What Happened?

Post by Naughteous Maximus »

[&:]I had no problem changing or adding new TOE in the previous version before v1.01.68 but since I downloaded the newest update, I've noticed that the Reserve division and Field Training division TOE is gone. Every time I try to re-add it to the TOE with the editor, and save it, its gone when I get back into the editor the following day. Never had this problem before. I had no problem modding or adding new TOE(OB) before.

All modified data files and scenarios will be overwritten by a patch install. If you modify a scenario with OB changes you'd better use a new name for the scenario and lock the generic data within this scenario.
If you want to change OBs in generic data you have to load generic data in editor and then activate the OB checkbox to enable saving OBs

This patch added Reserve Panzer divisions yet removed the Reserve Division and Field Training Division TOE from the Germans.

I did not remove OBs, Field Training divs use OB 340, Reserve Inf divs either 340 or 527

In my TOE(OB), 0340 is 43 Infantry Division (Ger 11/42). 0527 is 44b Infantry Division (Ger 9/43). There are no German Reserve Divisions, and no German Field Training Divisions.

Reserve and Field Training is part of the unit name, not of the OB. Both OBs are dual-used by standard Inf divs and the reserve/training divs.
