Also found the same when trying to load the trafalga. Certainly not whinging, would like to use those platforms is all, great mod, love it! I ran the CIWS_CADS doctrine through the SC Doctrine Checker and it came up with three errors, i assume this would be the same for the trafalga, maybe this is info that the devs know about already, or maybe not, but i assume this is why the DDG is not loading in RA.

Common?

Thanks for that Fearless. Guys i've done three full uninstalls and reinstalls along with the RA mod, the Udaloy still won't load once a mission has been created for it? English text file is still missing and won't load the platform.

Anyone else had this issue? suggested ways to get around it? I've waited 5 years to be able to use another surface vessel now I can't get the thing to work, how frustrating!

BTW< all the sub work fine! expect the British one, that has the same issue as the Udaloy.

Help needed.

Cheers,

captcav, what version of dw are you using ?
The RA mod works on english installs, if you have a localized version (german or french) then there could be problems.

No no it's the english version alright, running the 1.04 update patch. Funny thing, in the DW root directory where I ran the two batch files to upload the RA mod I had a look in the general DW interfaces folder, inside all the playable interfaces have their sub-folders which contain all the info needed to convert to a playable, but the Udaloy and the British Sub does not, just a stand alone file, no sub-folder, it's as though the batch isn't translating over the info.

I'm guessing that nobody else has this problem?

After Unraring the files, would it be helpful to do a manual drag and drop of the Udaloy interface folder from the RA files into the DW root director (interface) folder? I don't mind messing around with it cause I do this a lot with the internal files, just interested to know if anyone has a quickest fix solution.

Cheers Guys,

Since RA is not mod friendly, the best option would be to do a fresh DW install, apply the 1.04 patch and then install RA over it. :yep:

Yeah I did that a few times last night, but I still think files were left behind after the uninstall. Reason i say that is cause when I installed DW ran the 1.4 patch then ran the batches for RA inside the batches it kept asking me to overwrite existing files... This tells me not everything was taken off in the install.

What was your method of install goldorak? Would Lwami be playing interference?

Captcav

Ok here is how I did it.
In my case I already had Lwami and Alfa Tau 3 installed through jsgme since those 2 mods are jsgme-friendly.
Before installing RA I disabled all the mods through jgsme, everything unistalled so that DW was back to 1.04.
Now I copied the DW folder and everthing inside to a new location (another partition or another disk). Now inside this new DW folder you must delete the mod folder (it contains images of lwami and alfa tau in my case). Once you have deleted the mods folder, you copy the RA folder inside together with the batch file. And off you go, accept every option, even if it overwrites files. Then install the RA patch file. That's it. Now you create a folder named RA_mod and copy inside the following folders Cinematic - Database - Doctrine - Graphics - Interfaces - Manual and the file controller.ini. Once done, you copy this folder inside the original DW folder, inside the mod folder (you should have it if you use jsgme). Now from the jgsme you can activate the RA mod.
Don't forget to delete the copied DW folder you used to install RA.

Thanks that, all done now, the Udaloy seems to be loading fine! Question, is there a script i can corrupt in order to get the Udaloys two 100m guns to face the designated target highlighted on radar? at the moment they are lifeless and just point straight ahead.

Have the devs said why they won't make it JSGME-compatible? Creating a MOD folder for RA and having JSGME recognize it works, but it doesn't "take".

Thanks Goldorak - works fine. Neat.

Might also be good to copy the Scenario files, created by the temporary install, back to the original DW folder. There are some nice new RA modded missions in there.

Hey guys,

Does anyone know if there is a newer version than for RA available?

* Also, are we permitted to change the weapon load outs in RA? The absence of SSM's on the Udaloy is bugger me to tears!

Captcav

I have worked out an option, who allows to play the mod on noEnglish versions from the Game: at my Example, it is the German version.

You have to rename the following Files and it workes:

every ending in the "Dangerous Waters/Database" folder from .exx to .gxx.

AND:

in the folder "Dangerous Waters/interfaces/688"(if you change it, only the 688 will work, do this for every unit) : change the name from the file "textE.dll" to "textG.dll" and (if available, some units doesnt have this file) : "textCE.dll" to "textCG.dll".

Now it should work!:rock:

I hope, i could help!

dont know, wicht letter you have to replace in other language versions, perhaps "I" for Italian.:hmm:

greetings

Thanks for this great mod. I look forward to the final version. It would be greatly appreciated if a playable Collins class sub could be included. Alternatively how can one create a Collins class sub as a playable unit?

That's a good point fearless makes, i'm a RAN boy myself and would love to have a playable collins class in the next release, obviously not all classes can be made playable but it would be a great addition.

BTW, when was the last time someone heard from the DEV'S? is RA an update still in development or has it been abandoned?
