Great game - a few remarks

[HSchuster44]

Great game with the latest features. However my 1.6 version crahes to desktop instead of delivering the battle reults from time to time. AAR report missing, only the empty file is produced in this case. :confused:

BTW: Possible to get some more space for scenario descriptions within NAW? Find it hard to identify side and historic situation just by the short (and sometimes too creative) title from time to time. And: Possible to get some late 19th century sail and steam gunboats (e.g. German Wolf, Iltis, Cormoran etc.?) Finally: please, please, please connect NAW with some multi hemispheric dynamic campaign system in the future ...

Thanks & regards

Are you sure your updated to v1.06? An occasional issue with the "end of battle" routine was corrected in v1.06. No other reports have been posted by our NWS team since then. What exactly happens prior that event?

I will check this matter again more frequently by next weekend and will let you know. So far it seems to me that the battle has ended and at least some ships of one side have reached the relevant border of the map. Thanks.

Sounds good.. with some reasonable details I can have our team run full test runs with some idea of what to watch for. Again, make sure you are updated to v1.06.

Stick around, you never know what we might do.. and SAS/NAW compatibility is in the works at a later date.

Ok, I made a brand new install, upgrading from v.1.1 via 1.2 etc. to v.1.6 but with the same result. The game crashes to desktop at the time I would expect the final battle results (my ship has sunk or disengaged). I guessed the screen resolution might perhaps be the reason and changed it to scaled in the screen mode. Two more strange things happened afterwards: The graphic of my ship is disappears when firing and I can’t change back to Window screen now (typing "Window" in the text file does not change the resolution back to window). BTW: I’m using windows XP and had no similar trouble with WCDB17.

Another hint: It should read AC Gneisenau instead of Gnesinau.

Thank you.

I think I solved it and was my fault! :o

In order to speed things up in the end I tended to a sort of permanent right clicking when ships had disengaged or were sunk. So NAW was frequently left without having enough time to show me that the battle had ended and to produce a proper AAR report. I still have the problem of returning to a window screen, but that's of minor importance.

So sorry for bothering you and thank you for your assistance! ;)

Hehe.. okay. ;) You did try the different screenmode.txt settings right? "window", "scaled", "full" .. window is recommended for most monitor/video card combinations.

I've done the fast right click bit myself at times.

Re the window mode: Make sure you type WINDOW (in all caps) in the ScreenMode.txt file (you should see SCREEN = WINDOW in the .txt file).

That's it, thank you! :)
