Title: Question: Pearl Harbor?
Post by: LePaul on December 02, 2007, 12:55:27 AM

I haven't flown a scenario in years but I was curious if a Pearl Harbor style battle has ever been planned?  I don't know if the game is setup to allow a map builder to put a row of destroyers in battleship row?

Just thinking out loud.  

I think having a few waves of carrier-bound Zeros try to shut down the port while a bunch of P-40 drivers try to stop them would be a good time  :)

Battleship row is coming along nicely.  Pearl is in the build stage, it is one of the more complicated maps.

It's on the horizon, just no release date.

Quick on a touchy subject I might add but like ROC I can't wait for this event to come forth in all it's glory.

2 weeks


j/k


I can't wait.  I was set and ready  for it last year but complication arose w/ the map I think.

Right at the worst possible moment an update came out which killed the terrain. It's still there, but it needs to be rebuilt using the updated OE. We've opted to put our efforts into other terrains in the meantime, but we will get back to Pearl.

I'd post some screenshots but I can't even launch it without crashing right now. :(

That is exactly what happened with 'Karelia' in the earlier big update before this big update... around May/June 2005(?). It kept on crashing when trying to open the project.
The terrain was finally completely rebuilt in early 2006... and now it is again under work after the latest big update. That is how it works with heavily customized terrains... patiently :aok
