In direct response to a request from BlindGuyNW:

"I just purchased Harpoon Ultimate Edition, largely on the strength of an article on SimHQ which I can't seem to link to. Granted, that discusses a beta version of the game, but the interface does not seem to have changed appreciably. I have always been interested in games with depth and complexity, and Harpoon definitely seems to offer that. i've also been blind since birth.
I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on how I ought to proceed. Much of the information provided by the game is textual in nature, but the map is also obviously important. As that article points out, I can't set courses for groups easily.
Given that someone obviously has been able to play the game and understand what was happening, I feel like it should be possible. I'm just not quite sure how to begin.
If anybody has suggestions, or tips on how to handle things in an automated fashion, or what have you, it would be greatly appreciated.
One thought I had was to begin with mostly stationary platforms, so I didn't have to worry about movement quite so much.
Other than that, I'm a bit lost. My screen reader is able to parse most of the controls in the game, thankfully."

This video is in direct response to a request for assistance:

"Hi guys, sorry to butt in but I'm getting desperate, I got Larry Bond's Harpoon Ultimate Edition recently but when I try to do a BOL missile launch with key combo CTRL-F1 in Harpoon 3 ANW (PC version 3.11.1.0) which is bundled with it, the game freezes.

Does Ctrl-F1 work for you?"

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...92&postcount=5

[HUE] BOL and XP compatibility mode
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--Cc5XJJEFA

The BOL problem does not appear when the game is run with WinXP. I also tried to run HUE v3.11.1.0 under WinXP SP3 emulation mode and it did not solve the problem. The same symptoms appeared under WinXP emulation mode.

I believe that there is a glitch or bug with Win7, but there is a work-around solution. Hope it helps.

[Edit] After a series of online meetings and tests with Poor Old Spike, the work-around solution does help, but the game _must be installed under Administrator-level privileges_. Spike had to uninstall and re-install the game under Administrator access in order to use the Minimize/Maximize work-around solution.

Janus 02-06-19 11:32 AM

I've started to familiarise myself with Harpoon 3. Having played a bit of Fleet Command and Global Conflict Blue in the past helps to understand some of the basic concepts of course but the Youtube channel is good for getting a view on how to handle things in Harpoon.

Is there a possibility to measure ranges between contacts or arbitrary locations on the map in Harpoon (3)?
In the Sonalyst games and simulations you can easily do this with the 'R' hotkey but I was not able to find a similar feature in Harpoon...

Herman 02-08-19 09:05 PM

There is a Range-Finder function in H3. To activate it, use the NumPad5 hotkey. Then, click on any two points of the map and the range between the points is shown in the message log window.

Glad to see you playing the classic naval wargames.

Janus 02-11-19 02:19 PM

Oh thank you, that did the trick.

I'm still slowly working through the tutorials. Next step would be to install the PlayersDB as this seems to have the reputation to provide the most stable game experience.
