Hi Miamieagle.

While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'm not sure if you understand what this thread is for.

It is intended for those that find issues with the new units that are availalbe within the pre-official release 1.03 UPDATE. Similiar to what cw58 and Juggalo have done for East Front and West Front.

Rising Sun will be looked at for the 1.04 UPDATE, no worries.

Iäm sorry Jason Patho I got a little carried away. I just saw a this rare films and I wanted to share them with the comminity. Thank you for the information.

I was able to fix the problem I had with the Rising Sun and patch 103.It seems the original install of Rising  Sun folder got corrupted for reason unknown to me. I just replace it with a backup folder of Rising I have and all is working great again.

I pretty happy with patch 103 and Iäm looking forward for patch 104. Thank you again!

PS I recommend for every member to have a backup install of this game just incase something goes wrong!

All HQ units - graphics need cleaned up

No graphic problems, although most units have incorrect pictures.

NC27 and Type 92 tanks share the same graphic.

No graphic for Battleship, Cruiser, Destroyer, Frigate, Transport, Sub.

This is not a unit issue but in the Crisis in Burma (1942) DCG the campaign is set up so that the Japanese are usually on the defensive.  This is due to an error in the Crisis in Burma Attacker.dat file.  The left hand column of the file represents the percentage chance that the Allies should be the attacking force.  The right column is % chance of Japanese being attackers.  These columns should be reversed so that the Japanese will normally attack (did that by editing the dat file & it appears to work OK).
 
Thanks to Mr. Simonitch for his excellent article on editing DCGs which is viewable in the Manuals folder after installing ver. 1.03

Thanks guys, this helps a lot

Sorry I didn't have time to go into greater detail like cw58 did with East Front, but at least the 3-D unit graphics should be squared away...

Everyone plays only in 3-D anyway....right?[:D]

senerios work ok,but game crashes anytime i try a rising sun campaign game.
