Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Hi there,
just wondering if i can start a Bug collection (Steam version):
1. still existing issue within in the Main menu: You cant reach the Singleplayer/Multiplayer/... buttons after the Game started in Fullscreen.
-> Solution: Still Alt-Tab to Desktop and back then you can touch the controls
2. German spoken: Well, scenario description is missing (scenario_descr), also the briefing for the 1st battle (briefing_2_0 to 2_4) and the new specs have no translation either. Missing translations for objectives too, which makes it way difficult to play the game in german
Oh, and there is a tank called unit_2265, arty called unit_2281 & unit_2272. For AA there is a unit_2268 and the the only Tac-Bomber is unit_2273.
Not really Big Deals (except the mission goals)
Update: Same for the non Steam version

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
I use the non-steam version.
In all scenario directories only text_english.txt is available. All other languages missing.
I copied the text_english.txt to text_german.txt to see mission objectives.
The directory is similar to "c:\Slitherine\Order of Battle - WWII\Order of Battle - WW2_64_Data\Content\Campaigns\12Soviet\Scenarios\<scenario_name>"

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Wow, you're right about that and I can confirm it for the downloaded version as well. Campaign level has English, French, German, Russian, and Spanish but only the text_english file in each of the scenario folders.
Well, it could be an oversight; it could be needing to meet the August 8 release deadline and the other language files will catch up eventually; or it could be a decision to go with English-only from this point on, seeing as how that's become lingua franca in the gaming world. I imagine the translations into five languages is a major undertaking for each DLC.
We'll have to wait and see.

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Apologies if this is a known issue, however, I searched for the rather obvious title of 'reposition units' and found nothing.
Setup: Game has 3d World enabled. In the scenario editor, with several friendly units placed on the map.
1.) Create a trigger set to: Movement Event>Unit Near Hex (select target hex and select target unit)>Reposition Units (Select same target unit, select adjacent hex to original target hex)
2.) Save and launch scenario
3.) Move target unit to target hex.
4.) Note that unit's 3d model remains in the target hex, but it is not actually there. (Mousing over the unit's image will demonstrate this.)
5.) Mouse over hex to which unit should have been repositioned. Note that unit is actually there, but invisible.
6.) Advance to next turn
7.) Select invisible unit and direct it to move to another hex.
Observed: that the unit magically reappears and moves to the new hex.
Expected: The unit's model is always in the location where the unit actually is.

I think this effect "Reposition Units" is not meant to be used in your case.makigono1 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 10, 2019 7:10 am Apologies if this is a known issue, however, I searched for the rather obvious title of 'reposition units' and found nothing.

What is the point of moving a unit instantly from one place to another ?
We’re not in Star Trek, we’re in a ww2 strategy game. Teleportation is not yet a specialization available
It is better to use the Trigger Event < Turn Start > than < Move Event > for the Effect "Reposition Units"

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Sadly, Turn Start won't do. It has to be Move Event, for my purposes. Besides, a graphical issue is a graphical issue. I didn't say it was a terribly important one, of course. But thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Thx, good catch. This seems to be a translation mishap. It looks fine in english and few other languages, but indeed the problem is in german and spanish versions. Should be easy to fix.

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Thx. The english version is certainly the correct one. We see to change the rest so they're having the same descriptions.

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
I'm not absolutely certain why, but the "Hold 3 secondary for 2 - FAIL" trigger in the RedStar/09-Raseiniai scen does not work. I guess the check turn alliance has to be changed.
Test: Play as standalone scen, don't deploy any core forces and let the scen run. On turn two the Germans take usually the middle sec. VP and nothing happens (to make sure they capture it, you can move the inf. out and the cavalry into the city). You can then capture it back on the player's turn and the objective gets awarded as "completed".
Please check and fix.
As a side note I must congratulate you on the AI setup in this DLC.
I don't think I've experienced such a fast and flawless AI execution since the original Pacific DLCs. I'm at the Raseiniai scen at the moment and I did not notice any AI thinking times to speak of. Endsieg was catastrophic in that regard.

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
Did anyone notice that enemy infantry heads (or helmets) are now visible when they are moving through forests in the fog of war? Playing Endsieg now, and noticed this behaviour from soviet troops. Kind of gamebreaking ((( Can't capture on screenshot for some reason

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
yes, I tried to do it that way, but it seems that the engine cannot take screenshots during movement, so there is a delay and I can't capture this bug...terminator wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 1:27 pmScreenshot = F9Oleksandr wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 10:56 am Did anyone notice that enemy infantry heads (or helmets) are now visible when they are moving through forests in the fog of war?

Same thing just happened with a soviet light tank - the tank could be seen during movement through forest in the fog of war

Re: Current Bugs - Version 8.1.0
I've just played all 13 Red Star 810 standalone scens and never noticed any bugs or glitches of any kind, everything was perfect.Oleksandr wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 10:56 am Did anyone notice that enemy infantry heads (or helmets) are now visible when they are moving through forests in the fog of war?

Which scenario are you playing in Endsieg?
I'll play it now and let you know if I spot the bugs you mentioned.
