Couple bugs to report:

The PzH.18m Hummel crashes the game when you click on the "Information" tab in its unit card. I suspect this is due to improper formatting in one of the text files but as I don't know much about that, I cannot be sure. It still fires, moves and behaves normally otherwise as long as you don't press that button!

Some of the SS/Guards units (from late 1980's on) are lacking their LBM's but this is easily fixed for the most part. Pretty minor error.

A couple of others do it too - looking in to it...

Also a couple of problems with some of the text files editted by Monty.

will give full report after weekend (I have a "significant" birthday to survive first lol)

This is probably hardcoded and I don't think Monty can fix this, but I really wish I could get some more airstrikes as the Empire.

I do get some but jeeze, I'm drowning in Russian, Israeli and American aircraft almost every battle. At least if I had more strikes of my own I could return the favor...

In campaigns? I've not done any pick lists. Don't know how.

Could be that some of the text files have umlauts "ä, ü, or ö" in them. The game does not like them. I've already edited them out where I could find them. Its easy really. You just write ae, oe, or ue instead.

I've also realised that some of my text files don't fit (from left to right). I've fixed those. They've been posted up. I'll post some more up tonight.

Monty: It didn't occur to me to record the unit numbers that were lacking LBM's until I'd made the changes but it would be any of the SS/Guards units from 1985 - 2020. Just run through Mobhack and you'll see it pretty quick

Also, Don mentioned they're up to 2025 and a slew of new Russian vehicles for the next patch of MBT. I know you've got your hands full with version 1.0 but I wanted to alert you that it sounds like we have a bit of a change coming in with the next patch you might want to prepare for.

Thought as much. As it is the mod takes up a lot of icon space. A slew of new vehicles being introduced will mean that I'll have even less space to play with. Especially since as of version 9.1 I have a space problem regarding turretless vehicles (vanilla Icon0183 collides with mine).

I have a work around for that (I take the three icons in the vanilla version and tack them on the end of mine in ICON0188, changing the OOB entry accordingly) Only problem is I am sure that that folder will not stay that empty for long and the units in 0183 are all rather important ones that cannot be posted up elsewhere as there are too many of them.

Maybe if we all ask nicely the Development Team might code in another mega-buffer like they did before. As it is, I imagine they are busy enough with additions. Let's see what happens.

2025 sounds cool. I wonder if the OOBs will be bigger too or if that is hardcoded?

Fixed! "35098" is the correct lbm for these units. Forgot to include it. Over-looked it.

Its in there now. Just re-download the lbms.

Well then... , congratulations are in order! Happy Birthday, in advance!

Download the latest text files. I've been working almost around the clock and have quite a few done by now. Put them in the same folder.
