I've got facility #2346 without any image and submarine #46 as in second photo(post 594).

I am seeing the same. My PC is connected to the internet when playing and am running the most current version of the game. I wonder if the reason the files/pictures are not downloading is I've not played a scenario with them in it yet. Will need to find a scenario with a THAAD and give that hypothesis a try.

I just added THAAD to my test mission and no pic was downloaded.

Hmm. I'm not sure what is happening with the images. Here's what I suggest: We will be releasing a new image set around 30 April, which will ( I believe) have over 1000 new images. I'm going to continue to work with Warfare Sims to trouble shoot in the meantime. However, for right now, I'm going to let this problem with the 30 December packages simmer for a bit, and see what problems (if any) occur with the upcoming 30 April 2020 release.

CV60,

I've checked my ...\C-MO\DB\Images\DB3000 folder and I have a Submarine_46.jpg.
However, my image is not the one you show in your post 594. It is like
Sardaukar's.
I then brought up the Database Viewer which points at the Build 483 database.
(Note that your picture is pointing at the Build 473 database.)
When I search on "romeo mod", I only get one entry:
#46 - Type 033G Wuhan [PL-633 Romeo Mod] (China - 1985)

This is not the same database entry as your "#46 - S 351 Romeo Mod (China - 1985)"
I see the Sardaukar image I have in Submarine_46.jpg.

Just a guess, but is there some kind of database synchronization issue
associated with this puzzle? Those who keep up with the latest database
don't get updates?

Hope this helps.

This is my exact same situation!

Mine looks like this:

Jumping into this topic myself. This too is what I have for this particular db item.

I don't have Facility_2346.jpg either.

again, likewise here!

Can we go back to manual downloads like we use to, or have the option to do so from Warfaresims?

+1

+1 too.

For 2 reasons:

- it's only way for people for multiple reasons who play sim without internet connection to have updated database pictures.
- it is best way to easily know if your images and descriptions are up to date or not.

I like the idea of manual downloads. BTW can users share links for images? I have hundreds of images which were missing or I found better ones.

If you have better images, please send them to kgambit an I and we may include them in future updates. If possible, include the links where you got them.

I truly appreciate the work that people (CV60, kgambit, and others) have put into the massive DB that comes with this simulation, however, as I have been updating my versions of the game as they are released, one of the things I have noticed - MOSTLY because I have been looking and paying closer attention- is that with these official updates such as version 1.01.11431, the DB's both cold-war era and modern are downloaded with these updates.

Having previously noticed I don't have 'latest' updates based on certain images, like facility_2346 and submarine_46, when the official updates like 1.01.11431 are released and the DB's come with said update, I have gone and looked for those two particular images to see if my install has them, and with 1.01.11431 neither image was a part of that update.

Am I correct in assuming they are supposed to be? or am I just "making an ass"?

Hi everyone,
I bought CMO a week ago and installed it but I only see the following files..
I used to have CMANO and manually update the DB, is there some way I can update CMO or do I just need to wait for the 30th April patch?

Thanks

@1nutworld - No you're not just "making an ass". Unfortunately I don't know (yet) exactly why the year-end updates aren't showing up. Steve's tracking it down.

@darkhelix - Based on the two screen shots you provided, I think the problem is that you may have deselected the option to display images - check your game options.

@kgambit I can see DB images but not all of them..

Thank you for letting me know that the issue is being addressed. I know that much of the work specifically regarding DB images and such are voluntary, so the last thing I would wish is that comments be negative, and frustration mounts as though it's not being appreciated or recognized because in my opinion, being able to "see" what unit I am working with helps me feel as though I can get a better feel for what it is, how it works, and what it does, instead of just being a bunch of data that I fully can't comprehend the usage of. If THAT makes any sense- and I hope it does.

are there any news on sight about the 30th april´s patch of DB´s?
