Database mismatch (type=7/id 40106) already used!!!

That's the error I get when I try to run a game... Otherwise, everything looks to have been installed correctly except Messina is not controlled by anyone:eek:

I copied the files over a working DDArma 1.3... twice... And got the same error, can you please tell me what I did wrong... I'll be up all night until I figure this one out, I really wanted to play Wif again... I love this mod.
 
Ok, I changed the id to 40112 but now I just get the error with 40112 instead... I wanted to play as Italy anyway, so I moved the file out temporarily and now it doesn't want to load as it can't find it... know of any other free events...

Also, is Messina not being owned tied to the event?
 
I changed the first instance of event 40106 in the file to 40112 - the second one further down the list is the 'real' event.

With the error removed Messina is owned by Italy
 
I finally figured out that the event duplication was within that same file... Guess that was stupid on my part... but I'm still getting a message that says the scenario loaded with errors, after the bar is full... w/o it saying what error it was...

And, Messina is still not owned...

Aarrgh, I'll try and figure it out, thanks for the quick help and maybe you can provide more:) I'm still pretty new to modding HOI2
 
Thank you for your help, I think I finally got it:D

Not only that I learned something today about how I hate those stupid windows Vista notifications that pop up whenever I try to do anything to a file...

I look forward to much lost time tonight teaching the allies a lesson about underestimating the power of crazy Italians...
 
I downloaded the Titanium version last night and still got these errors. If the hotfixes exist since end of September, why haven't they been integrated into the download which was updated just some days ago?

After applying both hotfixes (btw, it might be a good idea to mention that the AI_ita.txt has to be put into the db/wif/events subfolder, not the db/events) I still get a notification about some ID being already used, though it works if I ignore that. Please do something about that, as it will put new players off which is a real shame! This mod is so great, son't let it be ruined by something that trivial... :(
 
I've got it to work this way:
- fresh install of Arma 1.3 Beta 2
- on top of it extract TitaniumC.rar from here, overwriting the files
- rename or delete 1936.eug to get rid of the double 1936 scenario
- applied hotfix from here
- find file italian_partition.txt or something like that, and edit it with notepad, there are two values of 40106, replace the second with 40112

Thanks! The installation instructions say we need to apply the graphics pack before the TitaniumC file, but I assume leaving it out will not cause any real errors.

I'll try what you suggested! Thanks! :)
 
It appears that TitaniumC archive also include the graphics, but I see no harm in installing the Platinium Graphics first. I didn't included it, though. I customize my graphics by restoring original map colors and map icons, and adding SKIF unit icons.
