WinSPMBT v5.5-- NOW AVAILABLE

[Porrima]

Thank you very much for your work, again.


Two of these were already mentioned, but to summarize, there are a number of duplicate scenarios in the scenario list and so there are "only" 10 new scenarios. The other 5 (15 new scenarios mentioned in the listing of patch updates) accidentally copied over by old scenarios? If so, would a "hotfix" to correct the scenarios be possible relatively soonish?

Duplicate Scenarios;

Highway 1 Ambush (226 and 249)
Night Action in Chipyong-Ni (227 and 250)
The Road to Simmin-ni (228 and 251)
Fight along the Rach Ba Rai (229 and 252)
Battle of the Barricades (232 and 254)
Somali Pirate Hostages (225 and 255)

I have added these to the next "to-do" list to investigate. I know for certain that no older scenarios were overwritten but obviously there was some confusion when the new ones were assembled.

Here is what happened

All of the duplicates were in a one RAR of eleven scenarios numbered 244- 255 sent to me by one scenario designer as "new" scenarios. None of the scenario names rang any bells with me so I assumed they were indeed new not duplicates of ones we had released a year or so ago but, as we all know now, 6 of the 11 had already been included in the game in the past

Yes, this is our error for "assuming" and not checking closer but nothing like this had ever happened in the past and with any release, especially a double release, things can get "hectic" so we had no reason to doubt they were anything but new so had no reason to double check all the "new" scenarios against all the previously released ones.

In future, we will check them more closely and those duplicates will be replaced in next years upgrade
