winSPWW2 V4.25 mini patch

[DRG]

FYI

Sometime in April 2010 we will be releasing a mini patch for winSPWW2 mainly to correct issues with the basic PBEM security but we decided to include the work that had been done to date RE: corrected scenarios, OOB's, new PIC's etc etc

The patch will likely be less than 2MB but all the OOB's have been touched in one way or another so the usual warnings about secure PBEM will apply.

We will issue further info once the remaining work has been completed

Will the 3 corrected OOBs be included in this patch?


In the 4.0 upgrade, 4 sound updates were mentioned. I never did figure out which 4 sounds they were; can you confirm that those sounds made it into 4.0, or tell me which sounds they were?

Thanks,

1/ I have 36 WW2 and 92 MBT OOB's to keep track of and virtually all of the WW2 ones have had something changed for 4.25 so PERHAPS you might want to be a bit more specific as to what nations those "3 corrected OOBs" are and what exactly the "corrections" you are refering to are ?? IF you are referring to the Sexton / HEAT issue, yes they, along with all the others, are included and the HEAT has been changed to "sabot" which is what we use for AP when it's an indirect firing gun and the ammo loadouts have been adjusted to 105 total with the HE / "AP" ratio altered to fit game conventions.

2/ Well you COULD extract the patch to a TEMP folder and see for yourself and given I don't commit every change I make to memory that's what I had to do to discover that those four changed files were ..

91.wav
204.wav
205.wav
244.wav

and I *think* they were more recent versions of those files that were in MBT.

No doubt he is referring to the 3 corrected OOBs that you posted in this thread called "3 corrected OOBs"

Ah yes, those " 3 corrected OOB's " . That was posted early on in the MBT work and there's been a lot of water under the bridge since then

Yes, they became part of the master game OOB files as soon as they were corrected so naturally they will be part of the OOB set included with the 4.25 update.

If all goes well the winSPWW2v4.25 upgrade will be released early in the morning of Tuesday April 20, 2010.
