U-Boat War Ace ... please help.

[Redwine]

Hi all...

I need some help on this great mod or supermod.

I tested the U-Boat War Ace V1.6, i made an adaptation of it to my own installation and works fine, with no crashes i can enjoy the adds of this mod and my present settings.

I use it with NYGM Ship Damage V1.36 beta mod, torpedo power up mod, wich rise up a little the torpedo power, and my own AAA and Deck Gun settings.

I had downloaded the U-Boat War Ace 2.0, but i can see here the topic of the V 1.7.

My questions....

1]
Wich is the last version of this mod ? Is the v2.0 i have ?

2]
Installed the v2.0, in the redme say if i touch the campaign files with the mission editor, i wiil lose the antisub nets and minefields, i never touched the mod files with the mission editor, but lose the nets and mines.

Any sugestion or help about it ?

Thanks in advance for any help....



Comments : as feedback about this mod, it is just great, i found only few things to comment, too much air attacks, too much task forces and convoys are a little bit few, convoys are a little hard to found ...but when you found one...they are really juicy !!
Port traphic is a little bit too much, very nice but drop down my FPS very down, and i have a PIV 3.4, ATI X800 XT PE, and 3 GB RAM, and my FPS drop down to 7 FPS in some times.



But nice and wondeful job !

Since I am the author of the new "War Ace Campaign" I can say that version 1.8 ist the last version. I just released it yesterday. Very much new features are in there!!!
I don´t know about a version 2.0... can you show me?


About some of your comments I´ve been worked on.. aircraft attacks -> no more bee swarms, task force reports... about the convoys.. i think you´ll really be happy if you find one...I intended to se that few reports of convoys.
About the harbour traffic.. I thought it is ok, but in version 1.8 is a new "light version"
maybe next time I can reduce the harbour traffic there.

BTW: to download version 1.8... sorry for the german host but if you scroll down you'll see a green flashing arrow.
try tu push it

Many many thanks HanSolo !

Well may be my mistake it is not really a V2.0 as i wrote the name is "U-Boat War Ace 2" i asumed 2 means v2.0 .....

I have it in my hands and really i cant remember where i found it for download.
I let it stored, up to i can finish my campaign into V1.6, now, campaign finished i was trying to make the same adaptation on this version 2 but looking here the las version is 1.8, i am confused about it.

Plese dont take bad comments, i only found air attacks was too much in quantity and frecuency, so i decide to use the reduced air power mod and my own airstrike.cfg file.

It is just a matter of personal pleasure, for me 2 or 3 air attack in the go way and 2 or 3 in the back home way is just enough.

I am not criticize it, few convoys may be real, but some time take me lot of days without cant found any one, and with any convoy report, and in this time i have a lot of task forces reports.

Just as feed back only and not criticism, a little few task orces and more convoys reports may be welcome.

The matter here is, a convoy report at 2000km away has no too much utility for the captain, due to that i assume, there are few convoys in the campaign files.

In the other hand, your convoys are very "juicy" !! I like them, when i found one, i expend all my torps, in the first attack i expend all inside torps, then i go away, and during the external torps reload, i take hands on the damaged ships abandoned by escorts with my deck gun, then flank the convoy and expend all the remaining torps, go away another time and wait for the damagaed abandoned ships to finish them with my deck gun, some times i need to follow the convoy by 2 or 3 days or more.

When i found one of your convoys i am ready to back home empty of torps.

I like it !!

Any way, to have a little bit more convoys reachables from my position will be welcome .....

I understand the Light version is light only by that, few traphic at ports ? Thats the only diference ? I note a big diference in mb size. Really i dont want to lose your main improvements.

Any way i am interesting in to store both light and heavy versions, may be in the future with a pentium V i can enjoy the heavy version.

Any way, it is not imposible to play for me, i can do it, i only lose some FPS, and take a little bit more time to let and arrive to port, i use low time Compression and the problem is reduced.

The problem is when i was under attack in port it is hard to use my AAA with low FPS.

U-boat War Ace 2 is a continuation of the U-boat War Ace (Wolfpack) by the original author Travinski.

When Hansolo78 made his first additions to U-boat War Ace (Wolfpack), he tried to contact Travinski but was unable to do so. He asked me whether I can relay the info and request about using Travinski's mod onto Travinski but I was also unable to get in touch with Travinski, his e-mail addresses were cancelled and he did not read any PMs. I gave an advise to Hansolo78 to go ahead with his additions to U-boat War Ace (Wolfpack).

Suddently, after a while Travinski approached me asking for putting up for download his U-boat War Ace 2 on my site. That is where Redwine probably got it.

Therefore, now there are two separate developments of the original U-boat War Ace by two people Hansolo78 and Travinski.

As to Redwine's question about mines and nets, I think Travinski took them away but later on came up with an add-on/patch which introduced those back into the campaign.

Many thanks Sergbuto.... i cant remember that, i was thinking the vrsion V1.6 is that i downloaded from the link on your site.

Thanks for clarify the things, i must to understand are 2 separated mods.

I note now in the readme in the english part say "U-Boat War Ace 2"

Âíèìàíèå ïàìÿòü âàøåãî êîìïüþòåðà äîëæíà áûòü íå ìåíåå: 500ÌÁ.

The mod is called :

Thanks Sergbuto.....
