It seems like I was wrong with my first impression yesterday, there could be a compatibility problem between 1.3b and DAIM regarding some changed Great Patriotic War events. "AI Enhancement for 1.3" - well, I guess nobody said AI only... :rolleyes:

We'll provide a working DAIM version for 1.3b soon, for the time being I only recommend using DAIM with 1.3b for those who know how to fix minor issues. :)
 
DAIM Mac compatible?

Okay, assuming a) I run the .exe on my work PC to unpack it first and b) Virtual Programming eventually Patch the Mac version to 1.3 (they better, as the 1.2 Mac version of HOI2 is broken - land combat has no modifiers applied!!) should DAIM work okay on a Mac?

I think it should do, as it just looks like a bunch of data files in text format (which is what SMEP is, and that seems to work...), but thought I would ask...

Thanks

No idea when the next version hits the net. I'm unhappy with the performance of the UK and will try to improve the uk AI and maybe we have to change some smaller things because of 1.3b .

We'll release a first version for 1.3b today or tomorrow - simply the last version put on top of the changed files with correct deinstallation and such.
And maybe we'll jump at the chance to revise and improve some files, just like Spocky indicated, to release another version later, but this will probably take some time.
 
Okay, the actualized version for 1.3b is complete and ready for download!

The DAIM files themselves remained unchanged for the moment, I simply put them on top of the changed files of 1.3b and updated the uninstall function. I also fixed the USSR GDE bug which was kind of reintroduced with 1.3b, the fix is contained in the "Modified Events" section of the installer.

Enjoy! :)
 
Hey guys!
After playing around with vanilla 1.3a, I wanted to take a look at the again improved DAIM finally. Everything went smooth so far, until now im running into a problem. Playing a 36C as GER i have an unhandled exception or so around the end of Sep 41. It is repeatable, meaning i load up the save and a day or two into the game it says byebye, black screen and then back to Win.
I just wanted to hear from any of you wether you ever came upon something, maybe if you are interested in the savegame, i could upload it somewhere.
 
We haven't seen this before but can't exclude that its DAIM related at this time .So can you zip the save and send it to stephan@hlawatsch.org

I used your savegame and tested it with the newest daim(7.1.2006) and 1.3b and stopped the test in 1942 with japan joining the party without a Ctd.

Maybe you backup your saves and your config.eu and then try to rebuild a clean HOI with 1.3a+b and then the DAIM-20060107.exe

Well, been a year or so since I've played HOI 2 and DAIM seriously. DAIM still going strong? How are the latest gameplay patches?

Hi , Graymane.

DAIM had its bad time and good times. But the DAIM for 1.3b is a good one. But also Vanilla has developed .
Vanilla AI is far better than a year ago and the patches had improved things like naval combat very much.

Ok , I try to help.
But first some questions:
1.)Which DAIM version are you using ?
2.) Do you use other mods?
3.) Hav you tried a new game after installing 1.3b ?

Spocky
 
Thank you!

1) I'm using the latest version (7.1.2006), and the bigpack
2) No, though I use some different graphics compiled in my own taste from GIP, mostly. However, when I tried it with SMEP, DAIM worked. On the other hand, SMEP didn't :rofl:
3) Actually, it seems to be named 1.3a, but it's the latest patch that is available from the 'download' section on this site. Perhaps there's an even later patch somewhere else? :confused: Never noticed before. Anyways, I'll re-install everything and make a second go I guess.
