Last bit under extended/CD stuff is the scenhack search facility.
The bit quoted above #64 IS in the release history section.

BUT the "TARGETING WITH NLOS WEAPONS" section doesnt seem to be there!

Or I am stupid (which is always a possibility)...

Above post should have editted to:

How can you misread something that isn't there?

Sorry I screwed up the edit:

I misread what DRG wrote above (#67) and tried L and PIPE rather than i

OK this is very , very puzzling

I can see manual.htm in the MBT patch files......those are the files the installer is built from.

I can open that and see the NLOS write up at the end of the Extended features section




I can see this in my working copy of the game as well and both are timestamped 05/04/2016

But in the copy of the game that I extracted the patch to test there is the ....

New Extended Game (CD) only features 2016

.......section and that explains how scenhack sort facitlty works but the section about NLOS is missing...... but it CAN'T be missing ( but it is...... ) because I can find manual.htm in the patch folder in the correct place with the correct time stamp and when I open it the NLOS info is there.......but it isn't there when I check the patch extraction version of the game..

Maybe in the morning the reason will be obvious but right now it's eluding me how anything like this is possible beyond a rip in the space-time continuum. I can see the correct file in the patch files AND in the version of the game that tested the patch......but when I run the game guide it's not showing up

[FASTBOAT TOUGH]

COMMENCING AN EMERGENCY STRESS BREAKER ALERT- I would bet that Dr. Who would be willing to assist in this matter! It seems it might be up his alley, ripping through the space time continuum! - THE EMERGENCY STRESS BREAKER ALERT IS SECURED

You may now take 3 DEEP BREATHES and carry on.

I found the problem. There will be a solution tomorrow

[DRG]

As of 6:53 am (EDST) this morning ( April 21/2014 ) new (b) versions of both patches are in place. There are NO OOB changes so anyone who may have started a PBEM is not affected and can DL this new version without problem. The game version number that shows when the game starts has NOT changed as there were no code or OOB changes.... the only change is to the patch version.


The following corrections were made to MBT

Key game Guide files were put in an incorrectly named folder in the orginal DL and therefore critical info on how to fire NLOS missles was not showing up when players tried to find that info in the Game Guide. As well....since this had to be rebuilt for the GG info anyway..... the T-14 Armata photo that was missing from the orginal patch is now in this 'b' version.

Anyone who DL'd and installed the original patch April 20/2016 should DL and install this new 'b' version and I apologise for the inconvenience.

Works like a charm. Thanks a million (again!) guys!

[DRG]

We could use more feedback from scenhack scenario sort......does it work for some and not others ??

I get the same error code as reported in the WW11 forum

We are working on a solution right now.......there are DLL's missing that we didn't realize were needed because everything ran great when we tried it but we had the DLL's tucked away in program files and scenhack found them....but you don't have them unless you have Borland installed..which you don't otherwise it would run


Trust me.......we're not happy this slipped by us but it really did blindside us
