Re: Carriers at War

I can't get it to do so.

I've redownloaded it but when I run it says it can't find irrKlang.dll. I've downloaded that from elsewhere and it makesno difference.

Unfortunate because it was a good game I had made lots of content for.

RE: Worth it in 2021?

<t> Hi<br/> <br/> I'm not aware of any game-breaking bugs, although one thing I have noticed is that periodically, it just won't run. Then a week or two later, it does. This is under Windows 10. The only cause I can think of is that it's something to do with W10 either updating itself or not doing s...

RE: The Complete Carriers At War Guide

<r> I'll upload the whole shebang to Dropbox and post a link. <br/> <br/> It took me a while to remind myself what to copy to where to make it all work, but I fathomed it in the end. There is a folder called 'CAW backup stuff', and basically, whatever is in the subfolders goes to the same subfolder ...

RE: The Complete Carriers At War Guide

<r> I can do that, but none is playable / complete - almost none of the ships comes with the game, so I have had to create literally all the graphics, and I haven't finished. After that will come the AI. <br/> <br/> With the Falklands one, I am <I><s>[i]</s>so<e>[/i]</e></I> irritated by the 280 kno...

<r> The <I><s>[i]</s>Final Countdown<e>[/i]</e></I> was in the Pearl Harbor scenario, not Midway. <br/> <br/> It's not in the latest version and neither can you really add it because cruising speed has been limited to 280 knots, even for 'Modern' aircraft.

RE: The Complete Carriers At War Guide

<t> Hi Bert<br/> <br/> You can do all that but I am doing this from memory for the reasons outlined in my post 16 above. <br/> <br/> 1. If you start a game, at the bottom right of the main map screen is a row of buttons and the second from the end is 'Briefing screen'. Click that and on the right yo...

RE: The Complete Carriers At War Guide

<t> Word of warning - although I was successfully running this game under W10 for a couple of years, it now absolutely will not run, and simply crashes to the desktop every time. No way into it at all. I've uninstalled and reinstalled etc but no dice. I can only think some auto-downloaded W10 or dri...

RE: The Complete Carriers At War Guide

<r> Really interesting Ryan, thanks. <br/> <br/> All my home-made maps have been based on Google Maps images, adjusted for curvature. This usually means measuring point-to-point surface distances within Google Maps, then fiddling with the map so that eg Singapore is the correct 800 miles from Saigon...

Yes it does although I find it crashes quite a lot and has to be reinstalled.

<r> I'd happily contribute what I've created for this game to a cheapo freebie as long as I get a shout out. <br/> <br/> Here's my Iceland invasion and Falklands War terrain maps.<br/> <br/> <IMG src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50343251791_af96d26027_b.jpg"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://liv...

RE: Carrier Battles - Successor to Carriers At War?

<t> Yes it does. I do wonder if you can edit the scenarios though. That was one of the better things about CAW, although one really irritating feature of the CAW mission editor was how much that could be automated had to be manually coded. <br/> <br/> For example, if you create a new carrier or airb...
