Re: No Camels

My files are the same size- the H and the L are identical apart from their names. I converted the TPC files to PCX and they look OK http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/a7d8/q0ey8sggmeq7owgzg.jpg To me this suggests that we do not have the correct 3dz files, other than the shadow. All the files came fro...

Re: No Camels

The problem at my end seems to be the TMod54 3dz files. https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/7822/mri66j2dtymdfptzg.jpg They all point to a "Gcamel" TCP, but the only one that looks like a camel is the shadow. In my screenie I had made a "truklist.mpf" with all ten values 54. I flew...

No Camels

In all versions that I have of IRAQ in my various PCs I cannot see camels :(
The TMod is 54 and I set up a truck convoy.

What is interesting is that the shadow is a camel, but the object looks like a jeep.

Re: Host-only video

Moggy have you checked it out? It should help you when you want to try host-only Let me know if there is anything that you need ;) When I made the video I was using a "MP only" version of the exe, so when the game launched it went into the MP screen. At GameRanger it is even quicker becaus...

Host-only video

My Radeon graphics card update came with a built in recorder, so a made a video of a host-only game :) I tried uploading to the FB page, and it seemed to work. However, the FB video quality was poor, so I removed the post :( Edit: I learned how to upload things to UTube, so I did, and it plays well ...

Re: Transparency files

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...

Re: Carrier height

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 :(

Re: Carrier height

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.

Re: Carrier height

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.

Re: Carrier height

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...
