Tweaking SAM ROF of bases in Harp Gold ?

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I noted that the SAMs in Harp 2002 Gold have a very high fire rate also seems unlimited rounds (?).
Is there a way to correct this ? In my case I mean European bases (Ger,NL, DK, Belgium.... mainly) and the sam in question are Hawk + Patriot. Seems the eastern bases (means GDR,Poland, Russia) dont have this terrible ROF with their mainly SA2s.

But I found no way to correct this in the scen editor cause you cannot tweak bases there at all ?

Thanks.

Frank

(I was building a Cold War scen in middle Europe and during testing it showed you need a unrealistic high amount of missiles to hit these bases imo - I cannot imagine that in reality the sites can fire so fast and reload so fast - you know the message you get "XXX us reloading its mounts" BTW is there a way to let this annoying message dissapear?????)

Well this is the version I have/use......... I know there are newer ones, but its ok for me (also I cannot imagine setting up all the air defenses in whole central europe like you need to do in HCE - I played the demo of course)...:

But for the topic it seems finally they run out of SAMs - so the problem is only the machine gun like firing rate. I need to play HCE demo again to see how it is there....

 

PS: I also have the Amiga version still (maybe I should use this one?) and Harp Classic 97 in good conditions. If a collector is interested, send me a message :)

Here is the info for the scen I wanted to build:

Ok, thanks for satisfying my curiousity about why you were playing Gold. Btw, the Ultimate edition of HC, aka HC20, contains twenty different versions of HC through the ages, all the way from the Harpoon Alpha builds right up to the current version of HCE, and includes both HC97 and HC Gold.

You need to run the Platform Editor to adjust SAMs that are built into the Installations (airfields, ports, etc).

Thanks. I somehow totally missed that thread on Matrix.
