WinSP MBT: Das Reich

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.

If I can humbly make a suggestion Monty: Maybe eliminate some of the extraneous level bombers from the 35 and 44 OOB's? Just a thought. They are pretty cool but honestly I don't use them nearly as much as the strike fighters. May free up some much needed space.

Can't come on here until this is fixed. Do me a favour guys. Send me your e-mails so we can keep this thing going in the meantime. Will PM you. My anti-virus is not happy with the site at all. Neither are Google or Firefox.
