Re: WITP Super Admiral's Edition

Oh wait. I have Win 10. I apologize. I just built a new computer with Win 11 and have not tried it yet. This is my old computer and the Ram isn't capable of running Win 11? I have no idea why.

So, you may still have issue. I'll try and set it up on my new computer to see.

Re: WITP Super Admiral's Edition

I know this is General Discussion forum. But honestly, I fear that my next PC will not be able to run WITP Admiral's Edition. If Matrix wants to invest in a new iteration of War in the Pacific: Admiral's Edition, let's say a revamped version to current standard, I would buy it immediately. What kin...

I looked for the editor, but am not sure I can find it, actually. Over 2 years since I posted the original.

Re: war in the pacific

There's a work around for that. I forget the person's name, but he had a little program that might still be on the forums that would make it run full screen.

Re: What do you do?

I'm an auditor currently. I have always loved to read books. We had Herman Wouk's books The Winds of War and War and Remembrance. I read those. Then I read some historical books. I became fascinated with the Pacific War and the Aircraft Carrier Battles. I also became obsessed with submarine warfare....

Re: Long goodbye

I don't really know anyone here. I've chatted with a few on IMs and such, but nothing further than just talking about war games.

Even so, it is a sad day when we lose anyone for any reason.

give a user more input into how large the font would be in any given game, I'd think that person was a saint.

I may have to go back to a TV to get the kind of font I'd like to in some titles.

Re: A few questions

Well, I can answer one question at least. Auto-Salvage. - If you notice after you destroy a ship or a base, there will be a lot of debris floating around. I usually send a ship to salvage at least one of these items, then when it gets there, I change it to auto-salvage and it will salvage all the us...

Re: Playing DW2 as a totally blind/visually impaired player

Welcome to the forums! I am surprised someone who is totally blind/legally blind can play games that seem so visual to me. I am glad you can get enjoyment out of it.

Re: Can't conquer enemy

I think I encountered this in my first play through. I kept playing then all of a sudden they had a colony again somewhere else. I ended up quitting that playthrough.

Can we get this pinned? I am not saying there's a definite chance it will migrate to the 2nd page or even farther, but it was about two threads away from going to the 2nd page.

Now I have another issue. Pirate bases....

I damaged this pirate base really badly but it damaged my fleet enough to survive. Now, when I sent the second fleet, the second fleet won't engage it. When I right click on it to "set attack", it defaulted to "move to". So, then I queued an attack on the base when it was selecte...

Re: Is this a bug? Homeworld has scenerery bonus...

I have this problem as well and the same for Research Stations For awhile it was showing up in available resort base locations that can be built, but it would flicker back and forth between being able to build and not. So, when I tasked a ship to build one, it would accept the mission but then just...

Re: Is there a way to auto-upgrade without computer changing my design?

I addressed this in ship design woes. I had a design I was comfortable with, but then I clicked upgrade and it designed it to have less fuel than I wanted and needed.

Re: Ship design woes

Perfect example of my somewhat distaste for the new design method: And maybe there's a way to get around this, I'm unsure. I made 20 frigates to attack a pirate base. A fairly long way away, but doable with frigates with two fuel cells. I attacked and almost took it out. So.... I have ship design on...
