Btw, about airpower, does the bug that makes the planes of the AI "sleep" after a few weeks solved ? It sucks to reload each month...

This question bears repeating.

Thanks for all your hard work, but I fear my PC would explode if I try to run 1.3 with those specs.

Well, I have 3Ghz behind me but I don't know about the ram. DAMMIT! I had 1GB 2 weeks ago, and one of the cheap buggers died on me, now I only have the single 512mb stick left. Oh well, another $100 should take me back up to 1GB.

I love the screenies, they look great. I really hope the AI will be noticeably improved on other fronts as well, not just in and around Europe.

Thanks for the hard work! I can't wait.

1.3 screens seem great. I hope that the air force bug and the manpower bug were fixed. Can't wait for the release.

Nice, thanks for the clarifications, AI guru.

You managed to get my hopes up for a patch. Doesnt happen all that often :)

I'm sure the manpower bug is fixed, that one is no biggie. Truly crossing fingers on air force as well. It would make the "no-planes" road much harder to bear for countries like Germany. As it should be.

No not really new AI commands. Same as before for the AI Files

Oh OK, well I guess that's good then. No new commands to mess around with, but the new way the AI files are written does sound very interesting. Can't wait to see it! I do have a burning question that was alluded to before with the Japan AI. One vital AI function especially in the Pacific theatre is the INVASION section of the AI file. It needed much work. I messed around for months trying to get the AI to conduct invasions quickly and effectively, but nothing worked. The AI always took at least 2 or 3 weeks after a new AI file was activated, before they would invade anything and even then their invasions sucked. Please tell me you did some work on this as well. Cheers!

I guess I'll have to reserve my judgement until the patch is actually released, however I will add my voice to show my appreciation for all those who have worked on 1.3 so far.

Like all Paradox games, every patch is nearly always a step in the right direction, and hopefully this will be a further (but of course not final) tweak.

See, I dont understand why people thought the AI was bad in 1.2, it obviously was smart enough to realize that airpower wasnt doing anything after a couple of weeks, therefore orders all of its planes to be grounded :rofl:


Anyhow looking forward to the patch, even if I find Lothos warning about needing 1 gig of ram to run hoi2 a bit alarming -.-

I agree. A deployment of French forces on the Belgian border to this extent is ahistorical, and as you note, becomes an advantage (game "fudge") which can be easily exploited. Hopefully there is a chance that the French do NOT deploy in this fashion each and every time.

Lothos, great job; this looks very promising and well thought out!

I edited the misc file and air units files to increase the strategic bombing effect. In my last game as Italy, I was bombarded left and right and my IC went from 85 to 54, until I deployed Fighters the AI reduced the attack. I think the AI always studies the results before sending airplanes.

Wait And See Policy On v1.3 Until Released And Tested

The Screenies shots look interesting enough but that does not tell the hole story on game AI adjustments and bug fixes! Any news if the Garrison Division moving to Middle East area by UK player that the Resource Depot moving and no access to it Bug is fixed? Been waiting since a week after I received the game and found the bug back in February for the fix for this problem (Patch v1.2 unfornunately did not fix the problem). I have my finger crossed that it will be fixed in this patch. It is one of my main choices of countries I like to play. I have to say that the time I spent on playing this game since I found and reported the bug is almost next to nil compared to time I spent on other games. I do appreciate the work Paradox Programers does to inprove there games and to make them more playable and also enjoyable to everyone! :rofl: I keep check almost every night for patch 1.3 to come out.

Would make for a damned nice battle of Britain, constantly trying to organise how to use your squadrons through relieving their workload kinda like good old core... those were some great battles of Britain. But now, trying to protect your airfields and installations besides your industry should make it even more interesting.




You can´t tell I´m a UK player right? Right? >_>

I sure hope this patch doesn't bog down the game as much as the modern day scenario does. (I don't know why that mod does this) But it is essentialy unplayable even on a 3ghz machine with 512mb of Ram. (i've even tried it with 1GB, same shit)

The AI might be improved, but we will pay for that luxury some other way. I JUST know it. :wacko:
Some things are too good to be had.
Like hot pussy on a cold winter's day. Sigh....

Damn it's cold over here.

This is the kick up the backside that I needed to upgrade my system. Now I just need to find the cash :D

I've got a 2.4Ghz, 1Gb Ram machine so at least 1.3 will run, but an upgrade would just make things more comfortable.

Many things see, to have improved which is great! Having seen just a little of what 1.3 contains, I won't be playing any more 1.2 games. The frustration of saying out loud 'well, that shouldn't happen in 1.3' will be too much :)

I am also hoping for vast improvements to air power and the US AI!! As a mostly UK player, it would be nice if the US could manage to actually do something without my taking military control of them!

Anyway, thanks to all involved for the work. Those weekends of constant HOI2 on the LAN with five of my friends are set to return. Timely, given that winter is approaching. Not sure that my girlfriend sees it that way , though..............
