Some of us have probably done it, you get a close contact, you know the platform type, maybe even its class, but you don't know its side, is it an enemy or a neutral? It might in fact be a neutral but due to it's close proximity you blast it! You then find out your mistake but there are no consequences. If you use my Toolbox, this is about to change, but I have two consequences available: 1/ The attacking group is stood down (in game it is turned into a neutral) and the commander sent off to war crimes trial. (or in the case of attacking a whale something else?) 2/ The attacked group turns against you and becomes an enemy. OR both? If the neu…

A revised version of AARdata.dll has been up loaded to the downloads section. This add-on program gives a summary of game information produced at the normal closure of a game (see attached graphic) including game time and real time spent overall and by sessions, game message log, summary of 'kills' and damaged platforms and victory conditions met. Report .txt files are named from the battleset name and file number (0 if a custom scenario, scenario number if an embedded battleset scenario) and are replaced when starting a new scenario of same battleset/file number. (pictured report from a auto play game at full time acceleration)

View File AutoSaves Purpose: Moves, Copies, or leaves alone each saved game file. In the move and copy cases, the saved game is moved to an AutoSaves directory immediately under the directory from which the scenario or saved game was loaded. ex. If I load C:\Games\HC\MyOrd\Test1.SCm and have "Copy to AutoSaves" selected, when the game is saved, a copy of the saved game will be made under C:\Games\HC\MyOrd\AutoSaves\ To 'install', unzip the downloaded file to the ExportDLLs directory within your main game directory. The window will appear once a scenario is loaded and will be behind your main HC window. This is to accommod…

Hi. I've just resently returned to Harpoon Classics Ultimate Edition. I made a new installation and the latest patch I could find ( v2015.027). I tried to edit an existing scenario, but when I try to save the scenario I keep getting this message "GetMemAnnexA Error: !IS_DISK(0 [0x0]) = 1698128 This message has been logged. The program will now terminate." Is there a solution to my problem ? Regards FrankFly Dk

My first conversation with ChatGPT, not bad at all. It chose the radar "range" equation which does not take into account emitter power, detector sensitivity, etc. but still, amazing (and scary?).

Dear friends: After years I have reinstalled the HUE. But since I have another operating system, Windows 7 64, I am running into some problems. One of them, in HUCE, is the Staff officer window. I can't see all the information and I don't have access to the options it offered you. I've tried changing the desktop resolution, but nothing. It is the only defect that I find, the rest seems to be going well. Is there any solution? Sorry if this doesn't go here. Thanks.

G'day all, I've decided to dust off my Harpoon Commanders Edition and get back into the fray. Kicking myself for not upgrading to Harpoon Ultimate when it was on sale so patiently waiting for the next one so in the meantime I'm still on HCE. Is the recommended upgrade path for HCE : Go from 2009.50 to the latest beta? Also I'm not sure if this is due to my version but I can't open any of the EC2003 battleset's. I get a variation of "Unable to open resource file E:\HarpoonCE\hdsh.rsr" depending on the battleset (that's the GIUK one). Reinstalled from scratch but no change to the above error. Thanks

Just purchased it again and thought I'd say Hello! Have it installed and just familiarizing myself again with the game and its changes. One question - Do I need to install the updates listed for the game or are they included in the new purchase install package? I started playing Harpoon way back in 89 or 90 I believe on my old Tandy 1000TX. However, I haven't played it in a very long time. Just got interested in it again due to the Moskva incident in Ukraine and a simulation of it posted on Youtube using DCS. Did a search for Harpoon and was happy to see that it is still available and supported. Already used the board to resolve an issue with windows not siz…

Are the ECM jammers cumulative? For example, we can have a Su-27 Flanker with two SPS-170 ECM jammers of +10 DATA each one. If we arm a Flanker with two SPS-170 can we get a total DATA of 10+10=20?

Hello, at what rate does an aircraft consumpts fuel depending on the speed? At cruising speed it consumpts fuel at a 1:1 rate. What about military speed and afterburner speed?

Harpoon! Thanks to great people like Tony and Brad and a LONG list of others Harpoon is again the winner against Command: Modern Naval Operations. The ONLY reason why this great game is still alive is because of the terrific support it gets from the players themselves. Without them the last version would have been Harpoon 97. https://ww31987.wordpress.com/2022/04/11/2022-wwiii-video-game-tournament-championship/

What is the range for terminal guidance flag? How many nautical miles? Does it depends of the range of the weapon?
