War Ace Campaign 4.1

[Cheapskate]

@ GrumpySub

Congratulations on your trauma free reinstall Would have been interesting to know what was causing that odd problem - have often heard about it happening in Campaign but never before in Training. But nevermind - the main thing is you're up and running.

So it's "Onwards and Upwards, Kaleun" ....or this being a sub sim.....maybe "Onwards and Downwards" might be more appropriate!!


@ Tuddley3

You're correct of course, in saying that changing the peri graphics isn't that difficult. But the main reason for U 48 KM's post was the misplacement of the Observation and Attack periscopes.

The WAC4 update introduced this error - Version 3.1 properly displayed the attack scope to the rear of the Turm with the Obs scope situated on the bow side of the UZO.

The problem lies somewhere in the Objects folder - I tried using the 3.1 file in an otherwise version 4 install and the peris displayed OK. Directly the v 4 Objects folder was inserted - they reversed.

Like U48 I feel somwhat irritated by this. So if anyone cares to let us know how to correct it - you would be making at least two subsimmers very happy!

I have a wierd mix called Windows 7 "Vienna", its almost a windows XP but it looks like windows 7. I hope that's not the problem.
I believe i tried a patch, but I'm not sure if its the same one you are refering to, - do you have a link for it? that might solve the problem.
I like this german-made mod, its superior to all the others.
too bad i cant get it to work

I'll be trying to solve this tomorrow. I made a fresh install of everything, I put WAC4.1 brand new and applied the patch you told me. Ill let you know if it works.

I wanted to ask about this:
why is the 3rd flotilla twice? Where is the option to select flotilla 12, or flotilla 11?
can this be fixed??

thanks, kamarad

I've created a mod for WAC 4.1 which adds VonDos' ships to the campaign.

Hi Wb- tried to unzip and got this message twice- CRC failed in WB's WAC 4.1 with VonDos' ships v1.9\data\library\CV_AirPlanes.dat. The file is corrupt.

Do you know what the problem is please?

I have installed WAC 4.1 over a clean installation SH3 1.4 with some mods like WAC 4.1 realistic hull damage, WAC 4.1 16 km and WAC 4.1 integrated orders fix. The game crashes when I want to begin a campaign. The museum, the training missions and single missions are working fine.

I'm running Windows XP sp3, Intel Core Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz, 3.25 RAM, Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT.

Do you know how can I have the sun halo back?

Thank you for helping.

Regards

Hi people

Well, read the thread and somewhere was written that wac 4.1 16 km wasn't compatible with Windows XP so uninstall it ... and began a career finally! Thanks again for your work! It's a wonderful experience for a GWX's veteran like me. Sailing in a german port is impressive.

I have always some questions for you:
How can I have the halo sun back? For the moment, I have a flat sun...
How can I download SH3 Gen described in the handbuch manual... the link seems strange...

Thank you in advance for yours answers

Take care

I would have to say GE has removed SH3Gen from his website. I will get it up at BtS by this weekend. I guess he didn't want to pay for another year for that server.

Hi WB !

I have a question: Could you to the MOD for the German versions of WAC4.1 (and GWX3.0) make compatible? I have with this version during the loading process always have a CTD, because in the "Ship" folder the file is missing GermanNames.cfg!

Sorry for my bad english !

Best regards,
Magic

It looks like a corrupt u/l from my end. Let me investigate and I'll try and get a good copy onto FF today.

Can you send me a copy of the GermanNames.cfg file? I'm not a WAC user (can't get it to download let alone install) so don't have the file. Copying it into a PM would be fine.

I thought I would just go ahead and put SH3Gen up. I'll try to contact GE to see what the story is with his website.

[Wreford-Brown]

Just thought - did you have an error message while unpacking the mod? I think there's a corrupt file in the uploaded version which I've fixed and am re u/l. That error is more likely to cause CTDs than the GermanNames.cfg file.

Please send the file anyway and I can make the adjustments easily to make the mod more complete.

[Wreford-Brown]

Good copy now uploaded and tested. Sorry for the problems

Yes, I had an error message. But I`ve taken the damaged file from the GWX version, it is the same file, right? Nevertheless, I had a CTD during the loading process (I´m in port) of WAC4.1.

I send the file (GermanNames.cfg) tonight!

Best regards,
