Message Log and Tutorial

I upgraded today from CMANO to CMO. I am going back through the Air tutorials. I think it's Air tutorial 6 or 7 (Russian and Chinese Modern Weapons.

I get the special message pop-up, at beginning of Tutorial that describes the Planes and weapons for both the Russians and Chinese. But when I close that pop-up, I'm no longer able to review that information.

The message log has line entry that it displayed the information. but doesnt let me read it. I'm pretty sure in CMANO I could close the pop-up and then go down to the message log during the rest of the scenario to review the information in the Special msgs. I did find the pdfs and html's in the tutorials section. But I'd rather not have to load a separate reader to locate and review. It was handy to just scroll down through the message log.

Below is picture of the message log :

There are 2 versions of this scenario.

Dated in 2024 and with the bug you reported. Flight Tutorial 7 - AAW 5 - Modern Russian and Chinese Weapons.scen

Dated in 2023 and without the bug. Flight Tutorial 7 - AAW 5 - Russian and Chinese Modern Weapons.scen


So you updated to the beta version that includes new tutorial scenarios that in this case is buggy, try with the other version.

Thanks Nikel! Tried the second version and it worked as you said! Thanks again!

Oh, I did update the game, but I didn't realize it was a beta. I simply used the "Check for Updates" button on the games main menu, and it updated.

Thanks!

If you updated normally then you are not using the current beta, your version must be 1328.14

The beta series started with 1328.15 where the new tutorial files are listed, not sure which ones.

https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 1&t=401912

To 1328.18 that is right now the last.

If you want to try it, use just the last.

Yep, The second Tutorial 5 worked and loaded the messages into the Message Log.

Then I went on to the last one (Tutorial 8 Advanced Combat). It seems to be ending prematurely, I see there might be an update in the forums i might try. Thanks for the help.
