That's easy to fix. Anyone notice that the name of FFG48 is no longer misspelled?

Skjold has the flying boat problem (like the NKor Infiltration Launch) wihen it begins to exceed 40 knots. I recomend lowering the max speed from 60 to about 40. The boat is still fast but it only flys at an alt of about 20 feet.

Alrighty. That kind of report was the kind I was expecting to come in.

Related note.... the container ship's waterline needs to be adjusted. The screws are partially above the waterline right now.

I've been looking into the Armed Rig suggestions. The version of the Sakura mod I have doesn't have any, but I found the corresponding thread and found that he armed one rig with MANPADS and machine guns, and another with the same plus SS-N-22s. I'm fine with SA-14s and machine guns, but -22s are excessive. Does anyone have any information about weapons put on oil platforms, for example, by Iran (I know they've used platforms for spec ops command posts, so there is at least a military link in their case)? If there is historical precedent for heavier weapons, I don't mind going there.

I agree SS-N-22s are a bit too much (if you must have SSMs, Silkworms would be a better choice). Manpads & MGs are exactly what I'd expect to find on an Iranian rig.

Yes, but I disabled it via jgsme before trying to install this.

OK, a functioning 3.08 install tells us that the installer package and cmputil ran successfully at least once on your system. The 3.09 package isn't any different, so it "should" work as well.

My suggestion at this time is to run the installer over again, but to be absolutely sure no other processes are going on at the same time. Your screencaps show that the installer crashed while trying to run cmputil.exe, which as I said, we know can work on your system. For some reason, it didn't last time. (cmputil takes the graphics files for the new models and compresses them into the file that DW references to generate the models in the sim).

If that fails again, I'd try doing it with a clean install of DW+1.04 patch.

If that doesn't work, there's also the option of giving you the components individually, but I'd have to consult someone to figure out how to get it working with JSGME (I have to confess, after the initial enabling, I never use JSGME, I always move the DBs in and out manually).

It s a good idea to have a clean install, but there s the chance that then lwami couldn t be installed, because something which I don t know has changed on my system, and that happened anytime after installing lwami 3.08

Two questions ...

1) What version of DW do you have ... Battlefront, STEAM, SF ... ?
2) Is the path used for the installer (3rd window or so) the path to your main DW folder or not?

Reason I'm asking, my guess is that the problem exists because the LwAmi Mod isn't installed where its supposed to be and therefore does not find and copy the files it has to which means that of course the cmputil tool fails.

1-I have the Steam version.

2-I am at work now, will check it later and post but I guess the path is right.

Thanks !

I agree with Bill on this Silkworms for SSMs. Also ATGMs like the AT-4 stagger would be appropate.

She is lightly loaded.

(I'll fix that up and finish my Russian SEABEE in a week or two)

Ah, that might be the reason ... using LwAmi with the STEAM version proved to be a problem in the past sometimes. The wrong path might be the problem here because the installer looks for a certain registry key for the install path and I think that one is missing in the STEAM version hence it tries to install in a totally wrong folder. Just make sure during install that the installer is pointing towards the correct folder and it should work.

AT-4s are a great idea, especially with "NGO's" like Hezbollah arming themselves with ATGMs lately. Going further , the AT-4 and SA-14 would be great weapons to put on a new version (or three) of the Fishing Boat/Trawler/Powerboat/etc. Welcome to the unfriendly, populated littorals.
