Victory (for the Germans) Mod is posted

vmodb - or Victory Mod version b - has a patch available at:
failed XXXXXXs/18290838/vmodbpatch1.zip.htmlXXXXX failed

sorry - when i tried to download the one above it failed

use this one instead, i tested it just now:

This patch fixes a few glitches that i discovered in vmodb. The glitches were as follows:

**A German convoy generator at Dover Harbor was set to make neutral American ships.
While this never created a problem it did look tacky.

**A u-boat supply ship was missing near British Columbia and has been replaced.

**Fast moving raiding-fleets have been made more visible as regards sighting-reports.

Excellent work, Redbrow.

Also in the area I'm most interested in, and that is gameplay. A few hours (quite a few I may add from you) created endless hours of enjoyment of this excellent game.

In my first mission (just before the UK invasion) I left the Bay of Biscay and the RAF were all over me. I never saw that in the stock game. Superb!

BTW, the patch in your last post is deleted from rapidshare. Was it moved to your first post or what? I would suggest a simple way of versioning, just to avoid confusion.

Hi, I don't think Redbrow would mind so I've uploaded the patched version b, I think it is the latest:

Try this link:

http://multiterra.mooload.com/file.p...od_Update1.zip

I renamed the file for versioning purposes

Rapidshare works excellent for me. Very fast. Ont the other hand, filefront is very slow....I tried this for change www.mooload.com.

Tell me if you have any problems with this.

VonHelsching, do you know if mooload.com gets rid of the file after a short period like rapidshare does? that's the only annoying thing about Rapidshare, understandable though!

I think it does (15-20 days?). Check the site to be sure. I found this site on a blog, which listed all free file servers. I picked 3-4 out of pure chance and opened tabbed windows in firefox. The mooload.com happened to open first; i.e was the quickest for me.

A lot of people are having problems with rapishare and I don't know why. It's always ultra fast for me. On the other hand filefront is very slow; sometimes not responding at all.

Anyway, I finished my first mission using the Victory mod and it's a blast. Renown for warships is high, so you actually end up helping your fleet invading the UK.

I saw a very nice scene in front of me, while I was hunting an Elco near Dover. A Type 34 DD came out of nowhere and started blasting the Elco. Absolutely amazing (I lost the renown, though).

When I finish 2-3 missions, I'll transfer to Loch Ewe or the Azores for some serious hunting.

Thanks, I agree with you on filefront, I generally have to refresh the page half dozen times to get anywhere!
There's quite a selection at that 'Creative Guy' site, I'll mark the page and may select another upload site later!
Cheers.

Edit: Currently trying Hyperupload, only 10mb limit but unlimited time, setup similar to Rapidshare.
