RE: AltWNT v5 Out
Big thanks for all your efforts so far as well as the forthcoming scenarios..really looking forward to seeing them running in AE [&o]
Certainly the idea of a altWNT Guadalcanal scenario as you described sounds very interesting indeed..and im sure everyone else would pass on their appreciation of all the hard work and effort thats been put into current as well as future work [:D]

RE: AltWNT v5 Out
I second to 51st Highland Div, your work is much appreciated and a Philippines and/or Guadalcanal scenario is more than welcome! Just imagine a batlle in 1944 with all the shiny toys .
What do you plan for the enhanced Bb and CV variants?
BTW I have a WT mod based on yours in the brewing, sort of like a super-enhanced BB mod (but with a lot of CVs).
Anyways can't wait to grab your mod

RE: AltWNT v5 Out
The Enhanced variants are sort of like Scenario 2, in that they assume Japan prepared better for the war.
The main things this means is;
-More and better pilots
-Better AA
-Earlier Radar
-More local Oil production
-Earlier late-war aircraft
-Slightly larger resource/oil stockpiles
I may also add some ground units like Scen 2 does, I dont know for sure yet. Or I may just improve the quality of current late war squads, to represent better AT weapons and the like.
csatahajos, when you do start working on that, if you want me to provide the spreadsheets and other tools I used for design I'd be more than happy to do so. That way any ships you add will fall within the same parameters as the rest in the mod.

RE: AltWNT v5 Out
Hi Juan,
yes please, that's a good idea and thanks for bringing it up! I'll contact you offline later. I'll definitely wait for your Scen 42 first though !

p66 vanguard has remnants in aircraft guns.
a20h has 12.7mm rear cannon. Should be 0.5in?
good work

ships?
Hi JuanG,
seeing how you are the only modder currently making any public mods, will you be adding any ships like in chs or rhs like junks, sloops, and river barges?

RE: ships?
I admit to never having played RHS, so I dont know exactly what they added.
I assume you basically mean small craft for coastal and river trade?
Is there any real purpose for these that cant be done via AKLs and Barges?
As I havent done art for a while, here is the Katori class CLAA due in 42/43;
CLAA Katori Class - Katori, Kashima, Kashii, Kashiwara
Standard Displacement 7800tons
Durability 35
Speed 33 Knots
Manuever 44
Range 8500nm (1620tons fuel)
Belt 55mm
Deck 30mm
Tower 15mm
24 x 3.9in/65 - Turrets 6mm

RE: ships?
JuanG here are some examples of small crafts from chs and rhs
I suppose they mostly add flavour to mods. They really arnt necessery and probably just add to micromanagement.
El Cid from rhs used a modified map file (pwhex) which allowed ships to move up and down rivers in burma india and china. they allowed players to move small amounts of supplies to inland ports.

RE: errors
Hi Juan,
I know we are impatient people....just hoping for an update... [&:]

RE: errors
Hey,
Sorry for lack of updates - doing my best to get this done.
Got delayed a little due to a decision to clean up the IJN DD/E/APD ships before starting on the allied ones, as I felt they were a mess.
Plan is to have a 'beta' release as soon as I'm done with CL upwards for the allies, and then polish it and get a full version out later once I've done the same sort of cleanup to the allied small craft - and there is a LOT of those!
ggm;
Thanks for the corrections once more. I found a few more of my own - these are all fixed now.
I will probably not include small ships like you asked earlier, atleast not initially.
AE already has river movement for small ships, so you can move supplies in China this way already. I dont know if these Chinese have any ships to do so with to be honest - In that case I may add a few.

RE: errors
Just an UP for this topic Hope to hear something positive from Juan if he passes by.
RE: errors
Working as fast as I can guys - I suppose I should apologize for underestimating the time it would take to finish it after the patch.
The IJN side is complete, and I've finished the USN BB and CV forces. What remains are the USN CA/CLs, and the RN.
It will probably be out by this weekend - I will certainly try my best for that.
csatahajos (and others in this thread); If you want to have a look at what the complete IJN side looks like ingame, let me know and I'll email you the WIP version (tagged as Scen 32).

Juan,
Thanks for taking the time to do it. No need to apologize for the time it is taking you.
Cheers!

RE: errors
Hi Juan,
of course no need to apologize! If we waited years for AE then this is walk in the park.
Yes, if possible I'd be greatly interested to have a look at it. I'll PM you my e-mail in case you don't have it.
Many thanks!

RE: errors
Hey guys.
Apologies for vanishing - I moved to a new flat last week and of course it turned into a real mess. So I really havent had time to focus on this.
The good news is Im practically finished. There are only two key things I need to get done before that;
-Adjust the allied airgroups to match the new carriers
-Artwork for De Zeven Provincien class
For the latter, if anyone has any good drawings or even artwork for old WitP of this ship, please send it to me or post it here, as it would really make things easier.

No, Terminus USED to have artwork for the Dutch BCs, but can't find it at the moment.
