Cool, that's not a severe problem.

It would be nice if we could get a patch that suppresses the warning in that case though, because the db/int warnings are an excellent feature and it would be a shame to "lose" them!

With database mismatches, any number of bad things can happen. I've seen: kilo's launching Krivak FFG's from their torpedo tubes (resulting in the Kilo getting run over by the ship it just launched :lol: ), buildings flying like 747's, swimming missiles and flying torpedoes, and ships sitting in the middile of land, to name just a few.

I've come across several interface mismatches and actually never had a problem... I think that is more to prevent cheating or players playing with an unannounced advantage, such as playing with the 16 Grams Mod for the MH60 (which I've heard causes other problems as well, but I'm not sure... the modder adapted the Orion sonobuoy interface for the MH60, so I wouldn't be surprised if there are some incompatibilties).

So, my advice is not to play if there are database mismatches, it simply makes the game too unstable and unpredictable for me to really feel like I'm comfortable in the game, however, it may turn out that the French and English versions only produce the warning, but do not actually have incompatibilities that would cause errors.

I would try to eliminate the errors by renaming files, etc. but if you can't get rid of them, you might get lucky, so let us know what happens! :)

Cheers,
David

Thank you James and Luftwolf.

So far the online game is stable. We only had an interface warning message so I guess we've found a fix.

One of our member changed the names of the files in the Lwami and we made a new zip for the french version to be downloaded on Mille-Sabords.

I'm breathing again ;)
