U.S. Battleship icon problem - Taloncigar - 01-06-2010

Hallo and happy new year to everybody. I would like to post to who may concern (Jason?) a little marginal problem I found in building a WF scn. I wanted to put in the OOB an U.S. battleship, but I noticed that once displayed in the map, when in 3d mode, the icon for the U.S. battleship is a huge glider (I suppose a german DSF 230)Eek. This is true only for the U.S. since I tested the British and the icons are ok. That is disturbing my sense of aesthetics:(.Is it a problem of MY program? Is there any way to correct it? I remember some year ago I used to play with a little program I have, able to decript and consequently change the OOB files and the game parameters, and I know that probably it is only due a wrong 'icon list' link number in the Platoon file for the U.S. battleships. I know this is probably the less important thread ever posted here:bow: (after all who cares of ships in CS...), but who knows, maybe a little correction of the program is necessary.
Thanx everybody
Taloncigar

Greetings all,

Just for the sake of consistency, I'd like to add to the list of minor bugs I've posted on here regarding the latest release. I've found another non-AA weapon that can fire at onboard aircraft: the German 82mm mortar (joins the German 105mm gun mentioned earlier). I don't think many mortars took out aircraft during the war. :-)

Onboard aircraft have a bunch of bugs.........I lost a Storch to an assault!

Now that is extreme!

Ciao Larry... I suppose the german 82mm mortar you are talking about is the one I used vs your recce at Offensive....:rolleyes:
Actually I was surprised too and I would have been much more surprised to shot the plane down;)

That's the one Gianni. :-)

And Rob, maybe those infantry had a great vertical leap?
