xoomigo Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 I am on Steam Open Beta version 2.5.6.60966 and I have Normandy map and WWII Asset Pack installed. Using Mission Editor, regardless of the date (historical or modern - I have tried with periods of 1940-45, 2000, 2016) but I don't get Schnellboot type S130 listed as a Naval type option for Third Reich or any Axis countries. The only option available is Uboat VIIC U-flak for Third Reich. I checked my Steam app folders and the files are there. I read from the forum here that E-boat Schnellboot type S-130 and Type VII-С/41 were in the same release last year. I have installed the WWII Asset Pack during the free-to-play period end of 2020 (not aware whether the S-130 was available then) and uninstalled it before the period ended. Then I bought and installed it yesterday - and tried to look for the S-130. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the asset pack via Steam but the issue persists. Anyone else having the same issue? Or did I miss something. Thanks.
xoomigo Posted February 20, 2021 Author Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) I have opened up missions with Schnellboot units, which came with the Spitfire and Persian Gulf modules - eg. Spitfire(CW) - Persian Gulf-Maltese Convoy - Sink U562.miz. If I change the existing type (SBOAT ESCORT1) from "Schnelboot type S-130" to "Uboat VIIC U-flak" and save the change (not saving the mission file), I can no longer change it back to "Schnelboot type S-130" because the unit's type drop-down option does not list it as an option for Third Reich. Like before, I cannot add a new Third Reich naval unit for Schnellboot. Looks like no one else is having this issue. Thanks. Edited February 20, 2021 by xoomigo
iFoxRomeo Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 At the bottom of the Missioneditor window is a little watch. Press it. Then the Schnellboat should be available again Fox Spoiler PC Specs: Ryzen 9 5900X, 3080ti, 64GB RAM, Oculus Quest 3
xoomigo Posted February 23, 2021 Author Posted February 23, 2021 Hi Fox, That was it! I didn't know the watch icon toggles Historical mode on/off until I saw your reply here. I thought E-boats should exist regardless of the mode if the year was set sometime between 1941 and 1944. Anyway, thanks a lot! xoomigo
iFoxRomeo Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 You're welcome. It's a bug. It should be in this timeframe Fox Spoiler PC Specs: Ryzen 9 5900X, 3080ti, 64GB RAM, Oculus Quest 3
