Gary Grigsby's War in the East 2 Official Update V1.03.07 - OOB Update Changelog

[MaximKI]

The Order of Battle Update for War in the East 2 is out now. This massive update includes the addition of new OOB's to more accurately model the condition and organization of German divisions during the Second World War. You can download this update via either steam or the Matrix Forums right here.

IMPORTANT NOTE 1: All save game and scenario files created with this or later versions may only be loaded with this or a later version. Versions prior to 1.03.03 may not load these newer save game or scenario files. Old saves and scenarios may be loaded with this and newer versions.

IMPORTANT NOTE 2: The extensive changes made to the OB and map files in 1.03.03 will require that any modded scenario created prior to 1.03.03 will need to have their generic data locked using generic data from 1.02.52 or an earlier version. If you are going to start a modded scenario that was created prior to 1.03.03, make sure that you are using a version of the scenario that had its generic data locked.

V1.03.05 – 13th October 2023

Bug Fixes and AI Improvements

Made additional adjustments to greatly increase the chance of side armor hits, greatly decrease front armor hits, and somewhat decreasing top armor hits (the ratio now is 33% top, 50% side, 17% front). Also downgraded the hit chances of larger bombs (they retain a higher chance to hit and hurt an AFV, but they will do relatively less than before compared to other weapons).
• Removed code that halved the transport cost of units when being airlifted or paradropped.

Data and Scenario Changes

V1.03.03 – 29th September 2023:

New Features and Rule Changes
• Editor – On the OB tab of the old editor, the centre column now contains a “Counter Idx” entry for each OB as well as a visual showing the counter symbol being used. This allows editors to change the counter symbol used by units using each OB. The default value of 0 uses the original system of symbols, which relied on the unit type info and some hard coded adjustments by OB slot number. By entering a 3-digit value, different symbols can be assigned to each OB. The first digit represents the row, and the next two digits represent the column for the location of the symbol in the counter art files (found in the dat/art/units folder). Rows and columns start counting from 0, so the Panzer symbol is symbol 100 (row 1, column 00, the ski symbol is 212, row 2, column 12). The counter symbol shown changes to reflect any new value you’ve entered. Modders can add additional symbols in the blank spaces on the right of columns 1 and 2, although there are several different sized files, as well as a non-NATO counter set, and all would need to be modded. Note: Air HQs and City Forts use pre-assigned symbols that override the OB Counter Idx.
• Clarification – Ground units can suffer casualties from the interdiction value of the hex they are located in at the end of the air execution phase. These losses do not show up in a battle report, but are shown in the losses screen as happening during the air execution phase.
• Updated the Living Manual.pdf file in the \Manuals folder. This is up to date with changes through game version 1.03.03.

Bug Fixes and AI Improvements
• Aircraft weapons were using penetration value when attacking AFVs when they should have been using anti-armor value. Fixed.
• Flak units located in cities are incorrectly adding their flak value to the hex (in the map display) containing the HQ they are assigned to (display bug only, they were not firing as if they were in the HQ hex). Fixed.
• CR/Equipment/Weapons display has two columns labeled as Range. Fixed.
• When loading a save game file, air units with TPI replacements would only count pilots that are at or above the national morale when considering putting planes in reserve. This causes planes to incorrectly be placed into reserve during the load. Fixed.
• Fixed several bugs in the airborne drop interface, especially involving situations where there were more than one airborne unit in the same hex.
• Added additional checks to improve the chance that Steam MP players, with connectivity issues, will be able to make repeated attempts to save the game.
• Fixed a case where bombers could be used for air transport without paying an AP cost.
• Disabled F9 hotkey during the air planning phase (air transport is not allowed during the air planning phase).
• Certain types of motorized units are becoming non-motorized when they change their OB, even when changing to a motorized OB. Fixed. Note, a side effect of this change is that when a non-motorized unit, that is temporarily motorized, upgrades to a non-motorized OB, it will lose its temp motorization status.
• Editor – Fixed a crash bug in the new editor when clicking on an air unit in the Air Group tab that has a rename. Now, just like ground units, air unit renames now must be set in the new editor.
• Editor - Fixed a crash bug in the new editor when clicking on the unit section after entering a name to search in the air group section.
• AI – Increased Axis AI utilization of support units by improving its ability to get German support units out of the national reserve.

Data and Scenario Changes
• Major changes to the OB.dat file:
o Reorganization of data list by nation, unit type and size for easier and more logical viewing
o Comprehensive review and update of all Axis units (Italians are divided into Metropolitan, African and Russian variants of organization)
o Hundreds of new OBs to fill in gaps
o German Divisions now have numerous archetypes to reflect the varied nature of their organization and equipment (there used to be one standard infantry and panzer division - now there are numerous variants to use a wider variety of equipment)
o Better transition of Axis units that become equipped with Panzerfausts in late 1943 (all units should now have unit upgrades when the squads get updated to panzerfausts in Oct 43)
o Revised inclusion of German imported equipment into Axis minor OBs (Panzerschreks in Finnish units, German anti-tank guns and panzers in Italian, Rumanian, Finnish and Hungarian units)
o Different OBs with appropriate naming of motorized and non-motorized variants of units (Standard Pioneer unit versus a Motorized Pioneer unit)
o Reviewed/corrected the unit symbols used by OBs using the new editor feature and updated some units' symbols as being marine and light infantry.

• All scenarios - All scenario files were reviewed and their OBs updated to the new OB list and many units were rebuilt to incorporate these changes. Changes were also made to adapt to the map changes. Scenarios with Italy had at least a partial review of Italian air units. Many other changes were made in specific scenarios, many noted below.
• All campaigns - Reduced the level of air combat that takes place in the Finland TB before the Axis Finnish Offensive and between the end of the Axis Finnish Offensive and the start of the Soviet Northern Front offensive. Increased the level of air combat in the Northern Front TB during the
Soviet Northern Front offensive.
Made several other minor event corrections. Surrender events for FIN/RUM/ITA/BUL/SLO will now zero out these nation's manpower pool.

Similar for me. The first two attempts only gave me partial downloads, both with virus alerts. The third time was a complete download with no alert. After neither of those first two attempts did I give instruction to ignore the perceived threat. Windows 11, Microsoft Defender, and Firefox. It seems to me the false alert is related to the truncated download.

To clarify a few things from our end - we always do a full check for viruses to ensure that no viruses get into our downloads as provided by Matrix Games. As such, it's likely that these download flags are likely false positives and there are no actual viruses in these downloads. We recommend that users experiencing these issues make exceptions in their AV and security software to allow these downloads to go through.

Of course, if more problems arise from this or more people report this ocurrence, let us know and we can investigate further.
