1812 oob not appearing as intended

Tue Jul 15, 2008 3:27 pm

The 1812 scenario Setup xls file calls

column F column G

GM. von Hugel Prinz Paul IR 1|IR 4 Wurt.|NULL
GM. Koch Herzog Wilhem IR 2|Kronprinz IR 6|NULL

It calls four uni_WUR_LineBde3 in column C.

This unit type calls for the following models:


$mdl_WUR_Inf2|2 $mdl_WUR_Lit0|1

There is not an exact unit type for 2 inf regts model type inf2 which is what is wanted.

See screenshot for what appeared in game!

Part two...

Definitely not what was wanted! If the problem is not on my end
(do others get the same ingame results?), what is the cause?

This screenshot shows division dissolved and reformed.
I've lost the regimental names. I've seen similar things
in other divisions, so the problem is not isolated
to one unit.

further checking...

The problem exists here whenever the setup file attemps to squeeze elements into preset unit types that are not an exact match. If the units file says unit_type1 has model_type1|2 and model_type2|1 and the setup file calls unit_type1 and assigns it Custom_name|Custom_Name|NULL the unit is not displayed properly in game. (On my machine, anyway.)

Anyone else see the same in this scenario, or notice it in other scenarios?

I was *innocently* checking the game and oob against Nafziger and Mikaberedzi when the problem revealed itself...
