Is there any home that one of the upcoming updates will include a 'Pacific map/maps'?

Do you refer to official updates? If yes, I wouldn't count on that...

Only on Pacific maps, for sure! Papua and Solomons.

An issue with the Owen is its cartridge, 9mm. As it happened with the Sten, the British didn't issued these weapons to the Mediterranean based on a logistics problem. They simplified their logistic chain in this theatre by using only one type of SMG cartridge, the .45 ACP.

But if someone is interested in making a landing on Bougainville map, it would be a nice choice for a SMG! 

I'm glad this pack is getting better and better. Nice work everyone!

They're great, simply amazing!

I couldn't think of an average, mass-selling focused FPS that offered a Char B1 ever.

Definitely wasn't my favourite game, but I think that old WWII Online game had it.  IIRC the game was focused more on early war, and France was definitely a playable faction.

I think there's a general tendency towards portraying the later years of WWII, and it's nice to see some recognition for the early days!  As someone who also enjoys singleplayer (and COOP with friends!), I also second that I hope there'll be AI for the new French maps 

The old WWII Online had a nice strategic gameplay idea, plus an impressive and quite accurate motorpool, but it was far from historical; actually a fictional, what-if WWII scenario... In fact, not my type of game. And yes, the Char B1 was there, with many other French interesting types.

Even if new French maps come without AI support, probably some guys will make it happen soon after the release. There are a few, but hard-working guys, dedicated to SP/COOP around here.

Hi Ivan. Tried new Tulagi installation, but unfortunately got a CTD right after loading, just like Kandel.

Then, I proceeded to delete some spawnables based on my "intuition", namely: PT Boats, subs, LCT and Ford GPA. This way I loaded the map just fine. Marines didn't spawn, but I was able to board one of the LVT's and capture one of the CP's. All bots spawned inland normally. But I run into a CTD a few seconds later.

Some notes about my installation: deleted old cmp_Tulagi, copied the new one. Replaced all extra files as required.

Any ideas?

Also I thought, about the maps that need the bots to land on the island, isn't it possible to just change one flag on the island as if it has already been captured and force the bots to spawn on it? This way we can keep the fighting on land only.

That's a reasonable and easier workaround to apply, no doubt.

Whatever the arrangement I tried, I always ran into a CTD in the first few seconds on Tarawa 32. So, I tried to remove some spawnables. I started with the amphibious tractors, then LCVP's and finally tanks and planes. I got a stable round (but with all americans bots still not spawning) until I crewed one of those AA guns on Enterprise, just to get a instant CTD. I think those crashes are somewhat related to one or more spawnables (as you stated on Readme). So, I assume the aircraft and sea assets present on Wake are not related to the issues.

I couldn't even start a round on Tulagi 64. CTD right after load screen. Maybe, the same spawnable is causing troubles in both maps. Now, about the misterious 'bot allergy' to landing craft in Tarawa, I have no clue. Search and destroy bug mission ahead!

Cheers!

Hi Ivan. Great job! Now I can say that "Tenno Heika, banzai!" on a daily basis...

First, I did not know you are a doctor... You are doing the difference somewhere, in these hard times, for sure. Wish you all the best, and thanks for your hard work! You'll be on my prayers.

Now, about the maps. I did not have time to explore all of them, but I can give some input about what I saw. Everything is working allright. On the other side, Tarawa 64, for example, is quite unstable, related to those problems you mentioned on Readme. I recall Darman said bots don't like water, specially when inside vehicles.

I'm just saying it on top of my ignorance, but you could take a look on LCVP's on Omaha COOP. They are the only naval assets working with bots. In the beginning of the round, all of them start on board and head to the beach, landing properly. Maybe if the same settings are applied on Pacific maps you should have a workaround to start with; then delete the other landing craft (leaving one LVT or Seep to the player if possible) and see what happens.

And you still consider, in the future, creating navmeshes for Cabanatuan and Berlin? Huge work, but overland maps, so, less amphibious problems to deal with.

I would like to thank you again for you efforts. Finally, Pacific is here!

Warmest regards,
