Version 1.08g7h2 (silent fix) now LIVE

[Killerfish Games]

We've just uploaded a new build to beta. Note that this is a silent fix as it only contains text data file changes, the version number still reads 1.08g7h2 for this build.
MODDERS; you will only need to update/integrate the modified text data files if applicable.

This fix addresses several campaign navigation errors that could cause the campaign timer to fail, resulting in;
- aircraft endurance and launch timers not counting down correctly
- contacts not being updated on the map correctly

Need to call out community member skwabie here and give them a big thanks!!
We'd been tracking this issue for a long time now and their reporting and breakdown of the cause was instrumental in getting it fixed.


Files changed:
default/campaign/campaignXXX/

mapLandLocations.txt corrected positions of buka, newgeorgia, santaisabel so as not to be on land

seaWaypoints.txt corrected positions of buka, newgeorgia, santaisabel so as not to be on land and improved connections between several waypoints and added new waypoint SPac9


default/campaign/campaign001/ (only campaign001 is modified)
sea_navigation_aid.txt modified pathfinding to hoskins to enable spawned task forces from the east or west to correctly navigate to this location

Still the same clunky-ass game as it's ever been.

Even in Formation, only my lead divebomber dives, the others level bomb. Any ideas what Im doing wrong?

It is possible that this bug can still occur if the mod does not contain the updated fixes or if the AI cannot find a path to the target location, either due to being on land or too far away to pathfind to it.

We tested all routes for all missions to all locations in vanilla and this bug was resolved.

Hey KFG, its been very quite, may I ask if you are on the next content update like a new campaign? :)

This… ^^^^

Could we just get Steam Cloud saving at this point? It's literally the only thing keeping me from buying this game.

Mods only. I don't think anyone has heard/seen anything from the devs for quite a while now..

All of the mods are completely safe. You have an overly zealous Antivirus program.

TTE mod is just data - text files, models (textures etc), and jpgs etc.

Pacific Mod has some .NET code (ABDA uses it as well), so in theory there could be a problem, although .NET is managed code (or someone was really really smart), so unless you'd give WotS admin right, you'd be pretty safe.. Also, you can not install that managed library, it just means the part of the mod that handles costs of rearming ships won't work, and it will behave the same as in vanilla.

JSGME.exe that most mods recommend is really just a smart copy app. If you don't trust it, you can either do the manual copy yourself, or say build OVGME from the source from github (since you can see the source, you can check for yourself it's not doing anything it should not).

I have just purchased and downloaded War on the Sea from Steam. Does this mean I will have the Version 1.08g7h2 (silent fix) ? My game says it's Version 1.08g7h2 but do I need to do anything else to get the silent fix ? Is there any way of telling if I have it by looking at file contents?

You have it... It's literally called a silent fix because its the same version number. Or, you can check the files the developer listed in the original post...

[andypuk]

Thanks but having looked it doesn't really help as I have nothing to compare the contents against re the updated data points etc. I guess what I really meant by my original question is whether or not the Steam version would have been updated as I see a few posts about developer abandonment, or whether you only get the odd update/fixes via Discord forum etc.
