Argh! :damn: :damn: :damn:

Which ship(s)?

DDJClass? DDCClass?

I'll change it ASAP, if someone can tell me which one didn't come with the game.

Looking at my hardcopy recognition manual I won from UbiSoft ( :smug: ), both J's and C's are in. So are the troop transport and the passenger liner.

And I know the VIIB sub comes with the game! :88)

Any mod makers got an idea which unit does not come with the game? What defines a unit? Just the class or also the country?

Help appreciated.

It´s the PTR (SS Duchess of York), it doesn´t come with the standard game. The ship is part of RUb and also the Merchant Pack.

Thanks. Big help! :up:

Can I simply change it from a PTR to a TR and retain it as Canadian, even though TROOP TRANSPORT is not in the editor's roster for Canada or must it be British?

Yes, change it to TR, the nationality doesn´t matter.

Thanks, Gizzmoe! :up:

Mission updated. This should resolve the CTDs being reported by some people.

See 1st post for download link (same as before).

---------------

1.03 - Ship class PTR for Duchess of York is a mod-added ship class. Changed class to TR,
which comes included with the game.

Is it the transport ship that comes with sergbuto's additional merchants mod? I've got that mod (but not RuB) so I should be ok, right?

Just download the latest version from the 1st post. The mission now uses only standard ship classes.

Thanks, Avon Lady - that works fine now. Off to go hunting!

@Avon Lady... another lucky mission with version 1.02... I have the Transport mod installed, so no problems... DD's seem to be more aggressive now, which is good...

But, after sinking ONLY the Passenger Liner, I received 2 'congratulations' radio messages (while submerged) from BdU for sinking BOTH ships...

The other Transport was not sunk until much later in the mission (premature explosions on intial attack)...

Also, the phrasing of the 2 messages implies that BdU immediately knows that the Transports are sunk... might be better if the radio messages are rephrased as SOS intercepts transmitted in the clear from the sinking Transports.. not from BdU...

Cordialement, Duke of Earl

The Avon Lady 09-28-05 07:59 AM

Thanks, Duke. I'll look into these.

Found the bug. It was caused by reverting to official ship classes in the last fix.

The message is:

The Queen Victoria is going down! Primary objective achieved.

It's an in-game type of message - not a BdU communique. Same with the remaining messages.

Version 1.04 now available. Link and ReadMe in the thread's 1st post.

Change Summary:
---------------

1.04 - Corrected objective class for sinking the Duchess of York. Error caused by the prior
ship class correction in v1.03.

Finally got a chance to test the mission. It is pretty good. However, when I got near the group and J Class started to harass me. I decided I was going to duke it out with him, and after his initial DC attack I got him with a well placed magnetic fish. As soon as he started sinking I got two messages from BdU (while submerged) about sinking the liner and transport. I hadn't even attacked them yet. :88)

Stupid triggers and events! :hulk:

I'll check. :88)
