RtW: Add-On Pack 1

[Bombardment]

About health in the europe scenario, why does have UK a monopoly on the resource fish? Even if you conquer Malta and Gibraltar you will never get them unlike you are italian/spanish or conquer them too. Norway should have fish and crabs, russia plenty of wheat. USA all of them, the really need it because they have not much space.

Played as Japan, the Zero and British Hurricane graphics are not that hot. I have seen some Zero and British fighter graphics on Civfanatics site they will let anyone use if you give the artist credit. This is a great mod and deserves the best units graphics. Just a thought.

Any way so far as I have played this is a good mod.

I am playing version .03 patch. Beta 2 hope it works I know you recomended 02 patch. Guess we will see.

I just hate seeing the biplanes used for hurricanes and the looks like the the plane Henry Ford used in the Battle of the bulge to spot for the Germans as a AM6 Zero.

Pacific map. Beta 2.

If you are attacking a city that has one defending land unit left and some aircraft, there is a bug if you kill that defender by bombardment. The land unit dies leaving the city empty except for the planes. If you then try and move a land unit into that city - you can not capture it even though it has no defenders inside the city, because of the prescence of the aircraft..

Unable to reproduce. Maybe Solver's fixes have resolved this (I've recently added them, but not in beta 2).

Are you playing beta 2 of the add-on? Both mentioned aircraft have correct graphics (from CFC incidentally).

This is the first time I have played using random starts for historic events. As soon as I finish this game I will start another one and see what happens.

Did you save and reload between those two dates?

One thing I just noticed is that the random events mode re-rolls when the events occur if you reload a save game.

Yes I saved after the first event occurred and reloaded the following day.

Hot Seat problem

Look like there is a problem with Host Seat MP mode.
When I start hot seat game it stops switching sides after first round.

Japan 36 scenario. Beata 2, patch 03, beata 2 applied after the patch. Playing as Japan historical.

The zero graphic is a green overhead wing fixed landing gear

the hurricane is a biplane

the tank destroyer had a german emblam on it

I can't enter a square with an american city, after 12/7/41 of course and we are at war, I can't attack Guam

the left hand pass on the far left of the map between China and the Brits, is blocked with an american bomber and fort, will not let me by. Destroyed the fort with bombers and will not let land units enter the square and the American bomber is just parked there.

Sorry.

There's been some weird reports on BtS 3.03 of different graphics to expected. Maybe you've been hit by this.

The zero and hurricane definitely have unique graphics of the correct aircraft.

The tank destroyer graphic is of the German Stugg. It's going to have a German symbol on it.

I can't reproduce the bomber example above, but a similar bug was reported earlier with fighters. I believe something in Solver's patch (which I've included now in the dev build) fixes this.

Just go into world builder and delete it.

Where's the Add on?

I went to the official RTW site and I don't see any downloads. Clicked the download and nothing.

[lalanbotimer]

Thank you, but now I can't get the
folder to deleted win I browse to it.
I try the other method.

I got it to install by following the instructions, then opening the RTW add on folder that was created inside the RTW mod folder and copying and pasting each folder from the Add on to the main folder. Works for me

Someone suggested earlier(and I think it's a great idea) that there be seperate upgrade paths. For the germans I could see something like:

Medium tank:starts with PZIV--->Panther
Heavy tank:Tiger--->Tiger2
(probably need a new tech to faciliate the Panther and Tig2)

The PVIV could maybe be set to strength of 28 or 29, with a movement of 3. The Panther coud be at 30 with a movement of 4 to reflect it's greater speed, but cost much more.

Keeping the tank lines seperate would give the ability to still build mediums when you get heavy tank tech, which is more accurate anyway since Germany continued to build PZIVs for a long time. I know that this suggestion might seem like too much, but I would welcome the depth it would bring. Don't get me wrong though, the scenario as it stands now is fantastic. It's all I have played=)

I have seen the aircraft-only-left-in-a-city-can't-move-in bug as well, but I did what Dale suggested: I went into the Worldbuilder, put a unit there, then deleted it.

Thanks Bombardment

I didn't realize that even though the
installer didn't actually delete the folder from
the tree that it didn't create one and went
ahead and installed over the old files.
I lost all my saves though. Doesn't matter,
Germany attacked my east Balkans in 41
when I moved up to fourth in size and since
he sent a stack of ten tigers after me and
20 Pzk IVs I was dead meat anyway. I
do miss my BTS save though. Is the
north sea oil on the map somewhere
or did Dale just "fix" the import to Canada
and England? Thanks again for your help.
This is the only computer game I still play
and since I started with the Boardgame
Civ the development has always interested
me. Its a shame that the rush that BS Gates
has forced on the market, has lowered the
"simulation" value.
