European Air War - The Gen

Multiskin is my guess

In the "EAWTM2" folder there are the two default texture mapping files, "TextMap1.str" and "TextMap2.str". I used the string editor twice and put them together on my desktop: http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/21e0/x9c4ywcoqi8ehinzg.jpg Corresponding lines match. There is...

Super

I have thought about that problem, but I cannot figure out the cause at all.
At times it seems to be intermittent, and it may relate to deck damage or lack of it.
I do not know of we will ever find a solution

Post a screenie to show me this effect

Edit:
I just checked the Saratoga and it does not have an airfield TMod5

There is a "Ray160Patch.zip" in your folder with my working version of the theatre, the new exes, and the runways.dat editors.
The latter might not fit on your screen, but they are sizeable by dragging.

Excellent

Any progress with the Saratoga CTD with a groundstart?

If you add the catapult to a ship then will the height be the same as the height it is on the battleship ?
If not, then new code would have to be written, and more runways configured, and I do not really want to have to do that.

I am having reservations about spending too much more time on the catapult thing. I have it working and I will get the files to Ray. My reservations are because a number of game issues arise because only one plane can be launched. The only way we can have just one plane is to fly the catapult launch...

Bug report. I have been flying a host only multiplayer Ground-start from the Allied carriers in my MB-3 with about eight MB-3s on the deck in total. They are in two lines of MB-3s on the deck. HMS Vic: No problem Long Island: OK Saratoga: CTD on launch Enterprise and Hornet: No CTD but on launch the...

I have got the file, set it up and added the terrain tiles. Are there any other files I need to add. There are a few bugs which need investigating, but I will report back on that. What I need are the names and locations of the airbases which are ships with catapult launches so that I can have a shot...

We should just focus on the battleship. Once we get that right we can so the sub. With the battleship I would assume that it is selected as a base, with the single aircraft, and you launch using the catapult. In this situation piloting manually does not use the catapult code, but it kicks in with AI...

This morning's work ;) http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/5955/2j3s3tf5e8bffwfzg.jpg In the exe there is now a variable "RaiseMe" with the default set to 58.0 It can now be read from an external "Carrier.mpf" file which can be in the root folder or a theatre folder. In the screenie...

In the table there are 32, over half of which we have never used. The order matches the original order,hence the 0, 10, 9, 6 ..... for the 3dz numbers. In the source code there is a "point over carrier" check which tests if a point is over a runway type 8. If it is true then certain things...

I found the height setting code which has a fixed value (58.0) added to the plane height. It occurred in 32 places ;) My next step was to make this a variable, so that it can be changed, and it works. There are some issues with wheel brakes if you make it too high- they cannot be turned off if it is...
