TWW 3.0.9? NTSH (ax) v (al) ubernaut Game 4

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut Yeah, that seems right. Your British Move didn't set up anything spicy in the US's turn.

Hi guys sorry if I post here, I know it is not the proper thread but you are kind and always reply because this thread is active so...

Question about ADVANCED HULLS, manual says cruisers get another +2 and says +3 total
so why they rolled with 2 for each cruiser ?
it seems like the +2 of advanced delete the +1 of improved hulls....

I can post a TSVG proving it, maybe an issue related to the xml correcting AircraftCarr. bug ?

[Nothingtoseehere]

@malmessi This was a change from 2.8 to 3.0. The AA from Advanced Hulls was reduced from 3 to 2, but on the other hand, most AA units, including the teched-up cruisers, got their AA rolls changed from shooting only in the first round to shooting every round that you keep them.

@Nothingtoseehere
Thank you as always !

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere hey just realized i inadvertently upgraded the map just now not sure if it is actually any different but yeah just heads up on that

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere seems to be working fine lmk if u want me to revert or update on your end i pretty much know what im doing but yeah

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut: If the patch replaces all files, it will overwrite the changes that fixed the carrier bug. So I guess we can patch and then replace the game XMLs again. More elegantly, we can try to get the patched XML into the GitHub files.

[Nothingtoseehere]

I just tested, and the patch does replace the XMLs back. I already replaced them with the patched ones. Let me know if you did too.

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere lol dang that’s crazy would have expected those patches were incorporated in any updates

@lafayette can we get the patches incorporated and push another update? bc it sounds like the latest update would have actually broken the map for anyone that caught this latest update

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere in the mean time which files need to be patched? i'm not even sure now lol

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut You need to replace the XMLS (or at least the 3.0 one) in the ...\total_world_war\map\games folder, with the ones that you can get from this post.

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut: Funnily enough, further in that thread, they discuss putting it in the GitHub repo. Seems to me that something went wrong there.

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere well the other thing that happened there was we replaced a few problematic images for vichy france sounds like maybe that’s all that was fixed in the and not the previous fixes @lafayette

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere should be able to replace and proceed later today thanks

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere im getting this error now when i try the patched file are you sure the unaltered repository version has the carrier bug?

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut
I guess it's this issue with the file name

@zlefin said:

@nothingtoseehere said in Can we fix TWW?:

@zlefin The file name has an additional . at the end. I had to remove it and replace the original file then it worked and I tested that carriers no longer get replaced with damaged carriers without the tech.

Ok, odd how that happened; I fixed it and put in an uploaded version with the proper name. I don't think lafay has been on so it shouldn't be a problem for anyone.

Try removing the '.' at the end.

[Nothingtoseehere]

You could also just use my patched file:Total_World_War_Dec1941_3.0.xml

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere file name is/was correct still giving same error wen i try ur file from here

[ubernaut]

@Nothingtoseehere ok i have idea what the difference is but i restored from backup and it seems to be working so it would be the be the same xml we have been playing this game with the entire time lmk if u think it is safe to proceed bc im lost as to wat actually was the problem even here

[Nothingtoseehere]

@ubernaut If you have the XML from before the patch from backup, it should be safe to proceed.
