Add-on mod for GW1.0 -> 1.1 (1,269 mb) [Mod updated]

[irish1958]

I must be dense. I DLed the seperate parts and when I combined them, the add on mod was only 30+ Mb not 900+.
I unziped all the files into the same folder and overwrote the files when asked.
What did I do wrong?
Is the GW1.1 patch ready?
I would like to try this mod, using JSGME and SH3CMDR.

You must have done something wrong here! Part 1 to part 6 is each of the size of 95.37mb and part 7 is 58.65mb. When all parts are dl'ed into the same folder, then use winrar (get it for free at www.rarlabs.com), mark first part, rightclick and choose unpack here! Then it should be 900+mb! When unpacking, there should be no questions about overwriting other files! When using the mod enabler, then yes, but not by unpacking!


I'm sorry that I haven't released the patch yet, but I have not yet returned from my testing patrol, and now while being on patrol, I saw someone made a GW friendly U-Boat War Ace mod. As soon as I return - I have 6 or 7 torpedos left in my IXb - I will try put in some of the new ships from the GW friendly U-Boat War Ace mod in my patch and then release it! I should probably have it ready for you friday evening or saturday (Europe time)! I won't include all of this new mod, since it will need a lot of testing as I see it!

Another reason for not being able to relese the patch yet, well I do try to have a normal life besides my u-boat captain's life, and lately I have been out trying to get a girl resently single.... hmm... hmm.... :|\

Carotio,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I'll try again.
Good luck with your other project. Take all the time you need.

Finally, the update is ready for download!

Look in first post of this thread!

Happy download and happy gaming!

And those who actually keep playing "my way", please tell me, I would like to try multiplayer one day! It's pretty boring playing against myself desktop to laptop....

Remember if you play my mod to look in my initial post for updates, now and then...

As you can see, I have made two minor changes lately....

Carotio,
I still don't get it. I DLed all the files into the same folder and opened them with winrar. When I opened the first file, I had a folder of about 550+ Mb. When I opened the next file, I was asked to overwrite files.
A post above says that all the files are opened when you open just the first one. If so, why is it only 500+Mb and not the 900+ as stated?
If I open the files in order, I still get about 500+mb in the final folder, whether or not I overwrite files.
I tried opening the files with other programs and got about the same result.
If I ever get this working, I would like the English version of the F1 info.

1) Did you download all from rapidshare or all from quickdump or mixed?

2) The rar-files, when looking at them packed, what are their sizes?
part 1+2+3+4+5+6 should ALL be the same (95.37 MB) and part 7 should be 58.65 MB!

3) If you use the latest version of winrar, right-click the first rar-file and choose "unpack here"

4) If you still have trouble, maybe you should try redownload the files! It can happen that a file has been downloaded only 99% but a download manager has reported it as being downloaded 100%. I have seen that happen before!

5) Will work on the F1 English version when having time for it!

Thanks for your quick answer. I DLed the files from a mix. I will Just use RS for them and give it another try.
Thanks also for your good work.

i DLed the files form one source (rapidshares) and opened them with WinRAR 10.0. This time It worked. I'll make a seperate new install and have at it (as they say across the pond)
Thanks for your help.

New update of my add on mod!

New users should dl the newest version!

Old users may dl the latest patch!

Read the initial post for latest info!

The dl links are to be found on my new mod site as stated in the initial post!

Any feedback is as always welcome! Also hints of where to get other new content: such as units, textures, sounds or anything! Which still isn't there! But myself, I "hunt" also, as you can see...

[irish1958]

I have been using the mod for over a week now and everything is working perfectly. I think this has made GW a lot better.
Thanks a bunch.

"Keep up the good work"

I should have said:
Old users may dl the latest patch, if allready using mod with first patch!!!

And they should definitely use CDex provided in the documentation folder of the first patch to convert all the mp3 files in the gramophone folder!
I have done that for new users in the latest full version!

I have GW 1.0 and GW 1.1 updates mods installed. Can I still use this mod? What is the different between this mod and GW1.1?

thanks

Is this compatible with NYGM TW ?

I originally made this mod for GW1.0

When GW1.1 patch came, I looked it through, and saw some critically important files were changed, so I needed to edit these files to make my mod work!

If anyone having allready dl'ed my earlier version, then the two patches of my own is needed: that is like this: GW1.0 + GW-UA1.0 + GW-UA1.1 patch + Sea + GW-UA1.12 patch
That is, don't enable the official GW1.1 patch, because I allready put it in!

New users should use this: GW1.0 + GW-UA1.1
The GW-UA1.1 is at the top of the page at my site!

The difference is mostly the addings rather than the unchange! I have added a lot more! Most people are able to find the mods themselves if they want, cause I have most of the content from several mod sites! Some things I have made myself though!
