v2.5 scenarios not running on v3.0

[Siddhi]

as i said, it is a custom scenario (i.e. i made it), and it uses the standard 2.5 OOB

it worked perfectly well on 2.5 and is totally nuts on 3.0. i have no idea why this is, as i invested a lot of time in it i would like to very much play it on 3.0 (i like the much-increased LAW accuracy) and share it with others.

the only slightly unusal game design feature of the scenario is that it is max width (160 hex? IIRC) and only 90 high.

i will try your suggestion and will post a report on it - i can't believe i am the only one with such a problem.

Well..... so far you are. I'm sure we would have heard some howling about it by now if all the previous scenarios were borked

acutally not, I have recieved two PMs on this matter, however both mention the fix you suggested as having been succesfull - unfortunatly it does not work for me at all.

i would very much appreciate some concrete suggestions/help here, redoing this scenario from scratch would be major pain.

Cheers,

You have had all the "concrete suggestions/help" I can give you. I have NO idea what may have happened without at least SEEING the sceanrio and this is your third post on this issue and I'm still waiting

I will repeat what I said earlier..."We have seen examples of this before where sceanrios simply stop working correctly and need to be rebuilt."

OK ? Sometimes they break. It very rare but it happens. Attach the files and I'll look at it. Further "suggestions" are a waste of time untill I see it

fair enough.
here's the file; units that should appear on turn 2 mounted in BTRs (on Sov AI side) appear without BTRs (although BTR is indicated on the formation screen.
appreciate the help.

It would help to know the exact formation numbers of the units you have noticed misbehaving

You didn't run this through scenhack. If you had you would have seen this error message

Problem units list

Spanocchi's Dream III 10/84
===========================

026 - Rifle Section - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 203) [Weapon slot 3 = 5]
042 - Kuerassier(+) - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
043 - Kuerassier(+) - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
044 - Kuerassier - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
045 - Kuerassier - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
119 - Kuerassier(+) - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
123 - Kuerassier(+) - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>
238 - Kuerassier(+) - OOB 46 Austria (OOB Index 8) <Slot 3 bad AP Ammo>

That may, or may not be the the solution to your problem but without knowing the exact units you have observed doing strange things ( you will notice the strange things better than I will because it's YOUR sceanrio, not mine ) I cannot do much for you ATM

Those Kuerassier's come up with errors becasue you added AAMG's to them and then gave them 50 AP ammo and that weapon does NOT have AP penetration numbers ( it's set to zero ), therefore whatever you shoot at will be using zero when it hits so those AAMG's are totally useless in the game.
