Bug - troops changing sides and a few graphics things

[Doctoxic]

Hi all

I must confess i haven't read all the posts here so apologies if these have already been mentioned.

1) TROOPS CHANGING SIDES
This one is very odd. I am Germany with Bulgaria/Hungry/CZ/Italy/Croatia as part of. Sequence of events:

a) Its June 1941 and about to invade Russia. I notice that about 90% of my Hungarian army (i have military control) is now Italian (though a mouseover still gives tyhe descriptions as Hungarian). Just prior to this i had taken control of Italy but quit and reloaded - not sure if this has anything to do with what happened.

b) Anyway i reload and try again but it happened again but i didn't notice when exactly or if was triggered by anything in particular.

c) I reload and try again and hey, my Hungarian troops are mine However a few months later i notice that most of my Bulgarian troops are now Italians.

Any way i can get control of my units back?


2) UNIT ICONS

a) The FW190 and Me109 pictures are the wrong way around (or i suppose the descriptions could be wrong. After another look it seems a lot of the air unit pictures are wrong (mixed up?)

b) When i click on a Hungarian corps some of the units in it are depicted by Nato symbols and some by the original graphics. I think that one of the grapics was for 1945 inf when the unit was actually 1935 or something.

c) In the production screen the Leichte division is of a Helicopter.

d) In the production screen are the STUg pictures really Stug's?

3) UPGRADE TIME
Probably not a bug but the upgrade time seem to be very long - is it longer in CORE than vanilla HOI?


Thanks

The pictures are wrong because CORE changed the model numbers. It was to be expected and will be changed later, when the graphics pack is released.

The upgrade time has been increased, but the costs have been reduced.

On this note I am using the greatest graphics modder ever, the German unit skins but they only work for Croatian troops and something else and it makes sad becase they look so good than these counter boxes...

1. Those Hungarian, and later Bulgarian units are probably being sent by the HUN or BUL AI to Italy as EXP forces. The AI will do this even if you have military control over them. Just as those units will at times go off on their own seemingly, but are acting under AI instructions. Only way to get around this would be to resume military control over Italy, and send all those units back to their native country's control.

2. I can guarantee that the German unit skins wil not work properly with CORE, as the model #'s have changed significantly. So you will get all sorts of oddities if you try to combine the two. There are works by GIP and Scytth which are compatible, but the links are on the 21vikings site, which is down for the moment.
