Hmmmm..... I may have fixed this right after release then. When you look at the OOB with MOBHack do you see FOOs in unit slots 250 - 253 ?

Don

Yes, I do.

[DRG]

OK, if you see FOOs in unit slots 250-253 then you should see a regular FOO in the game in 1997. Unit 252 covers 1997 and the "Art Observer" ( formation 227 ) runs 1946 - 2020 so I am totally baffled that it cannot be found it in the arty menu.

In 1997 I find them the fifth slot from the bottom of page one of the arty menu between "Lt Mortar Sec" and "Para Art Obsrvr"

They're not there in my game. In 1997 the slot for the 'art observer' is the first on the second page(so after inf SAM section/T). If you select it you get the "no units are available at this date, etc" message. The next slot is 'art observer/T' which gives you a single utility vehicle and nothing else. The third slot is called 'FO team' but gives you a choice of one FO vehicle (three types available to choose from) instead of a team.

Hmmmm...

Does the info line of that OOB report-- Version April/2007

?

Don

[DRG]

Ahhhhh yes...... I see

I checked the default OOB. I fixed this after 3.5 was released. The short version of a long story is there are specific slots the barge carriers and assualt boats need to be in the units menu for the game to pick them up properly. They were shuffled out of place in the Canadian OOB sometime in the past. The UNITS were corrected for 3.5 but the formations we're missed. Your OOB likely shows Formation 227 "Art Observer" pointing at unit 246 "Assault Boat"

??

If yes change Formation 227 to look for 250 then change formations 228 and 230 from 246 to 250 as well

Correct, the formation points only to an assault boat.
