LWAMI 3.08-Having troubles leaving dock with FFG
 

Hello everybody,

I have been playing stock DW for quite some time,now I have switched to LWAMI 3.08 Mod.

In the first mission of "Red Storm Rising" campaign I am having difficulties with driving FFG Oliver Hazard Perry out of the dock. :shifty:

Such thing happens all the time.I turn on engines to "All Rear" and after that I start hearing terrible metal scratching sounds for several (approximately 10 minutes).Ship is crawling backwards.After that time,crewmen report that Towed Array is lost,as well as something else,and ship crashes completely within next moments.I tried giving orders of "Retrieving the Towed Array" before going back out of the dock,but that does not help much.

I have Dangerous Waters 1.04 with LWAMI 3.08 installed.Such mods are enabled in JSGME:

Kegetys Fonts
LwAmi Mod
LwAmi Mod Splash All Platforms

I would appreciate very much,I somebody explained me,what I was doing wrong. :)

Regards,
Stan.

Update:

Tested the same thing in one of the LwAmi's single missions with FFG Oliver Hazard Perry.Everything works just fine.The ship leaves dock without any damage.So,it may be some sort of campaign bug or problem.

Do you have the updated Red Storm Rising Campaign for 1.04 ? Because that is a known problem. A further solution might be to disable waveriding for the duration of this mission (or at least till you are out of the docks).

Well,I have a Dangerous Waters Exclusive Misson,and it is on 2 CD's and is a version of 1.00.
I downloaded 1.04 patch from Sonalyst's website,installed it,and installed LWAMI 3.08 upon.
Now it's shows version 1.04 and LWAMI's titles in intro pictures.

How can I update a single "Red Storm Rising" campaign to 1.04?I thought,if the whole game was updated successfully,all the campaigns should either. :o

I will try to disable waveriding,though.

Red Storm Rising is a costum campaign. Its not supported by official SCS patches. So its not patched by the official 1.04 patch - like every other costum scenario.
The depth of the port where you start was changed in 1.04, so the FFG-7 hits the ground right from the begining of the mission. You need to download the 1.04 adjusted Red Storm Rising campaign to solve this problem. It should be available at e.g. subguru.com....

Many thanks,guys. :D The problem has been fixed exactly as you said,I have downloaded 1.04 adjusted Red Storm Rising Campaign from Subguru's website and just replaced files in Scenarios folder. :up:

No, the draft of the FFG was changed in 1.04. :p:p:p

Or that way...its the same effect...you hit the ground:know:

At this point in our lives, everything we've done should all be compatible with itself... I mean, we've had enough time to get it right... :up:

Which leads me into the statement that it weighs on me that I haven't yet done 3.09, and for that matter, I'm not exactly sure what's going on with the SCXIIc import... :-?

Basically, I'm thinking of doing some AI updates, so I guess I'll start a thread about dumb things the AI is doing.

Cheers,
David
