Info: 2023 winSPMBT V17 upgrade/Patch info

[DRG]

B is correct and the changes Shrapnel made to the DL around mid day eliminated all of the issues reported early in the day. It works better for me now that it had for quite awhile

Good news it all went well for you... I needed some good news

Bravo Zulu team! Thank you for your continued support of this game.

[FASTBOAT TOUGH]

Don,
**** happens!?! Not everyone can be as flawless as me, just remember how "boring" my submission process was for this patch.

Suhir,
I maintain plausible deniability for the following, let's just assume a certain unidentified retired naval submariner might possibly have twisted Dons arm to play a joke on you to see how fast you'd "spin up" at that news on your picklist. It's a theory only (??) which I cannot at this time prove or unproved given the current data I have.

However, I will do my best to find out by using my refs to see if this is possibly related to a disinformation campaign. We might or may not uncover the truth in our lifetime, however I do take comfort in that the "The Truth Is Out There"

To both game downloads NO PROBLEMS

Browser: Win EDGE latest version. I've never had issues with this browser in the past but recognize Patch A had an "error".

Processor: AMD Quad Core.

Ram: Kingston Hyper X FURY 32 GB Auto/Manual Overclocking

Security: Primary: Bitdefender Total Security/

Secondary: Win Defender in the background. NOTE: This is where I had to take a couple of seconds to remember what to do as this ONLY happens here when downloading the games patches.

As you're going through the "are you sure you want to download this" process, on the second dialog box it will appear in the lower right that you can ONLY click on go back.

Don't!!!! Underneath the message at the top click below that on the left side which will open a box on the lower left side to allow you to continue with the download.

Download after file is opened: WinSPMBT: <8s.

WinSPWWII: I couldn't count that fast @ One 1-thousand-bit rate something just <2s.

What's left is to bounce the release against my submissions (Something that Don knows I do every year I have something submitted and look at my Non-USN Brazilian new "A-4" pictures.) and update my ORNX Ukrainian Russian capture numbers since submission.

GREAT JOB Andy and Don!!!!

And as always, the players that give us the strength to continue and the ones also that contribute to the other areas of the game.!!!!

CINCLANTHOME just got back from a week at the daughters, I believe I should be elsewhere at this time.

Regards,
Pat

On the subject of the 2023 update.

I'm fully aware almost no one ever plays vs an AI controlled USMC.
But for a change of pace you might try it sometime.
Unit/formation wise there's nothing else like it in WinSPMBT so it'll require you to do some things and react in ways you've never had to before.

I suggest in your "Preferences" you set "Air Sorties" to 4-6 for the USMC to get the full experience.

With the current changes to Shrapnel's website the download now works correctly in Chrome.

Either I'm being stupid and cant see it or the edit of the first post has removed the download link?


I got it easily and quickly with no problem (firefox Win 10) from the Shrapnel site.

You are correct, in the edit, revise edit, panic , run-with-hair-on-fire, rebuild the installers, check the rebuild three times then upload and check again day I had I forgot to put the links back in and will do that right now

I had downloaded the original version, so had to re-download. The re-download on Edge went much easier than the first time! BUT for some reason I had to delete the original download in order to get the B download. Otherwise, I just got the original download. It's as if Edge decided I already had it??

Its likely that - X is there already so we blithely assume job done, rather than do the usual browser thing of downloading X again and appending a label like X (1) to differentiate it from the original download.

Which is a silly way to do things - but then again Edge is by microsoft so that is normal for microsoft.
