I guess the DEV's were more focused at graphics than missions, and one of them said that they just position the ships and then they are on their own acting the way they want... I guess it was the romanian dev video...

gakun when did u get the game/?????

03-24-07, 06:12 PM

I didn't [yet] because I'm on the waiting list from Romania as the guy from my sig will send it to me...
I can't tell you man how many good people are here...

I also appreciate your offer, but this way would be faster and easier.... Once I find a way to repay him, I'd do it asap...

well i you want to see for yourselfs the bug, then open sh4 mission editor , THEN, load up battleofMidway file in the campaign folder in main data folder for sh4, then fast forward to january 1941 and watch them.

I did and well, I have no historical knowledge to Midway, but this was a good explanation for further patches....
Good job!

i was really and mean REALLY angry when i found this out because i spent 4.5hrs today reloading a save game point a few days before battle of midway after i refueld and refitted at midway, patrolling up and down and around midway looking for japanese fleet, and never found em only the us fleets..

Man, with that kind of frustration, I'd fire one of my own...
And the USN would lose the confident in my ability to command and then....

yep heres the thread, EVERYONE CHECK UR battleofmidway MISSION file in ur campaign folder, u will see that when u press play in mission editior that the fleet sails for midway in JANUARY 1942 and not june 1942 like its supposed to

One of the biggest/most common innacuracies I've seen is the complete overuse of the IJN DD Akizuki class...I've found a troop convoy in 12/41 that had eight of them...And the wierd thing is, that seems to contradict the roster .mis file for a '41 troop convoy...odd..
But, not to mention that there shouldn't be any Akizuki class at all in '41...
It seems to have been made (accidently, I hope) the 'default' IJN DD...In my experience. Too bad..It should be the Fubuki.

I looked at the Midway single mission, and it was pretty pathetic. They could at least have used the CVs they actually have that were there. Also, the ships are all on top of each other instead of the 7 KILOMETERS apart the IJN maintained as a standard.

Yeesh.

Ugh. I suppose my latest patrol (started mid-May, 1942) can continue and I can cease waiting for the IJN to show up. Thanks for the heads up.
