Four seasons - A New dawn 3 problem

Post by FieldOfGlory »

Love this mod. But it does seem to be allowing engineers to construct airbases. Anyone else have this problem?

Why is that a problem aren't that one of the reasons to have engineers? Among other things they build airbases.

I'm guessing he meant to say "doesn't". But I've had no trouble building them with mine. Love the mod.

Yes, that is pretty much an allowed action in ATG. Anything that is buildable can be built by engineers. I generally have a personal rule when playing against the AI not to build them because the AI cannot, so it seemed unfair (same thing for shipyards). On the other hand, the AI gets so many other advantages, maybe it is a reasonable offset, although I still am inclined to use this as a house rule against AI.

My apologies. It does NOT allow my engineers to build airbases. Every terrain type I look at say airbases are not enabled. I've been playing option number 5 on the popup screen that comes up and then four seasons a new dawn 3 off that ATG main menu. Perhaps I should be choosing another option off the popup?

I've tried building them in Fields, plains, forest, low mountains everywhere I try Airfield never shows up as an option.
Here's a pic. Where it says buildable = False, Factories and everything else says TRUE. Can anyone tell me how to change airfields to true?

Are you sure you have the resources and PPs to build it?

Yes. When I load up vanilla New dawn 3 it works fine. Also says true when you're looking at the chart above instead of false.

I originally installed the mod from a link in a previous post and not the scenario bank. I'm wondering if the original mod is causing the problem. I have since downloaded it from the scenario bank and re-unpacked it but I did not delete all files from the previous install so I don't know if the original is the problem or not.

That's very strange. I am using Regiments (selection 5) also and clicked the Four Seasons - Regiments v3 to start my current game. I can build them fine; location info says buildable. I am using ATG 2.21g for my game. What version are you using? And I installed from the scenario bank on Feb 8th. Was 4 files (FourSeasons-1,2,3, and -at2.atzip).

Okay I just chose option 3 and then 4seasons-regiment v4.1 from the ATG main and it now says Airbase buildable=true.

It must only be affecting option 4.

yes, but back in February, before the move to the new site. Haven't successfully registered at the new site. Will have to try again. You appear to have a newer version.

I just registered at the new site (www.vrdesigns.net) and redownloaded the mod. The scenario file's description says it is version 5 dated Dec 2, but the file sizes are the same as what I got in February that shows v3 in the selection names.

edit: just installed the latest downloads and it looks the same as it did before. Are you sure you have the latest mod files? Are they the same size as mine?

yet another edit: I checked files in my ATG folder and my installs show a date of May, 2015! I wonder if the installs don't work if you don't have ATG installed in the normal location. The latest install's text file shows v4.1 changes that are not in my version of the mod (mountain still needs Rifle 2 in my game).
