an install every day

I added the newest PWhex 6.xxx to an ongoing RHS CVO game, and the "path" to South Atlantic entry point no longer lines up with the map I have. On the southwest corner of the map, the path the ships are taking no longer follow the edges of the map, and the path they are following is at a roughly 45 degree angle to the map now.
Was loading the "summer map panel" a necessity for this apparent change?

[Bliztk]

Basically it`s a first try to compile a comprehensive RHS installer.

It`s planes art + ship art. It should install in the War in the Pacific directory

Maps are not included. Neither PWHEX or Scenarios

[CobraAus]

No - we have not done any changes lately to the channels at least Sid has not told me has
but you should always update map panels when they come out

what CVO scenario version are you running, should be V6.658 with v6.657 Pwhex

Sid may know more info on this problem

I am using that Pwhex file since it was released, and I have V6.658, but IIRC, that should have no ability to alter sea lanes, only oob's??

[CobraAus]

that should have no ability to alter sea lanes, only oob's??

the PWHEX file IS the sea lanes and has nothing to do with OOB's

Sid has added some LCF locations which effect map panels 2-6-12
these panels have now been posted at Send Space as RHS summer v6.658 LCF panels

changes
LCF in 74/37 Kunishiri

76/36 Etorofu

77/36 Uruppu Jima

Note that it is possible to march to 77/36 from Hokkaido. Kunishiri, Etorofu and Uruppu Jima will participate in the economy of Hokkaido/Japan - being serviced by minor coastal traffic - as IRL - but disguised as a trail system.

LCF in 58/44 Osumi

and

57/40 Masan

This means it is not required to send ships to these islands to have them automatically participate in the economies of Japan and Korea - nor to feed troops based on them.

Samo
LCF in 96/113 95/113 95/112

Sid

Potential Problem
Warning ALLWAYS install map changes in release order
EG the changes for Celebes also effected panel 6 if installed AFTER install of LCF panels
the LCF changes would not show up as they have been overwriten by an older panel

To my knowledge, it has been that way for some time. The map art does not match the actual route. I only discovered it using F6 in the game.
