Fixed too

:howdy Thank you Of course it doesn't matter, but if we want to download --> we will see the names 10 November 2024 (not 8 November 2024) Fixed !!! Thanks for warning .. I had everything configured to release next Sunday but then I got some time yesterday, so I decided to release today, but I forgo...

New official OpenGeneral 24.11.08.0 available !
Installer and core packs updated

OpenSuite version updated to match the OG one.

Next Friday 8 will be available version 24.11.8.0 both for OG and OpenSuite Actually these versions won't include any changes, OG will be the last RC promoted to official and OpenSuite will be the same 5.0.73.13 using the new format to name version (YY, MM, DD. N) The idea is to allow matching versi...

:howdy Hey Luis, I just want to ask if/when you plan to release a new full installer of the game and suite? So everybody can get to the same versions again. I feel it is very confusing because not everybody is using the same versions. Soon, very soon ... I had planned to release on November 1, but ...

I have a question about the Overrun ability on planes: I have a Me 262 that has this, but were unable to use it. I attacked an enemy fighter (with strength only 1), killed it, but then was not able to fly on the the next victim :winkgrin I expected this to work similarly to a tank overrun..? :howdy...

It should be

50014 --> Bornholm_winter --> Denmark --> sympatyk (not Ystad - Bornholm, Albania, Alexander)

Sorry for the trouble

Fixed!

Thanks for checking ! :howdy First of all, thank You and Gilestiel for including large XXL maps in Map Finder :( Sorry that I indicated the database as a source for uploading maps to MF It was actually easier to make an appropriate list ... Indeed that would have been much better I only refer to my ...

:howdy I've uploaded to MapFinder the first 22 maps XXL -- from 50001 to 50022 both inclusive -- I've assigned "Name" and "country" according my understanding but I'd like if you (Randowe and Sympatyk) could review your maps an post here any change you want me to do. The rest fro...

I've uploaded 4 XXL maps to Mapfinder to check. Numbers 50001, 50002, 50003 and 50022 are available already. Of course open-general Mapx database helps a lot, but every maps took me a while to upload and check that everything is ok. Deciding which country to assign is sometimes not easy when map cov...

Hi Luis :howdy Everything is in one place https://www.open-general.com/mapxs.php?omn=&omc=&omr=&omi=&omp=&oma=&omu=xxl - all XXL maps (50k) were added to the database by Darek, - all information about large maps (XXL) - were completed ... In the first column you have - mapX,...

I have to collect all the info required to create the records at MapFinder, and then I'll upload a couple of maps first to check if everything goes well. Them I'll upload the rest. What I mean is that for 50k maps I only keep the .mapx and the .jpg , and thus I can load each image to figure map nam...

:howdy Thank you I wish you a pleasant holiday Hi all :howdy Gilestiel has checked the room available and he thinks that MapFinder will accept 50k maps too at the moment. I have to collect all the info required to create the records at MapFinder, and then I'll upload a couple of maps first to check...

Yes, like i said, if no more bugs are reported maybe Luis can release a official version of the game and suite soon, so everybody can get on the same version again. It's confusing with the various RCs and people who might not visit the forum often play with later versions. Yes I plan to promote the...

Is there any benefit to having a unit accumulate beyond experience level of 500? Overstrengthening is capped at +5 (total of 15 if base strength is 10). If I inspect core units in OpenSuite, some accumulate an enormous amount of 1500 to 2000+ experience points when playing a medium to long campaign...

:howdy Are there any provisions regarding XXL maps? Will new maps have their representation - link to image - in MF? And what about the existing ones? Sorry for being missing but I'm on holidays with difficult internet access. Gilestiel is also on holidays but we are in contact to discuss and find ...

How is it solved on opengeneral.pl? :yes Darek told me already how it is done in the polish server and he is probably working already to do something similar en open-general.com so can be sure that will be implemented here soon ... :bow @Darek btw: he also setas https instead of http all the links ...

All the links are broken, do you have somewhere else ?

Maybe in the future I would include my layers with houses and other infrastructure ..?

I have to think how to do that

Yes i have made script to help Luis to update easly mapfinder, i will review with him because he have some problem to upload sometimes. Just if i understand , the solution is to use > 50000 number for this kind of map , real map is only available for og.exe for download because on http://www.open-g...

:howdy Hello OG team Is it possible to store on the server and make available for downloading such elements as map components, ready layers? For example, Randowe shared his map components on an external server, but it ceased operations and everything disappeared ... Are you meaning the package you ...

E.g. 6 records are missing from the database - XXL maps (they were missing before) Who is doing this nowadays? Maybe it's also worth informing the community (sorry for ...

Hi Björn Congratulations for EFILE_LXF 1.0 :clap Regarding that, is there any file to be deleted from the current EFILE_LXF package available at open-general.com ? or I can overwrite any existing file in the repo and commit changes in order to update the LXF efile package and the the installer in OG...

Feature request - Submarines should be able to go below surface ships, using the same logic as airplanes go above ground units.

Can somebody please confirm how the " Range Defense Modifier " works? I have several notes which seem contradictory, and some others which seem plain incomprehensible, like "if P.range-stat is different than CbtRange or CbtRange <= 1 then P.EffDef += P.RDM-stat /2 else P.EffDef += P....

This part I don't understand: Both requiere new $rem_leader=1 There are 2 different options 1, Remove an existing leader. Select unit with leader and press Ctrl-X to remove it 2. Avoid raising a new leader when increasing unit's bars. You must decline when asking to Both require to define $rem_lead...

This RC1.f should fix also the issue asking to accept leaders when playing PBEM

I think I got it fixed, but I cannot test thoroughly ...

Will you test 0.93.5.RC1.f ?
I is available already at my site and will be also available tomorrow at http://www.open-general.com/install/OpenGenRC.zip

Thanks! :notworthy I've "improved" my existing Blitzkrieg British Invasion scenario (map #50001) to 550 (AI) vs. 200+core (player), I'm play testing it right now and it runs just fine so far, but then again that's just 150 AI units over the old normal. I plan to add some more XXL scenario...

I have this issue in my to-do list, I've checked that effectively it happens ... but no time enough to check why it happens

none wrote: ↑2024-01-28 17:46, Sunday Fitting that I would post this just after that ^

Any news about an un-limited Open Suite able to make a 1600 units scenario?...

Sorry no time to code, but not forgotten !!!

:howdy I wanted to ask about tile maps Specifically, the hex_tiledecors.png files I understand that there are terrain in the rows x3 (for dry, frozen, muddy) What is in columns 2 through 15? How it's working? Why are there 22 such files (tiledecors)? Can read about tiled maps at http://www.luis-guz...

One more Luis, if you remember, i asked this many times, leaders to be more than 15. Ok i know maybe is hard, but i play many times with "cheat" and had many many leaders, without problems at game. Well, effectively it is possible to have more than 15 units with a leader regardless it is ...
